Default Re: Is it a Hobby, an Addiction, or a lifestyle?!

This hobby is an addiction. No question about it.

It worst then most others.
I can spend a week flying and hanging out at Joe Nall, get home and after one night of good sleep, all I can think about is Planes. Some nights, I feel guilty going to bed if I know I don't have something done on my planes that I had planned on doing. I even gave away all my video game systems this past year, because I felt guilty playing thenm, instead of practicing on the sim.

My wife has no interest in planes or RC at all, and this makes my passion for this stuff hard to pallet for her. She is usually annoyed with me and I have to be very careful on how I present plans for trips to her. Or how I sneak a 40% into the house.

Its hard sometimes.. and it causes more arguments than anything else in my life.
BUT you know what... its RC or the highway for me...!! I will not give it up!

Um yea... RC is an addiction... A BAD ONE!
