Kelly - with coffee.....ALWAYS! : )

Matthew - I would wear it.

Sarah - LOL!  especially you....but in which blog?

Allison - or when my DSL is down....you run out of the office to find Internet access elsewhere.

Venice - you are not alone.

Beth - I think you're there, no doubt about it.

Unfortunately, blogging is not the only addiction for my Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. But I told my therapist it's a healthy outlet! I'm not sure if he believed me... =P

Good Blog and how true it is. I will be away from Friday till next week sometime I am attending an out of state wedding and will be fishing my way back home so I don't know how long it will take. But, I promised myself I would leave the laptop behind. I hope nobody passes me on points!

Gary - you are a strong man.  We just took a 3-day cruise and decided I was going to disconnect, but took the laptop just in case I was week....you would be glad to know I made it through the whole weekend without Internet but when I got back, I was stuck on the computer for 12 hours without rest.  : )

Ann - you may not know what some are....but you're on your way.....you have clear signs

Come on SUSIE - please continue the list! I'll start:

51.  You read the list and think......I don't know what some of things were, so I must not be a blogaholic!

Hey Ines - what about "comment-aholic"?  Now THAT I could truly have some days.......there are days that I leave so many comments around the rain that I can't count that high.  I've learned that from our Lovely TLW!

#51 - You leave comments just to get a response from your "fellow blog-a-holics" so you can go back and check later and make more comments! 

Ummm...does THAT qualify as a start Ines?

Susie - that does not qualify as a start - that qualifies as a confirmation!.....but good try.
