[quote="jeffdaweasel"]I know, I know, I know.
Look, here's a 100% true story. One day, I saw some people doing construction work in the mini-mall across the street from me. Intrigued, I stopped by and asked what they were working on. They told me they were building a new sushi restaurant.
Sushi. Within 300 yards of me. Like a poppy field next door to a heroin addict.
Well, despite the disbelief of my friends, I didn't go into that sushi place ONCE for the first year it was open. Not once. And then finally, I was here with a friend and he said, "I really feel like sushi. Is there anyplace close to here?"
I begrudgingly pointed directly outside, and we proceeded to walk over, and then the worst thing happened: I found out it was REALLY good sushi. And what happened after that? For the past two years, I haven't gone more than four days without stuffing my face with hamachi nigiri, spicy tuna hand rolls, unagi, maguro, rainbow rolls, spider rolls, hama negi, various sashimi and the like.
I don't know what this has to do specifically with why I haven't ordered the movie yet, if anything. But I feel there's some kinship between the two situations, and I'll leave it at that.[/quote]
Methinks I spy a little self-knowledge regarding the addictive obsession thing in both instances. In all honesty, that's why I haven't bought it yet either
. It would be all to easy to turn the DVD into a Tool For Workcrastination as I watch it over and over and over and over ... I'm saving it as a reward for when I hit a particular work milestone this fall.
This high degree of personal insight on your part makes it hard to say fuck off, though.
