My Secret Addiction

Hi. . .

My name is annie and I have a secret addiction. I've had it for a long time. I've tried many time to just quit, but it's hard when everywhere you go on the Internet you're reminded of the hold it has on you and it won't let go.

I know, I've been in denial for a long time. It so hard to say NO! It just reaches out to you and holds on and won't let go. I'm driving my family crazy. I want to talk about it to them, but they just won't listen. They're tired of the way I go on and on about it. I just can't stop.

I know there are other out there with this addiction. It's a good feeling to know that I'm not alone. I've finally come to a decision. I'm going to just wipe the slate and come clean. So here it goes:

My name is annie, and my secret addiction is: Clay Aiken. There, I've said it. Gosh that feels so good. I am a CLAYMATE, and proud of it. Damn that feels good. What a relief! That voice, those beautiful green eyes, those soft gentle hands, those luscious lips, that distinctive nose. . .He is the most beautiful person I've ever seen. . .inside and out!

I hate the ugly things people say about him, and how people act like they are fans, but yet criticise him left and right. It makes me crazy! The one thing that really pushed me off the deep end was that I went to my first Clay Aiken concert this summer in Houston, and I was sitting in the second row with some of my friends for Louisiana, and Clay took my cell phone and sang to my seven year old granddaughter so sweetly, that I just wanted to jump right out of my seat and give him a great big hug.

Well, I'm glad I finally go this off my chest. My secret addiction is no longer a secret. Those of you out there, with the same addiction, please don't keep it a secret anymore. Just come forward and let it out. You will feel so much better by shouting it out to the world.

"IM A CLAY AIKEN FAN, AND PROUD OF IT!"
