Ive been charting this cel obsession, and the 
stages of everything "you could have if you 
werent addicted" and I ve come up with the 11 
steps you gotta go through BEFORE you can even 
consider thinking about getting cel help..
for a reference Ive also put in what you would 
be buying if you weren't shamelessly addicted.
 
 
  A New anime dvd ( this would be like your 
first cel ever)
  
An entire BOX SET of anime DVDs ( you decide you 
need to have 2 cels of the same character 
because, well, he's makin a goofy face in the 
first cel)
  
A new Playstation2( this is the point where you 
think, now I have a COLLECTION Ill need a cel 
book)
  
A new computer (two cel books)

  A trip where they serve ya litle drinks with 
umbrellas in em. ( Theres just not enough cels 
on ebay or the personal sites lets try yahoo 
Japan)
 
  A 2 lb bag of cocaine ( Yahoo Japan is great 
but IF I FLY TO JAPAN DIRECTLY..Ill save 
SOMETHING in deputy fees, and heck I might learn 
something)

  A college education 4 years (Your husband and 
or children are no longer talking to you because 
you forced them to paint the spare bedroom in 
the house white so that all your framed cels 
look better.)


  A HARVARD college education 4 years( youve 
since added an ANNEX and you cant find your 
husband or your children)

   The QE2 ( by the time youve hit this mark 
youve hired a small company to look after your 
domestic affairs (ebay) and your international 
ones (yahoo J) Youve sold everything else except 
the cels, and are considering seriously how much 
you can get for your kidneys.)

  Be the first citizen on a rocket into space 
(you would never consider leaving your precious 
babies behind on earth, forget it.)

  Your own little island nation where they make 
graven images of you as their new cel goddess 
muahahahaaha *koff koff*( _the point you realize 
you MIGHT need a 12 step program_ )

then your on your own. Sadly, theres no such 
thing as an ex addict, you either buy cels or 
you dont.
  There is no way to EASE out of it. jeeze I 
dont even try anymore..what the heck would I 
want with the QE2? I thought they retired it 
anyway...
