Obsessions

I hate to admit it, but I am obsessed with a lot of different things. I just have one of those addictive personalitites. When I get into something, I am in it 100%. I cannot stop myself.

When I was super young, I used to have everything Barney. My entire outfit and room was covered with purple dinosaurs. I used to sit down in front of the television every day and sing the familiar songs. There was a line saying, "if you wish real hard, Barney can come see you." I wasted probably three birthday cake wishes on that dinosaur.


When I got older, I became obsessed with the Denver Broncos. The Barney stuff went elsewhere and the blue and orange moved in. I had posters all over the walls and ceilings, and newspaper cut-outs tacked onto my walls. Every clothing item I wore was either blue/orange, or said the Broncos on it. I am still obsessed with watching football and am always rooting my boys on. (In fact, this last year I got to go to my very first game in Denver. Tebow!!!)


I was also obsessed with Dawson's Creek. I lived for that show. I would stay up all night watching it when there was a marathon. I could not pull myself away from it. The show was very addicting. The show taught me many things and I began to grow up. My first crush was a character on the show.


I also decided to become a fan of cars. All I wanted was a Mustang. Not just a Mustang, but a 1967 Shelby Mustang. I would go crazy every time I saw a Mustang and completely go insane. I am sure my parents were ready to put me in a psych ward.


I am also a huge fan of Country Music. I have this thing where I have to buy all of a certain artist's albums. For example, my first concert I went to was Clint Black. I bought every CD he had. I still have a collection of CDs just to say I have them. This leads me to my next obsession. Every time I go to a concert, I must buy a Tshirt. I own quite a few Tshirts now, because I work at the Fieldhouse and get to see all the shows.


I am also a binge reader. Whenever I find a book or author I like, I read all of them. One of my favorite book series is the Rizzoli and Isles books series by Tess Gerritsen.


My most recent obsession is watching our Lady Bobcats play basketball. I find it to be so much fun. They are doing really well and I am getting to know the players. I even listen to the games on the radio if they are away. Go Cats!


There are a couple of TV shows i am obsessed with--Castle, Rizzoli and Isles, The Lost Girl, and Rookie Blue.
