Does anyone else have a Confession? Your secret is safe with me! :zip:

yorkshirecrazy · 02-18-2006, 08:54 AM

I too share in this addiction. I live and breath YT.

Raven · 02-18-2006, 09:00 AM

I LOVE YT - and yes I am addicted.

tigerfan · 02-18-2006, 09:08 AM

Count me in on the addiction as well!

barbg402 · 02-18-2006, 09:34 AM

YorkieTalk rocks for me!
My friends and family think I am nuts worrying about my babies.
They tell me I am obsessed with them, they got that one right.
I like my babies better than most people. oops My mom, hates for me to say that. But it's so true. They love me no matter what and always so glad to see me. Just give me kisses, kisses, kisses. Now, how many people will do that every-time you walk into the room?

I call it "multi-tasking"!!!!

Hell yeah, I'm a Yorkie addict. You have a problem with that? Well do you? I must tell you I'm 5'11" and my hubby is 6'4", so ya best not try any intervention crap...

Carry on

pennypoo · 02-18-2006, 11:30 AM

I can't get on here every day because when I do I am on here for hours with out even realizing it. Then I feel guilty for being lazy and getting anything else done.There is soooo much to read. I went on the other day and spent the whole afternoon looking at pictures and videos (they were great). It is very addicting. So do I qualify?

I can not believe how addictive this site is, while I don't always feel the need to post, sometimes I get on here and don's sign in - thinking that will help me get off faster, if I can't add to a thread - oh, what a joke that is. LOL

I'll then end up signing in! I have other things to do. Clean the house, exercise, actually leave the house. Sometimes, I try to work online in another window and then I can't stay away long from YT. I keep jumping back and forth between work and YT - guess where I spend more time??

I also tell my teen daughter all about the goings on YT, I bring her to the computer and we look at the pictures and videos and read the funny stories and cry over the sad ones. I need to be careful or I will produce a second-generation YT addict!!

I'm an addict that needs help - More YT friends and more Yorkies!! Yeah, that's the fix!
