i had a slight obsession about buying a pair of gloves for the gym...the gloves at my gym are way too big and heavy for me, so much so that i'm out of breath after only a few minutes on the pads. it went on for a couple of days, days which i spent walking around town, going into every shop i see to see if they have boxing gloves that were my size.i found it very hard to sleep with the thought of boxing gloves in my head, and the fact that i dont have one! finally, yesterday i got the idea of going to this vintage store near my house, with a little prayer that i'll find some gloves! sho' nuff, i found them! they're actually krav maga gloves, but still perfect for the gym haha! i was so skipped i was skipping all the way home! now i can sleep!

i had an experience like that too! i lost my box of photographs and for several weeks i could not straighten out my room until i found the photos, so my room looked like a tornado went through it and back haha! i kept telling myself that i could not fix my room until i found those photos :)

The nature of an obsession is that you can't think of other things. When that causes problems for you, like not sleeping, it becomes a negative behavior. If it goes on for very long, there could be serious problems. So I'm glad your obsession was something you could do something about!
