Why do you think you became an addict to begin with? Some people I do believe are genetically wired for it, but I don't think that necessarily means you're going to end up one automatically....
I totally believe you're not bluffing, and I'll totally do it. Don't you think I'll need any tank tops...bathing suits...? I have a passport, getting the rest would not be difficult...
EDIT: I just read your blog... wow. Good luck, sweetie. That's a lot to deal with!
