Taking Time off from Obsessions

I have a problem. I get obsessed with things very easily, and I devote all my time to one thing, until I find something else to be obsessed about. Its like every few weeks, Im doing something new. Heres a brief rundown of my latest obsessions.

Nicaragua
Halo 2 MLG
Spriting
MSN Chat
Zombies
Freerunning
Game Design
Comic Writing
Music Creation
Kite Surfing

Okay, thats in the last 6 months.... I jump around to each. I trained my ass off for the MLG Tourney in Halo 2, only to not go. I started writing again, hoping to work with a published artist, only to drop the ball and never complete my script. The I spent the better part of a few weeks cruising the game design circuit. Then on to spriting for MUGEN for a few months. Then searching for Freerunning stuff, then comic collecting, then back to spriting, and on and on and on.

Do I have ADD or something? Its fucking up my work, because I'd rather be chatting all day than to be doing my work. Its a miracle I havent been fired yet. I think I need to stop this shit, and get my head straight before I can even think about getting back to any of it.

No more MSN, no more spriting, no more finding new shit to obsess over. My wife hates it. No surprise there. She hates almost everything I do. Yet she does nothing? Unless you count reading and Su Doku. Props to her for raising the kid though.

My new obsession should be shutting the fuck up, and finding out who I am, being honest with myself and those around me. Hey, at least Im sticking to the blog this time around..... right?
