Top Three Things I Am Addicted To At The Moment
Posted by Pike in life of pike, rambles, random, tags: life of pike, rambles, random1. STRING CHEESE
The other day I bought a 12-pack of string cheese, my reasoning being that it would give me a couple weeks’ worth of snacks. Yeah, three days later I’m down to… one, I think? This isn’t counting the string cheese I buy with my lunch every day at work.
I don’t know, they’re just so stringable and munchable and have I mentioned that I love mozzarella? Mozzarella and provolone are my two cheese loves. (Oh wait, did I forget Colby Jack? Let’s throw that in there too.)
2. ALTOIDS
I dunno, I just go through about five of them a day. (Mints, not entire tins. Yeah, I’m not quite that addicted.) As an aside, does anyone else remember when these were The Big Cool Thing in middle school? Or was that just my school being weird?
There are apparently fruit-flavored Altoids, also, which makes me wonder if their slogan is “Curiously Fruity”. Mostly because I crack up just thinking about it.
3.)
P-P-P-POKER FACE
So I was late to the Lady Gaga party but fortunately this has been remedied. Now, a little thing about me: I tend to binge when it comes to music. I’m not one of those “Load up the whole playlist and hit shuffle” people… rather, I get into something (or, frequently, rediscover something) and listen to it until most peoples’ ears would bleed. A couple weeks ago it was U2… lately it’s Poker Face on repeat. Oh, and Sonic the Hedgehog fans: This cannot be unheard.

Ok the Poker Face VS Sonic. = Win
For me, it’s not individual artists I get addicted to. I get addicted to individual *songs*.
My dormmates were plotting to kill me after I downloaded Through the Fire and the Flames. I averted that, though, by plugging in earphones (eventually – I needed to get back at them for something at the time, but damned if I remember what).
I’m totally like that when I get into a song too. I’ve had a single track looping for over three hours before. :O Most people can’t stand it.
As a Wisconsin exile, I lament how hard it is to get fresh cheese curds. The string cheese is still quite good, though. It helps mollify my cravings.
For me it’s been this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pidokakU4I Which I guess is several songs. Or all songs. Oh well.
I recently rediscovered my love for string cheese. They make cheddar and mozzarella swirl string cheese now, which is AMAZING.
I cannot just listen to one song on repeat. I am the “Let’s put a bunch of songs together and hit shuffle!!!” It is probably because, when I was a bartender in a larp and we had that little boombox hidden so we’d get a “background music”, I had to listen to Loreena Mckennit’s Mummer’s dance on repeat for 48 FREAKING HOURS. Now, my boyfriend just has to tell me “Loreena?” and I twitch.
I’m the same way pike and with that song as well. Heard it in Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief and i cant get enough
What is this string of cheeses!
I must obtain some posthaste.
Ooooh, I’m with you on string cheese. Everytime I buy a bag of 24, I always ended up eating the last one by the next day. >.>
I usually buy mozzarella favor, too!
I love it, and my sisters hate it so they’ll never touch it – talk about killing two birds with a stone! 
Can’t comment on the song, though, I’m deaf.
Actually, I think the fruit-flavored Altoids does have “Curiously Fruity” on them.
Hmm, I think I may have to stop at the store and pick up some string cheese when I pick up my daughter this evening. Curse you Pike! *shakes fist*

Cheese string? What is this curious cheese? Don’t think they sell that in Norway. And damn, but now I want to test it… :p
Completely unrelated to anything else, whenever I read the banner on your blog, my strange, strange brain reads “Clockwork Rocket Hare”. Which in and off itself is awesome! xD
Concerning your more permanent addictions, I thought you might like this:
