Addiction

The first step to recovery is admiting that you have a problem...right? I believe that it is. If not it should be. Well I have a problem. Its not like it's a life or death kind of problem but it is quite expensive. I have an addiction to movies. I have to have every movie. I feel like it sometimes is the essence that keeps me alive, having movies. Weird I know. I have around oh, 1100 dvds and I dont know how many on vhs. I havent even seen about 10 - 15% of the movies I own. I thought maybe when I moved out on my own...or in my case with my fiance, that I would no longer feel the need/want to have as many movies. HAHAHA...no such luck. They dont' have a meeting called Movie Collectors Anonymous. I guess its better then being addicted to blow or marijuana or even alcohol. The thing is I know that I wont watch half of the movies that I have in my lifetime and those movies will be so cheesy and old by the time my kids are old enough to watch them. So they wont want them, but there is no possible way that I could part with them and give them away. It just isnt happening. So I'm lost as to what to do in this situation. I guess just keep going and who cares...I might be able to quit, but there isnt any possible way it could be cold turkey. It would have to be gradual. But even then, when I go out somewhere and its showing all the new movies that have came out, I'll feel the desire to get them. How do people quit. Temptations are everywhere. I think it would be impossible to quit any kind of habbit. Another addiction of mine is my fiance. I cant go 15 minutes without looking at her. I feel as if I'm in another world if I do. Work days are hard, I have to go from 8 in the morning till around 5:30 at night before I can see her and sometimes longer then that since she coaches basketball. Ohhh life...so hard...if only I were superman. Then the only thing I'd have to worry about is Kryptonite. Ahhh yessss to be superman. Adios.
