Am I blogging...or am I pitching my existence?

The Pitch: It's like Clean & Sober meets Cockfighter!  

I have not played a video game in eleven days. I have not eaten an apple fritter in over three weeks. This is what I tell myself when I start berating myself for what I have or haven't done recently, or have or haven't eaten.

Eleven days. Three weeks.

Oh, on what should have been an unrelated note, I took this little quiz and came up with the following result:


The Count
The Count's Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

It started with a simple affection for counting and
the terror it induced in others, didn't it?
But now it's turned into a full-blown
life-consuming chaotic nightmare of order,
repetition, zealousness, and perfectionism.
You used to be so grand, but now you find
yourself obsessively worrying over the littlest
things--like, maybe if you don't check the
light switch at least once every two minutes,
the electricity will go out (and damnit, you're
a vampire--that shouldn't be a problem!), or
maybe if you don't wash your hands until your
seams are coming out, you'll get some fatal
disease. Get yourself some treatment.

At first, I thought nothing of it, but looking at all my obsessive day- and movie-counting of this month's blog entries (indeed, what tipped me off were reeling off numbers in this very entry), I have to conclude this particular goofy quiz is shockingly accurate. Crap.
