Obsessive

I have a tendency to be a tad bit obsessive. It's just in my nature. If I really like something, I really really really like it. I live to eat and breathe it. I inundate myself until I'm swimming in it. And sometimes situations just happen to lend themselves to only let my obsession flourish and grow. For the past couple of months I've been completely and utterly obsessed with a particular band, who shall remain nameless. I don't know why. I am not a fan of their genre of music and the lyrics to their songs are really quite, strange. I'm not sure I understand them much but that doesn't stop me from liking/loving/living for them! This band du jour just happens to be up for two MTV Video Music Awards (aka VMA's) and MTV.com has so graciously provided obsessive fans like moi the opportunity to turbo vote for their favorite nominee. Meaning, you can rack up obscene amounts of votes for your favorite band by simply playing a game. Count me in!

Let's just say I hope I don't get carpal tunnel syndrome from this!
