Every time I say to myself "okay, I'll just read one more thread and then do some laundry (or whatever)" I then proceed to close that thread and stupidly click "view new posts", and yes....there are more. Arrrrrrgh!

Cant. Stop. Reading.

I am almost as addicted to these boards than I am to DC himself! Almost.

I can't take it! I'm losing my whole life by being stuck on the computer! I am getting a big butt! (Well - not really, since the David Diet is working wonders). But STILL!!!!

Thank God I don't read the fan fiction or I would NEVER leave my laptop...never. That's why I haven't even looked at those threads.

So all of you just stop it, will you? Just STOP IT!

Oh wait...did I just contribute to the madness by posting one of my own?

(off to hit refresh and see if anyone responded to this post already...)

Then, when i read THOSE, there will probably be another response to THIS thread.

laugh.gif Yep, me too! I know I should really stop the emails that come when a new post arrives on one of the threads I've been posting to, but can't help myself. Then of course, once I read that post, I have to check and see what new topics there might be....

Okay, back to work now! dry.gif

ahahah yes. I don't even log in unless I have several hours to waste.. no way I'm going "just to check a few threads" before going to work, no. We all know how it's going to end lol laugh.gif

I feel your pain! I really do! I feel it!
And I read the fanfic section!! I READ IT ALL DAY LONG!

But I must say, the David Diet really does work great!
cutiepatootie
laugh.gif guilty as charged! I am currently at work and my gosh I am procrastinating I swear, I've been putting off my work and making a mental note to myself to start working after I read a specific post, but then again I found myself replyng to every new posts! It's addicting! hahahah

Cooked For Cook
Aha! I am guilty for the Fanfics!! I started reading this one story during schooltime and I was soo addicted that I was reading it during computer class. Oops. blink.gif I just can not get off of here! It makes me be more addicted to David each and every day. dry.gif
boxwag
I feel your pain I really do. Just can't help myself. The whole I'll read one more thing never works. It always turns into I'll just read 3 or 5 more. lol Lately I've been saying to myself thats it NO MORE! Then I read one more and I'm done lol.

And I've just started to read the fanfics. So I'm starting to get worse.

But you know what?? I love every min of it lol tongue.gif

Well, well, join the crowd. I have 2 baskets of laundry, beggin to be done. When my husband comes home , I quick, go to my home page so he doesn't know I'm STILL on DC.org. I try to pull myself away but to no avail. The lure of more post or OMG more photos of David so I can sigh over them. It's like it so bad yet you don't want it to ever end!!! ohmy.gif
WordNerdATL
Hilarious post! Yep, David himself and all the posts are addicting. I never thought I could possibly get this addicted to someone/something.

Between tasks at work, I'll take a peek at the boards to see what's going on in DC land. So bad but I swear it improves my productivity by taking a quick break! tongue.gif I have not become addicted to the FanFics, but that's only because I have been hanging out there yet...now y'all are tempting me to go over there. Resistance is futile!
DavidCookieFan15
LOL that reminds me of myself. If I have things to do in the day I will post and then 30 seconds later someone else will post and I can't help but repost. It is addicting

I find new posts everyday (well obvisously) but what i mean is, There's a lot on this site that i have even seen yet, because i usually just stick to my favourite threads or whatever there called. smile.gif

I'm glad to see I'm not alone in this addiction. Hmmm...then again I kinda knew I wouldn't be. I keep thinking I need to go on because what if I miss something - a new picture, a new interview, some news, or just a great new conversation I need to be involved in. I spend WAY too many hours on here...it's so easy for one hour to turn into 4 or 5 (I don't get THAT crazy until everyone is in bed though).

Scott's great pontificating thread was nothing compared to the (thankfully removed) "is DC a virgin?" thread. Some people!

OK< it's 9:30pm, hubby is on the couch, I should be sitting next to him & the cat. But NO, I HAD to come & check out what's going on here. I'm all psyched up for The View tomorrow. So I can watch it alone! DC has a hold on me, to quote a favorite Beatles song. "seems that I'm always thinkin' of you. oh, ho ho, you do me wrong now, I just can't quit now, you really gotta hold on me" So good night all As I said before my brain hasn't stopped. At any given time there are DC songs swirling through it as I fall asleep and even as I wake sometimes. I got it baaad ohmy.gif

Ha, ha, I AM sitting on the couch with hubby and the cat!!!! However, got my laptop in my lap angled away from him so he doesn't really know what I'm up to on here, heh, heh. I'm always on the computer and was long before David, so that works in my favor, lol.

it's nearly 10:00pm - no hubby in this household. Sitting in the middle of the sofa - got a dog on my left and a dog on my right and my laptop in my lap (where else?). This is just too addictive... I should be doing housework, or working out, or SOMETHING! Maybe I should take my AI DVDs upstairs to my workout room and only allow myself to watch them while working out....
DC4breakfast
That is why I was addicted to the AI board, a constant stream of posting. But their stream seems to be slowing and it's really picking up over here now instead!

That's so funny. I was sitting on the couch with hubby and dog but had to go to the laptop to see what's going on here again (now that I'm not at work). Thank goodness for this laptop that I bought *almost* exclusively to feed the DC obsession! Hubby knows I'm obsessed so I don't even bother to angle the laptop away from him anymore. Hee, hee.

Whoa! I totally missed that one. Okay, well, I cannot see how that relates to his music, his career, his talent or his future. So glad they were on top of this right away.

