Airplane Acquisition Syndrome

Does anyone else suffer from this?

I've got 5 airplanes, 4 of which still aren't airworthy yet, and I find myself surfing Tower for yet another kit to build and I am really having to fight myself from buying another. I don't have room to put anymore (don't even really have room for the 5 that I have).

All this and I am still building up to my first solo. [:@]
Well, I solo'd a long time ago, but the rest of it fits. My shop consists of half a 1-1/2 car garage; I have 7 flyable planes, and two 1/4 scale kits in the box. Back in November, I bought two more 1/4 scale kits, and spent some Xmas money day before yesterday and bought two more 1/4 scale kits. The only way this stuff will fit my space is to leave them unbuilt[]. Can you see four biplanes, a triplane, three more 1/4 scale monoplanes, and the seven already there, PLUS a workbench and all the accumulated parts and tools in half a garage? As Charlie Brown would say, AAAUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHH !!!!!
