I know it's pathetic. Is there hope? There must be something more dignified to be addicted to.

There's just something about solitaire.

I'm forcing myself to get away from the computer and go to bed, I need to be up early. But you know, I even dream about solitaire. I usually lose in my dreams.

I was addicted to solitaire for probably 2 weeks. I got my time down to 40 seconds, and I thought to myself, "Hey that's pretty decent. Maybe I can set a record or something." Then I looked up times online and saw that people were finishing in the 12-13 second range. I lost interest pretty quick after that.

lol I recently started playing solitaire again once and a while. I had not played in YEARS. I still think it's one of the best innovations of Microsoft. They invented it right? :p

I base how well my night at the office went, on the number of games won vs "Redeals".

I've been there. I had the dreams also. Whenever I play any game for a long time I'll dream about it.

Ooh, pinball - forgot about that, haven't played in a long time. Maybe I can beat the solitaire addiction by substituting a pinball addiction. Minesweeper I'm really good at but I can close it down after a few games, not the same addictive quality.

pinball here I come.

Jezzball is the most addicting game of all time, but Microsoft doesn't include it in Windows (it was part of the Microsoft Entertainment Pack), so most people don't know about its massive addictiveness.
