Default How do I know if i got "The Bug"?

I'm in the same situation, my friend. I have 12 kits waiting to be built just sitting there in my little sanctum (the garage). My wife also tells me that I'm nuts, but here's the way I see it. My wife has just about every cooking type device ever advised (we usually eat mac&cheese or frozen pizza). She has a ton of crystal that she got while a member of some sort of crystal club (I doubt most of it has ever seen the outside of the box). This is the best one though... She has a display case with these little shoes in it. There are all kinds of little shoes in there of every size and shape. They are just a couple of inches long, yet cost about 25 bucks a pop. They don't light up, they don't make noise, you can't race them, and I don't think they would be that much fun to take out and play with. Yet when I want a plane that starts out as a pile of wood, and ends up as a flying machine, I'm nuts. Go figure.

I found out the secret of marriage a long time ago... Let your wife buy whatever sort of weirdo stuff she wants, regardless of cost. Then she can't say anything when she comes home from vacation and finds a new dirtbike in the garage. Yeah, she may complain, but then I just bring up the shoes and crystal and she usually settles down. Life's great.

If all else fails, just come over to my house. We'll sit in the garage and get our fingers stuck to airplanes...

I havn't even mentioned to her how much it will cost to build all of the ziroli and vaillencourt designs yet. hahaha...

Good luck!