I know I am on here constantly saving pictures God I've already run out of ink for the second time I used it up in a day and a half. My mom got really pissed I don't get to use my new ink for 2 months cuz my mom said thats how long it should have lasted. I will space my printting out more next time expeshaly cuz my mom said if I do it again she'll tare all my David pictures down off my walls. I criyed hearing that so yah NEVER AGAIN will I use up ink so quickly!!!! David is LOVE!!!!
lizajd
Lol! I fall asleep with his songs in my head and wake up with them there, too! I thought I was crazy, but I have soooo given into my DC addiction! I can't wait to see The View either. I was going to be able to stay home and watch it, but I ended up with clients filling my day, and I really do need to make some money!!! I need to be able to feed this obsession. The David Diet has been working for me, too, because I have lost 11 lbs so far! It has been a great jumpstart to take off the weight I have been wanting to for a long time. Now I am into my diet full throttle.

I hear you all with how addicting this board is! I always try to give myself a time limit, and when I look at the time, it is usually a half hour past when I told myself I would get off! I am so sooooo bad!

Yeah, it was someone's first post to the fansite too... either a total idiot or a troll, if you ask me.
Cookey's Fan
For one sure thing, I find this board wholly addictive too!! tongue.gif

Normally when I go to other message boards, I only pop by there 2-3 times a day. Right here, I've a record of checking it back 6-7 times a day, given that the number of new posts flowing in here are seamless. I may never know what I'm missing out! laugh.gif

And yes, I too loved reading Scott's pontification thread - he certainly has highlighted points that I can well agree with. And no, no offense taken - he still has my respect. smile.gif
Demonhuntress
I'm totally addicted to this board too! I am not working at the moment, so the first thing I do in the mornings is to log on to the site and be at it reading and making posts for hours, the rest of everything else can wait. I really have to tear myself away from here, it is hard as hell to log off, believe me. The posts are made so quickly and I really don't wanna miss any of it. When I'm not at my pc I keep wondering if anybody replied on a photo I've posted or a remark I made, that is if I'm not thinking about David at that time, and then as if by magic I find myself right back to the bloody computer again, damn, I just can't stay away.

its almost 6PM here and i just came home from work,hubby's not yet around just checking this site before he came! though he knows my obsession, i just feel awkward when he sees me.. gosh, this thread is totally addicting.. dry.gif

Well, now it's 8:30 AM, at least I have laundry going , I'm here, of course, eating my oatmeal reading posts. I'm timing all my to-do stuff here today around the View! My hubby asked if I could go & pick up some plumbing parts for him I said after NOON I can. I'll be on a DC high by then after the View!

Yeah, me too. Addicted to my laptop long before David. Just a little more so now I guess, hopefully not REALLY noticeably more.

And I do that too! Always angling the computer away from hubby and kids. I get SO annoyed if they look over my shoulder. I always have another windw or two open to quickly switch to. And then if they sit behind me or something....grrrr. I have to stop reading for a few minutes until I can angle myself back!

Don't they understand? lol

I've been doing the Bowflex with David. wink.gif

Can't watch the videos while I do it because people will start to suspect my obsession, but I always listen to him on my iPod while I work out. I discovered yesterday that the best ones to listen to while working out are the Axium songs. They are more hardcore tongue.gif and get me all pumped up!

Yeah, I'm pretty addicted to my laptop too - even before DC.

I'll try Bowflexing with Axium... sounds like a great idea!

If someone ever investigated my photobucket album, I'd probably be arrested for stalking.

I know what you mean. I have a dentist appointment at 12:30 - thank God it isn't earlier!

I'm sitting here out on my deck, eating breakfast, the breeze blwing, sun is shining...it's kinda nice being with DC outside. After all, he's outside on my desktop too:



Grrr...my daughter just sat down next to me - why can't she sit across from me? I had to stop typing, after giving her the "please don't look over my shoulder" lecture.

Pretty bad when this addiction is causing me to ignore my kids!!! I want it to stop, but I don't. It seems like life would be so boring now without him and you guys. You know what I mean?

OMG, I know!! I started moving all of my photos from my pictures folder onto photobucket, just in case hubby finds the over 300 pics of DC I have collected...

But I lost track of what I transferred over, and some were in iPhoto and another folder, so now I have duplicates and I think I'm missing some...yikes. That is another 3 hours at least just ORGANIZING (and editing) my pictures.

lol my mother won't let me have david cook photos on the computer because she knows if she let me he would be on the desktop and I would have a folder with like 1000 pictures of him in it LOL. She is so unfare.

Saved By DC
Lifeline. This site is my lifeline. This is the one place where I lose myself completely from anything and everthing around me for hours. And usually even after logging off after those many hours, I long for the next hook-up again. I know that I have a serious problem when my hubby tells me that he will be away for work and in my heart I sing "hooray..I can be surfing this site as long as I like without having to sneak around". But the feeling of euphoria I get with each session here on everthing about DC and getting to know all you cook'fied people out there who is just like me, makes me feel so worth it. Like DC said after his win, he hope the feeling never ends. I hope it never ends for me too.
DavidCookieFan15
aww I agree! I don't know what I would do without this site. I go to sleep at night wondering what I will read first when I get up in the morning. When my parents go to work I spend countless hours on this site and even when I log out, I spend the rest of my day thinking and laughing about everything totally hilarious you all have said on here. I have said a few times and I will say it again, You guys are like my second family.
