Just saw the promo. Tonight on TLC on a new series called "My Strange Addiction", there is a girl named Brenda who is addicted to rocks. From the show's website: tlc.discovery.com/tv/my-strange-addiction/Episode 9 Name: Belinda Addiction: Rocks It sounds harmless, but rock collecting endangers Belinda's life. When she's out "rocking," she falls into a trancelike state, losing her sense of time and throwing caution to the wind. She'll trek through treacherous terrain and wander through dangerous neighborhoods — all to find the "perfect" rock. It airs tonight at 9 PM/ 8 PM Central

Darn, I only caught the end of the show where they said that she agreed to get rid of some of her rocks and that it would take several days to go through them all. She said that she was going to reconnect with some of her friends again and spend less time with her rocks.
Hope they are rock friends.

Yeah,she has it pretty bad. I guess the most godawful part was the time her son brought his friend over and she was scrubbing rocks in her kitchen sink,with a brush and soapy water no less. He was so embarrassed. Can you imagine anybody sane doing that? ;D ;D

The Horrors! We should try to contact her. There's something wrong with her friends and family.

I missed the show (OK I'll admit it- I got super pissed off at Dish Network because they on of their sats was down and they want a HUNDRED freakin dollars to realign my dish- I told the guy to- well the initials FO come out of my mouth- and I cancelled my service (heheh even got a small refund for the 3 weeks of down time)) But I seriously don't see what the problem with collect rocks is- I mean I go into a trance like state all the time and the only reason I don't wash the rocks in the Kitchen sink is then I would have to do the dishes first. I mean that is why I had a sink put in down in the basement.
