Dragonlance...
3 November 2005 14:59I have such a freaking addictive personality. Now that I've restarted reading the Dragonlance books, I MUST READ THEM ALL. Even the 50 or so that have been published since I stopped collecting them. Faugh. At least I don't plan on buying all of those... just borrowing them from the library or something.
But why do I even have this urge? The series is total cheese! Most of the books are crap! I won't gain any respect for reading the entire series; I might even lose it from a few people!
I do this obsessive thing... Before the Dragonlance revival it was Wicked, and it's been Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Joss Whedon shows, Dashboard Confessional, A Song of Ice and Fire, Radiohead, MST3k - books, movies, TV, music, you name it. I get a glimmer of like for something and I dive head-first into the sea of fandom. I even collected the original Pokemon cartoon on tape for a while (I still have a few taking up space in boxes - should do something about them.)
It all started with the Babysitter's Club. I blame Ann Martin!!

The Disney vacation Super Special, where they met the two kids on the cruise, one of whom said something about, "Since our parents were k-" and Kristy was trying to brainstorm what word the girl could've been saying and thought, "Kicked? Kissed? No..."
Heh.
