worms

every once in a while i get addicted to a new thing. the once in a while refers to the changing addiction and not to giving up addictions all together. and it's not as if i don't try. as god is my witness, and he is, i know it since he tells me, i try. i unhooked my cables and only have two computer games on my pc. leisure suit larry and worms. but that would not stop an addiction.
i used to be addicted to writing lists. 10 favorite songs. 20 best movie lines. making music compilations on paper and then spending hours in trying to create the perfect collection on cassette, fade in-out and everything. and it's even harder when you only thought of 12 songs and your cassette sits 16 nicely. there is a limit to the amounts of times you can put that finishing track on "blood sugar sex magic". thus, obviously, it is easy for me to get addicted to a computer game.no matter how repetitive it is.
so now it's worms. world party. getting into giving them specific names and sounds that fit that perfect team in my head. and then the perferct arch-nemesis to that team. and then a team of geeks. everybody loves geeks. and becoming the best that ever was in it. or at least the best in my house ( which is not such a battle since my roommate does not play video games at all. unless you consider porn as video games. which he doesn't. which i do however). and i am improving and my level rises and soon i will be top worm! of course once again i'm not studying, losing sleep and late for work. i have to fight myself not to play. it's worse than cocaine since it has non of the cool appearence.only me, coffee and cookies at 2 am waiting for my worms to jump and dowm, shouting "we are the winners" (p.s for those who do play computer games, is there anything worse then controlling all the tricks and then play against a beginner friend and lose to his push buttons at random method, or worse yet, his jump kick method? and no, holocaust would not be accepted as worse)
my main concern now is what will happen when i get to top level. i know i'll have a good period of reading ( who decided that reading is better for you then games? 19th century ministers didn't think so) and studying and maybe finally putting up my shelves but eventually the itch will return. and then what? solitaire? hearts? scrabble? paint? i can definetly see myself addicted to drawing in paint. it actually happened.
perhaps it is time to erase all games from my computer and to go back to only cleaning my ears 5 times a da. haaa, the joy of an infection.
