Admitting Addictions

As it is Addiction Awareness week in our corner of the world (actually, it probably is in your corner of the world too)...anyways, to honour the nature of this week I thought I would take one of the 12 steps and admit my newest addiction -- watching Grey's Anatomy. I realize that this addiction is not quite as serious as real addictions such as gambling, drinking, and drugs, and in no way am I trying to belittle the severity of the original intent of this week -- but I think my addiction to this show is also dangerous. I think I may be being quite silly and for that I do apologize but I just realized that today (Monday) I really wanted it to be Thursday...not because the week would almost be over and not because today was a bad day -- simply because Thursday is the day when the magic of Grey's Anatomy hits my living room. Pathetic. Really. I've always liked this show but of late I have become obsessed...normally, I can like a show and miss an episode and it really doesn't bother me that badly -- but now, I crave it and God forbid someone get in my way of watching my show! Phew.... It even got so bad that I wished that this show was a daily soap opera --- I love that world.... GAA -- I'm going to create a new group -- for those of you who know and understand the serious side of addictions -- you know what that stands for....But really, my thoughts and prayers to the many people and loved ones of people who struggle with addictions...with love....Trena
