Too Little Time

How can someone determine if they are obsessed? I watch TV and feel guilty if I am not working on one of my WIPs. I watch intently to see if anyone in a movie or on TV can be seen knitting. Since I am not sleeping well, I automatically decide that it must be because I haven't had time to do much knitting. I keep searching for new patterns that might be fun over the long haul. I'm already thinking about what project I should take when I go on a trip in October. When I'm working and reading about Canadian history I wonder what things women knitted. When I'm working and writing my book on Ireland, I keep looking for that "perfect place" to insert a sidebar about the Aran pattern. And, when I am working and writing my book on antidepressants, I wonder if these people would be better and med free if only they knit.

Nah, I'm not obsessed.

Hey! How about that?! I'm not obsessed either! It doesn't matter that the laundry piles up while I click my needles, we have eaten out or "take out" on more than one occasion because I was busy with my sticks and string and I'm looking at all the dust bunnies wondering if I can spin them into some kind of yarn.
