My summer addiction

They say the first step ingetting rid of an addiction, is realizing you have one. Well I have come to realize that not only do I have an obsession but an addiction. I know, I know, I can't let it get out of hand or i'll have to seek medical help, but I can handle this, I can. I think...

It all started on a boring summers day at home. The only other person home was my sister Kelsey and she was upstairs, reading. I was bored out of my mind so I decided to try it. It couldn't hurt. Right? I typed in those two magical words and BAM! I pressed the enter button and millions of results filled my screen. I chose on of the first links, that seemed the most reliable for my needs. i clicked and KABOOM! there it was. The colors flooded my eyes, the motion captivated my body and mind, it was exhilerating. Each arrow I pressed moved the pieces, building rows, creating lines, advancing my score. My obsession or addiction, you may say, came to the point that I was clicking those arrows everyday, constantly trying to defeat my personal record, at every chance I had. For a few nights in a row, I even went into a state of "post-tetris-play-mode", where I invisioned the screen and all of the pieces forming into place and what I would do to keep my high score in different challenging situations. I am addicted to free tetris. (click on free tetris to play)

Omigoodness! This happened to me around the same time in my life! I was a young tween bored on a summer day when I happened upon the game of Tetris on the computer downstairs in the kitchen. I became obsessed. Addicted. I even had visions of Tetris during my sleeping and waking hours!

Good to know it wasn't just me but a family thing.
