obsessive compulsive and addicted

I think I have a bit of an obsessive personality....for example, I just ate an entire pack of oreos. not because I am a junk food addict, but because I just cannot stand to see any oreos left in the pack. Inthe same light, whenever I open a bottle of soft drink, I can't relax until I have drunk it all. I feel like rainman or something (lol).

I have been told that I am a bit of a 三日坊主 (mikka bozu) - I don't know if there is an equivalent of this in English (??), but it means that I start a lot of things, but only ever continue them for a few days, then give up. It's pretty true. Take this blog, I was all keen to write one blog a day for a month, and I have so far, but gee it is getting a bit of hard work(hehe) I hope I can get through the month posting every day. But me starting this blog came high on the heels of "falling out" of my latest addiction, facebook. I have recently signed up for mixi too - I can see a new addiction comin' on (sung to the xxxx beer ad theme song tune).

Soooooo, here is a list of my 三日坊主-type addictions that have all come, and passed:
* yahoo blog (lasted about 1 year? actually only started to show off photos of our honeymoon to South America)
* K's blog. haven't uploaded photos for people at home to look at for a few months. sigh.
* a photo of K a day. I try to make up for it though by taking 20 photos a time when I do take them - overkill, I know. just call me バカ親 (actually, I mean 親ばか, oops!!)
* facebook. My poor fluff-friend would starve to death if it werent for friends such as N that are still obsessed with facebook, and feed and pat her every other day. Thanks N!
* mixi.
* cleaning the house. actually, this was never really an addiction, but I go through stages when I am pretty good at keeping the cleaning up. Then it lapses......for a LONG time. like now.
* baking cakes. (see yesterday's post) I think I might be on another addicion here. I feel like baking a carrot cake next. And anzac biscuits
* exercise. The most exercise I do at the moment is picking up the remote to change channels as I lie on the couch all day (bit of an exaggeration). I can't believe that I used to take part in (mini)triathlons, go cycling up and over mountains etc etc. would like to get back into it sometime.
* oreos - yum!
