Your Book, Music, and Video Game addictions...
For me, it's old-school Metallica (MOP & AJFA eras, mainly), online novels & Star Wars books, Ninja Gaiden (Xbox) and any and all Star Wars games (especially the Jedi Knight and KOTOR series games).
As a musician, I'm also seriously addicted to Ibanez guitars, and modding the hell out of them (new pickups, necks, bridges, wiring, trim, etc).
How about you?

I'm addicted to music PERIOD. I am in a bad place right now, because I had to sell 95% of my music collection when I was going through the hard times last Christmas (thanks again ASFN fam!) and I feel like I'm without my best friend. Especially my jazz. I can easily spend an hour and a half in a store picking out 2 lousy cd's! Music is my crack, and I'm in bad need of a fix. Other than that, I'm a Tekken and any sports game fiend for the PS2. And God forbid I find the occasional adventure game that I can't put down (i.e. Final Fantasy X, Dark Cloud, Grand Theft Auto.) My life is over!!

Well, I am quickly approaching 5,000 MP3s from various sources and I listen to music non-stop, lots of '90s and 00s stuff. My fav radio station from Tucson ( KFMA) went back online, so I listen to them all 9 hours at work M-F.
Video games right now is GTA:SA and NCAA 06 until Madden comes out.

Sounds like my fiance. She's leaving me for Grand Theft Auto, I think
She plays that game every night now that it's out for the Xbox.

Books - My all time favorite author writes chick/friendship books based in Ireland, Maeve Binchy. I also really enjoy re-reading the Left Behind series.
Music - My music addiction is a compilation cd of a bunch of songs that I enjoy singing with. I could listen to that cd day in and day out. It's mostly a mix of Patsy Cline, Kimberly Locke, Leann Rimes...
Video Games - Project Gotham Racing 2, Halo 2 & Tetris. I love Xbox!

I would advise you to marry this girl now, but looks like you already have that idea!
I had a gf 5 years ago that loved to play Crazy Taxi with me, but I had to let her go.

Don't read anything.
Don't play any video games. I bought an X-box when I became single, bought Halo 2, now it's just a $200.00 paper weight.

I have a bunch of classic rock CDs, but I wouldnt call it an addiction. I also play a little bit of xbox, Ive been enjoying NCAA Football 2005 lately (just lost the Fiesta Bowl with ASU...agggh!). If I wasnt a college student on a limited budget, I would probably have an addiction to building a massive dvd collection.

Book: Any book by F. Scott Fitzgerald, and of course my favorite book of all time: Pride and Prejudice (Jane Austen)
Music: Hanson, The Moffatts (Hidell, Boston Post), Mandy Moore, Rilo Kiley are my main obsessions. I have over 5 gig of songs on my comp at school - so music is something I like (all kinds.. not just Hanson).
Video Game: I like my old school nintendo - Mike Tyson's Punch Out and the Mario games (1, 2, 3). For playstation 2 it's definitely X-Files, Madden, NBA Live. I dont play video games all that much though - they are too hard - I played San Andreas one time and I had no idea what to do. I finally looked online to give me some friggin hints.
