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???

The bills are paid, the family is dressed well, nobody's hungry (damn I got mustard on the keyboard), we have our quality time etc... I just can't justify a new bedroom suite or a new kitchen table, when what we really need is a new CD player and a few sets of power cables. It's not like we're sleeping on the floor (well she isn't) or eating in the back alley.

Actually my wife is fairly cool about it, although this audio thing definately gets her pretty wound up from time to time. I guess it's understandable, I can't imagine how I'd feel if she started getting into high end hair dryers and curling irons. Wow hon you're thrifty, 60% off a $1400.00 tube of lipstick. Oh....it's used!!!
