Obsess Much?

By Peter DKip

Ha! I couldn’t help but steal the title from my good friend Christine at her site.  I’m self tagging to write 5 things I obsess over:

  1.  Gaming:  I can’t even put this one lower on the list.  I have a facination with the complexities programmed into the great games that are made in this age.  My current fav. game has to be World of Warcraft.  What a time consumer.
  2. Writing:   I’m constantly thinking about my story and where I’m taking it.  I’m reviewing how it’s progressing, I’m reviewing the next chapter that I’m writing (on hold at the moment), I’m reviewing how the rest of the story is going to pan out, I’m reviewing what I’m going to have to change, I’m even contemplating having that first review by someone else.  *shudder*
  3. My Wife:  What!?!  I can’t help it.  She’s just so gosh darn….lovable.  I just can’t help but give her a hug when she’s within reach.
  4. Computers:  Perhaps I was a mainframe in a previous life.
  5. My Kids:  Okay, it’s not that they are the last thing on my list because they rank that low.  They are great kids.  I love to have fun with them every day.  We wrestle, game, play imaginary games, socialize, bike, learn, read and watch TV together.  And with that, I think having them at this part in my list leaves all of you readers with a warm fuzzy feeling.

    World of frickin’ Warcraft! I’m a wife – my husband is hooked on this game. Enough said? I understand getting hooked on something like gaming… I used to be like that too… but when my husband left at midnight to go to Best Buy to buy the second edition of WOW he had officially lost me. ;) Great list!

    Hey there. My wife was having issues with my interest in the game. (Now I didn’t go so far as leaving at midnight to pick up the expansion pack or anything.:)) She decided to give it a try. (I did some coaxing.) She’s now drawn into it herself. We just recently upgraded one of our computers so now we can both play together. This, I think, is the beauty of this for me right now. Where she and I would previously sit down on the couch together to watch what ever happened to be on T.V., we will now be able to sit down together in front of our respective computers and interact with each other in an activity which stimulates the mind. Honestly, I’ve not seen my wife have this much fun in years.
    Now if we can only manage to prevent the overlords of Blizzurd from taking over our lives forever! :)
