Why has this curse befallen me? How could I have been so blinded with lust and need that I would forsake my domesticated responsibilites?
I’m scared. Right now, I’m even vulnerable.
Admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery, correct?
My 2 biggest weaknesses have combined to leave me in as close to a vegetative state as I could possibly be in without unconscious drooling.
Golf and XBox.
I purchased Tiger Woods 2004. Yeah, I know it’s older but it only cost 4 bucks so shut the hell up.
Anyway, it’s apparently gotten so bad that I’m talking about it in my sleep, so says Trish. I can’t disprove her but she claims I stated “Wait a minute, let me finish this hole!”
I’m glad I was only talking about golf.
Evidently I need some damn help, but first….I need to finish my 4 day tournament in Lakeland, Fla. I’m 9 under par so far.
Wish me luck!

Oh Lord, now this is scaring me! You sure you and my husband weren’t separated at birth? Tiger Woods! He plays that in his sleep!

My husband is still desperately searching for a Nintendo Wii. I’m not really being honest when I tell him I’m sorry he’s had to wait so long for his Christmas present…

We need to get you out of the house. Want to meet me at a bar for a few games of Golden Tee?

I’ve found that neglecting my domesticated duties will often keep me away from the hole, and unlike you I’m not referring to golf.
When you’re playing X-box golf, does the beer girl still come around?

As if the pink boxers were proof enough, you are totally under suspicion now mister! “Next hole?”
February 22, 2007 at 10:55 am |
Tell Trish not to get worried about your talking about another ‘hole’ unless you give it a name!!! LOL……..just take a break from Tiger Woods for a bit….take 2 aspirin and call me in the morning!

My fiance’s addiction is worse. It is hunting. He is constantly watching videos on hunting and playing animal calls on the radio. Plus he has multiple games on Playstation 2. I think golf and hunting are boring, so I don’t know how someone can become addicted to these.
February 22, 2007 at 11:13 am |
I’m sorry, I just don’t get video games. We had a Nintendo, way back when they first came out. I just never got into it.
And tag you’re it! Come on over and see what it’s about!

I just don’t understand the pleasure people get from trying to hit a tiny ball into a tiny hole many, many yards away! Then spend ages walking after and finding said ball before repeating actions all over again.
Mind you I quite enjoy golf on the wii so maybe I’ll turn!
February 22, 2007 at 11:31 am |
I think she is just assuming you are playing golf. Don’t worry. Your secret is safe with me.
February 22, 2007 at 11:34 am |
You definitely need help, although, I am intrigued that you were able to quit long enough to blog about it. So maybe you don’t need help. You just need prioritizing.

Your a crazy man slick! I cannot say that I don’t find the computer amusing (I just started playing World of War Craft with my husband). I find it relaxing. You can create this really cool character and then go out and kill things! I can see how you can get caught up in your xbox.

Good luck! My children used to have a Game Cube. Until my husband discovered he loved it. And then I had to break the Game Cube. Errrrr, rather, “the children” broke the Game Cube.
Evil is my middle name…

when i dream about “golf” its always a threesome, and the beer girl never leaves.

River Rat-
Ha…sounds like your husband and me need to hang out some!
Kelley-
You should be ashamed of yourself…
Mist-
What the hell is Golden Tea??
Chuck-
You’re right…no chores, no sex. That’s why it’s killin’ me!
About the beer girl? Hell, I wish
Nelly-
E. has already claimed those pink boxers
Martie-
Soooo, I’m safe there!
Ha…the only “holes” I dream of are called 1st hole, 2nd hole, 3rd hole, etc.
Reba-
Boring? Girl, that’s blasphemy!
Dixie-
I used to love the old Nintendo. It was the shit while it was out.
beccy-
Well, I actually suck at real golf but I guess it’s the enjoyment of just “hanging out” with whoever I’m playing with.
Lynda-
I knew I could count on you
Shelli-
See? I’m getting better already!!
Tracy-
Video games makes you lose track of time. The proof is me running around trying to get shit done before Trish gets home because I’ve spent all day on the XBox.
lol…you have a hidden violent streak huh?
Julie-
You broke a GameCube?! I’m reporting you!
E.-
Ah, you’re back in town. I’d always be afraid to ask what your dreams consist of.

MY hubby actually casts fishing rods in his sleep! He loves to fish!!
Thanks for the add!

YOU GO GIRL!!!

I have spent many Friday and Saturday nights with guy friends getting drunk and playing Tiger Woods golf. Wii also has really fun golf games.

The OTHER Trish
My husband and I played golf once. He hit his golf ball into the tennis courts. I think the end score was 15-love. I couldn’t hit my ball with the club, so I just picked it up and threw it. Then we got bored, so we took a couple of golf carts and raced through the paths in the wooded area. Apparently, that’s frowned upon. We then went down to the docks and took out a catamaran. Since we still had clubs with us, we assumed we were still playing golf. We didn’t find anywhere to tee off, but we did hit a rock .. with the boat… and a fish is now wearing a $400 pair of sunglasses that used to belong to the guy sitting at the front of the boat. We think the fish also mugged him for his wallet while he was in the water. We don’t think we’ll be invited back to the resort…
I never did find out what our score was. Every time someone said “par” we thought they meant “bar” and they just had a speech impediment.
Golf RAWKS!

You’re not the only Xbox Addict. My brother in law has been known to be playing on the thing for 12 hours straight.
February 22, 2007 at 9:53 pm |
How is the weather in Lakeland ?
February 22, 2007 at 10:19 pm |
What?!?!?!? No beer girl??? Damn it Slick – I was strutting me best stuff in your dream in my best beer girl outfit. Quit trying to tell these people I don’t exist!
February 23, 2007 at 4:12 am |
Could you not hang out in the pub then? Or take a long walk over green areas and hang out? I bet it’s cheaper than joining a golf club!
Or am I just being a bit dumb?
February 23, 2007 at 7:35 am |
NINE under par? That’s why your talking about it in your sleep!! I’m lucky if I get under 9 on a hole in real time. Good luck “winning”
February 23, 2007 at 8:25 am |
I don’t play the games on xbox.. but I am addicted to the computer.. i think I need help too
February 23, 2007 at 10:13 am |
I have no words. Just more Visine for your eyes and lotion for your um, hand. Enjoy.
