I have no life!
I was out at a New Years party tonight and all I could think about was what time I could get home by so I could get to bed. I wanted to get a start on my new plane tomorrow that I am puttimg a DLE 111 on. It should be a monster. An AMR Giant Stick that is meant for a 50 to and 80. Yea I got it bad.....I had a life for a while until I decided to get back into this hobby. I love it though and for the life of me I can't figure out why I took a 13 year break. Funny how priorities change over time. Nice thing is now I can afford the things I only dreamed about before.
HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE!!!!
ENJOY EVERYTHING AND NEVER LOOK BACK.

RE: I have no life!
You're in good company man.
Sometimes I get asked if I'd like to be 25 again, and when I think about it I'm really having more fun now (esp with the hobby).

I took a break from the hobby in '66' as I relocated and could find no one flying C/L at my new location. Returned to the hobby in '79' when someone moved into my area and introduced me to R/C and what a change that made in my life. Imagine coming face to face with radio systems, present day adhesives and coloured shrink coverings ..... and now gas engines. This hobby of ours has certaintly come a far way and now I eat, sleep and dream about it.

RE: I have no life!
Morning all, yup life is good. Everyone is still in bed and I can get a start on my new project. Perfect way for me to start the year.
As for things coming a long ways, I can remember getting my first Cox .049. It was $5.49 and I had to save up for it. I put it on a little control line Sterling Spitfire profile job that lasted all of about 10 seconds before I drove it into the pavement snapping off the end of the crankshaft and turning the plane into matchsticks. I was hooked.

RE: I have no life!
I don't blame you.
Same happens with me, when I don't build or fly I think I waste my time and feel so guilty abou this. This is a serious problem you know as I miss some other aspects from life, I think at some point will have to meet a psychologist... My sleep dreams are also related to the hobby!!!
Anyway Happy New year to everyone!

RE: I have no life!
This is my life! I too took a long absence from the hobby to raise my daughters when thier mother left us. Now that I got them all grown I am back n the hobby I love! I can not do anything without wishing I was home working on a project or flying one! This hobby is what makes me excited like a school boy when I get a new plane or engine! If there is a better life I sure have not found it! I gave up TV 8 years ago drinking 34 years ago this is what I spent the extra time and money on, One of my daughters say I should get cable again and I always tell her got time for TV got time to build!

RE: I have no life!
I went to a newyears party with the girlfriend, ended up going to the local karaoka and met up with a couple of friend from the RC club, talked all night about RC Buggies and the new track whilst drinking to much vodka, ended up puking all over the dance floor and being carried to the taxi stand. IT WAS A GREAT NIGHT OUT.
HAPPY NEW YEAR

I love it too...trouble is my wife hates it! I'm to the point where I have to make a decision. She has broken one too many planes and I'm really losing my patience!
