signs of addiction

LOL, and here I sit, feeling guilty that I wasn't working on my cars like I
was planning to. What was I doing? Finishing phone lines in the garage so I
can be online on the laptop in either of two spots, and installing an old
keyboard drawer as a dedicated Bentley shelf, I never seem to have desk
space out there to lay one down otherwise. Of course it goes without saying
that Ikea provided the lighting overhead, that got finished off too. What a
bunch of nutbars we are.

So, Heather, the true addict would be pricing airline tickets for the June
pilgrimage, hmmm, hmmm??? It'd be awesome to meet you guys!
