My name is Beth and I'm an addict

I'm addicted to Webkinz.

There, I said it. It feels good to be open about it.

I never got caught up in the whole Beanie Babies craze, and to be honest, I'm not addicted to *owning* Webkinz. I hate when a toy becomes a must-have item because no one can find them anywhere. It bothers me when something becomes overly popular and impossible to find because people are buying them up and putting them on Ebay.

But enough about that. Let's talk more about me.

I love playing the games at Webkinz.com. After my kids go to bed, I play the games in the arcade practically all night long. The kids love it, because while I'm playing, I'm also earning KinzCash for them. So I justify my addiction by telling myself I'm doing it for my kids.

Yeah, that's it. It's for the kids.

ABC News says it's bad for the kids. They didn't say it was bad for ADULTS. So I'm okay, right?
