Coming out of the closet with my Addiction...

To some of my close family and friends...this is not a surprise to you...to others this will probably come as a big surprise....I am an Addict. Yes, I am addicted to this little thing called GUITAR HERO. It all started back in December when my sister had us all over for her birthday. She let me play my niece and nephews new game called Guitar hero. Well, once I played I was HOOKED. And once we had a Wii...I'm sure you can guess the game mommy chose to buy. My Sister in Law Tayton came down to visit and after countless times making fun of me on the phone...she also became an addict in one day. As soon as she made it back to her house after that weekend...she had a Wii and Guitar Hero. And she is a great trash talker- and well...the competitiveness in me came out FULL force. So when she'd take a picture of her score and send it to me...I'd stay up all night until I beat her score. And then of course give her the courtesy call back just so she'd know. For my birthday they preordered me the new Guitar Hero Aerosmith. It came out this week and I got it in the mail yesterday and well...lets just say I stayed up all night playing and have three songs left before I pass the game. I am sure before I go to bed tonight...I will have played every song. :0) Tay sent Hadley a onsie that said, "Aunt Tay is my Guitar Hero." Yep, she had it made for her...but Tay...we all know who Hadley's REAL guitar hero is. But I let her wear your onsie anyway. ;-) But she keeps asking me why it says Tay instead of Mommy. After all I was rocking to guitar hero with Hadley in my belly 40 weeks pregnant......LOL.
Anyway, you know you have an addiction when you have your kids saying, "Mommy Rocks," "Mommy's the Master," and they ask, "Can we watch you jam?" I jump around, kick my legs to the side, spin in circles and really keep my audience excited!! Even Hadley watched me rock out last night. She would cry when I'd stop- it was hilarious!
So there you have it folks- Guess it could be worse, right?

Playing Aerosmith for my Groupies last night:

And what the shirt should REALLY say:

You are too funny. I have a feeling if we had that game, I would get nothing done! It was good to see you at Creekside the other day. I would say my new addiction is blogging because I just started!

Admitting you have an addiction, step one. Step two, admitting the truth. Lacey, let's be real with your audience, there are 4 levels to mastering the game. Easy, Medium, Hard & Expert, you are STILL on level Easy, I am at Expert. I will teach you how to play the game with 4 fingers, it will be challenging, but if you practice I think you can compete at my level.

P.S. Don't worry Gavin, Ellie & Hadley, Aunt Tay will be your true Guitar Hero.

Love you guys!

Oh Tay, I just like to make the game last as LONG as possible so I start on Easy....then I work my way up. But if it makes you feel better you can keep telling yourself my score is higher than yours because I'm not on the "Hard" level. :0)

You crack me up! I'd love to see you do this in person one day. I'm sure it's quite the workout! If that's the case maybe I should get one...
