You're My Obsession

I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but I go through periods where I get unnaturally obsessed with one particular thing to a point where I get tired of it and usually abandon it. It ranges from foods to music to people to activities. It's like I can never have enough of it to fill my want/need, but then it dissipates as fast as it came. I become bored. It becomes ordinary. One good thing that comes out of this is that I could never really be "addicted" to any one particular thing for an extended period of time, because that period of time usually doesn't last very long. What isn't good about this is that my people connects tend to waiver over time....once I get bored them, I supposed.
Anyway, here is a list of things I'm currently obsessed with. It may change soon.

1. Sandwiches- I love sandwiches. You can't have a bad sandwich especially when it is made with everything you like. However sloppy to eat, however unappetizing it is to others. I can eat a sandwich for every meal every day and be satisfied. I used to work for Subway. I was an amazing sandwich maker. I wish they paid more because I would definitely go back and make sandwiches for a living.

2. Jalapenos- I don't know where this came from. It's a new obsession. Guess where I put them? Yup, my sandwich.

3. Pizza- I once had pizza 5 times in 6 days. Twice on one of those days. That's not ok. Except, if you order the right things, it's actually one of the healthier meals you can have. And cheaper. I like my chicken, tomato and onion pizza or a nice barbecue chicken pizza. THE pizza place to be at is Pizza Park on 66th street and 1st Ave. I will travel from the Bronx to eat there. I believe they are also opened 24 hours. That's a win-win for everyone.

4. My Blackberry- No surprise. I got it on January 26th and have not put it down since. They don't call it a crackberry for nothing. I definitely should attend a meeting about this obsession. I'm not sure if it's the instant Pandora application that is so appealing or the fact that I can be on Facebook with just a push of a button. Or that I can take pictures and videos at any time or....you get the idea. I'm in love.

5. Blogging- I write my thoughts down all the time. I always did. Except, now I type them out and post them for the few of you who care about what I think (or are just entertained by me). This is where obsession 4 comes in handy. I can write things down any time a good idea strikes me. That’s usually several times a day. I can write down 3 different blog ideas in one day and faster than I can complete a 3 page paper for class. That reminds me, I should probably finish the two incomplete papers that are in my bag….

6. Garbage- No. Not trash. The band. Their album was one of the first I ever got. I’ve been listening to their older stuff nonstop. I like pretending I’m 12 years old, in my room and listening to Shirley Manson’s voice come out of my purple radio. It’s one of the best albums in my opinion. ‘Supervixen’ is an amazing opening song for the album. This makes me happy….and it’s not even raining ;-)

7. photographs- I used to take pictures all the time. I like it. It’s easier than painting or scrap booking. Who the hell has time to clean up the mess that is left after those activities? I’ve been walking around NYC taking pictures and getting back in touch with my city. We’re always so busy and tend to forget how amazing our city is when we’re barreling down the street, looking at our crackberry, listening to our ipod and carrying 4 bags. Chill out. Take a picture. You can sometimes see things better afterwards.

That’s it for now. These are some things I just got over:

1. Salads
2. Queens of the Stoneage
3. Flyleaf
4. Lady Gaga
5. Paul Newman’s pineapple salsa
6. Jamba Juice
7. staying out WAY past my bedtime on weeknights
8, The Office
