Withdrawal Symptoms

Going to the movies often is an addiction of mine. I can't function properly if I don't see a movie at the cinema for a while. Someone at work the other day suggested that I get out of the cinema and enjoy other hobbies. I do, but nothing beats the thrill of seeing a movie on the big screen. It was hard work to go through 10 days in January this year without seeing a movie at the cinema. I had an excuse as I was in Thailand and had an overseas friend visit so it was my pleasure to show him around. It wouldn't have been right to ask him to go to the movies when he wanted to check out the tourist attractions. Just imagine if he was asked by his friends back home some of the attractions he visited. The cinema just doesn't sound right for a reply. This month I experienced a drought of 8 days. That was torture again! Hopefully there will not be too many more long stretches this year of 8-10 days without a movie at the cinema.
