Passion or obsession


I am curious to see how much audio affects your day to day lives. I'm not sure but I think I've crossed the fine line towards obsessed.
For example,

Do you dream about your system and when you wake up it is the first thing on your mind?

Do you spend so many hours at the computer that your fingers are numb?

When your family hears the computer fire up do they all sigh?

While waiting for a delivery of equipment are you still searching for something better?

Do your friends get sick of hearing about your system or new products?

Do you make excuses as to why you've gotta check something on the computer, then remain there till it is verbally expressed that you have a problem?

Does your dog still like you?

OK, I am exagerating a little, but does any of this sound familiar or should I seek professional help???

I love me gear, but I only love it becase it transports the musical experience to me in a pasionate emotional way.

This hobby used to consume me...when I had over $13,000 worth of gear. Now my setup is worth under 5k (still not chump change, but some people spend more on power cables) and I am much MUCH happier.
