Addiction

Quinn's health class is studying addictive behaviors and has required each student to think of something to which he might be addicted. Quinn brought home a certificate that we both had to sign, pledging that for four weeks, he would not make unnecessary purchases. I suggested that he is more addicted to playing video games than spending money. He replied, "Duh! But then I'd have to stop playing video games!"

Addiction. The first step is admitting you need help. We aren't there yet.

I paused after the first sentence, closed my eyes, and tried to imagine what the rest. Quinn makes me laugh. (As do you.) :-)
