ADDICTIONS
Oh my word, I can’t believe I’m actually in the
Tiki Hut! This place is amazing, guys. You should see it. The view, the
drinks, that hunky waiter over there (yep, it’s definitely time to order a
refill). I could become addicted to this.
Speaking of addictions (you like my sneaky segue
there?), I just had a book released this month called Addicted to Ansley.
That’s the book I will be giving away today, in fact. Since I’m a sucker for
happily ever after, it’s one of those sweet romance stories where the hero had
an addiction to drugs when he was younger. But now that he’s older, his
addiction falls on a lovely lady named Ansley.
And being that “addiction” is the word of the
day, and I’m at Carol’s place where she is so well known for her top ten lists,
I thought I’d list my top ten addictions.
First a quick definition: ADDICTION is an
abnormal compulsive dependency for some habit.
Okay, so here goes my list :
10. Kissing and smelling my daughter’s hair
9. Reading “one more chapter”
8. Writing at work. Shh. Don’t tell on me, please.
7. Seeing what’s new on GoodReads every time I get online.
6. Checking my email inbox every few minutes.
5. Potato chips
4. and Oreo cookies
3. Stealing sips from my husband’s cup, no matter what he’s drinking.
2. Checking my sales rating on Amazon.

2. Checking my sales rating on Amazon.
And number one…
1. Playing with my bridged tooth with my tongue.
After months of that foreign object being in my mouth, it still feels funny.
So, there are my abnormal compulsive habits.
What is one of your addictions?

Love you blog Carol!
Hi everyone!
And welcome, Linda! Hope you have a great time hanging here this week :)
I'm addicted to Hot Tamales.
And Carol I feel right at home here, are those shamrocks for St. Patrick's Day? I'm Irish you know. Are you?
BTW I'd never have known the Tiki Hut wasn't really in the south Pacific!
My hubby would say I'm addicted to running the vacuum. (Perhaps. BUt we have white carpets!)
Love to see people writing NA btw!
Hot tamales is a new one, though! Very cool.
I can totally be addicted to chocolate at times too, especially when peanuts, almonds, or peanut butter is involved!
Gum - my favorites are the minty kinds!
I usually fall behind when it comes to "one more comment." Sometimes I just don't know what to say and don't want to look stupid, so I just try to come off as the strong, "silent" type!!
I think my husband is addicted to the vaccuum. But my 3-year-old is totally afraid of it. I have no idea why it freaks her out.
Oh, and I AM totally addicted to NA books lately. Can't read enough of them!
I've always loved the taste and smell of coffee.
Congrats on the new release, Linda!
Congrats on the book!
And you're another hot tamale fan, huh? That is so interesting.
Julie - Whenever you figure out how to break the email addiction let me know, thanks!
S.P. - I guess great minds ADDICT alike too ;)
The book sounds awesome! :)
......dhole
Happy Monday, Carol.
Too funny and so true about new dental work/objects LOL!
And Carol...LOVE your new pic with the flower on the sidebar :)
Linda - I had a chance to reread your list. One thing else besides coffee ... kettle cooked jalapeno potato chips. Can't. Stop. Eating.
Maria - Welcome to the Tiki Hut! Your home away from home :) Yes, shamrocks. Husband holds claim to the Irish in our family. I'm English on my mom's side and German on my dad's. Mostly.
Y'all be nice to the cabana boys!
As for me - hot tea. Black, not green. (And don't even get me started on herbal.)
When my kids were younger, definitely #10. Now that they're smelly middlegraders, not so much. hahaha
Great top 10!
Jemi - Ooh! A tea drinker. Nice!
Donna - I have this word game on my iPad that's called 7 little words, and it's totally addictive too!
MPax - The cover guy is Jason Aaron Baca. He's pretty famous for romance covers!
Rula - Baby puppies are soooo soft. I love them. I totally agree with you on the new profile pictures. It's so lovely, Carol.
Carol - Anthing with Jalapeno in it makes me a total coward. I'm not a spicy person, and yes, yes, I'm totally weird that way!
CATachresis - A MacBook Air! GASP. I want one. I'll trade you my first born for it. She's potty trained. Mostly.
Helena - Are you Team Sheldon or Team Leonard? I like that show too.
CD - Oh good, someone thinks I might actually be normal. I'm so telling my husband this one! Cheers to the "black" tea drinker!
Melissa - Mums the word! Wink Wink!
Jo-Anne - My hubby is a Coca-Cola addict. So, since I steal from him, I drink it often too! I might have to get him to buy some Coke Zero so I can see what it tastes like!
Shelly - Hi! Nice to meet you. It's always so exciting to see your rating drop, isn't it?
Elephant - Ooh...addictions you don't want to admit to. Now I really want to hear those!
Helena - I love BBT, too :)
Interesting. Never read a book about a recovered addict in love. Sounds so, so interesting. Hope the book is doing well.
I used to be addicted to checking Amazon too, but I've brought that under control - with great restraint, I'll add.
I suffer from "Fiction Addiction" amongst other things...
~Nas~
J. L. - I wish I had your restraint. Sigh. Someday maybe.
Misha - And you actually WANT your chocolate habit to be under control? Kidding. That's awesome!
Hi Michelle - I love that term. Fiction Addiction. I'm so using it on my hubby the next time he complains about me reading too much. Thanks!
Romance Book Haven - Amen!
Hi Carol!
Tell your friends!
Even though I have a love/hate relationship with it....
My latest addiction is knitting.

Right now, I'm very addicted to your #9 and #2.
Good luck!
