Current Menu:

Guitar (my passion)
Grateful Dead (forever)
O, Brother Where Art Thou (for the past 2 months)
Office Space (1 year or so)
Pixies (for the past 2 years)
Nirvana (years...)
Geology, rock collection (forever)
All animals
Drawing trees, abstract drawing (from the right side of the brain)
Reading...lots of reading (mostly about Buddisim)
Wrong Planet.Net (since I discovered this forum which has been about a week!)

I never knew that obsessions was part of asperger/autisim spectrum, just thought I was ultra weird. I can be like a dog with a bone; just can't leave it alone.

I'm setting myself free, by saying Routemasters.

...and of course, freedom is another obsession of mine.

Martial arts, training thai boxing, general fitness, watching K1/MMA, investing/financial news, any news, my computer, drinking coffee, posting on internet forums, getting a university degree, AS information... this is what's been occupying my head.

Aside from my obbsession with certain TV shows I've always had two weird obbsessions:

1.Just staring at floor plans and geopolitical maps form anywhere between 5 to 15 minute(my imagination takes over from there)

2.Being able to entertain myself for an hour with switches, dials, and buttons(If I'm in Home Depote you can find me in the electronics department)

The TV show's I'm obbsessed with are Scrubs, Battlestar Galactica, Firefly, and Family Guy

I get obssessed with Aussie Rules Football, I go to all my favourite team's home games, and if I don't get to go I get agitated, and when we lose I get depressed. At the games I go crazy and yell out support and get the rest of the crowd going.

I'm also obssessed with the WWE and the Undertaker.

I feel like a freak sometimes.

Lets see......

Languages, Arsenal, coins, shiny rocks, arrowheads, Native American culture, cloud formations, astronomy, World War 2, Where's Waldo books, Firefly, Scrubs, Poland, computers, anime, manga, ancient civilizations, Chinese astrology, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, metal bottle caps, samurai, sharpie markers, stickers, The X-Files, Lord of the Rings, soccer, The Chronicles of Narnia, classical music, snow globes, dogs, refrigerator magnets, poetry, the English Premier League, Ireland International Soccer Team, X-Men, the World Cup, and RPG video games.

Everyone used to describe me as "unusually intense" when I was a kid. My uncle once bought me a shoe box full of fridge magnets and I didn't play with anything else for half a year. When I went to Mexico I compulsively collected metal bottle caps but everyone thought it was funny. My father once made the mistake of buying me a limited edition VHS-release of the original Star Wars trilogy. My mother hid it from me for three years. When the World Cup was in the US in 1994 I would sit in front of TV watching replays for hours without moving. I still do that actually.

I go from one obsession to the other fairly regularly but I never seem to lose any interest in any of them. I always seem to get back to them eventually.

Shiny rocks (well, geology in general) and dogs are among my obsessions as well. I am also interested in meteorology and architecture, and anything involving Central Asia (the 'Stans).

Power Rangers.
Yaoi fanfictions, or just anything yaoi. I'm obsessed with the man/man love. It creeps mum out a bit, really.
Writing.
Reading anything I can get my hands on.
Just... being online. I like the fact that no one expects anything of you online.
