Like Christmas in summer time!  Packages rolling in regularly.   :D


Lol it certainly is. I love getting my faire stuff but as soon as I've got it and tear it open and put it on I find my self standing in my living room in pretty new garb with a sad face wishing it was already faire time lol

What qualifies as a hobby nowadays? I'm not sure I have one...


Anything you enjoy doing more than the things you do on a regular basis to get through the day.  Something you CHOOSE to do, instead of something you feel like you HAVE to do!

Fraser, just remember the following axiom of truth- women are the most expensive addiction one can ever have. You got off easy :D


Seriously, polyamoury surpasses being a gun nut, bike nut, hotrod nut, etc. I think it rivals being addicted to real estate flipping... ;)

Oh, please... women are only expensive if you don't know how to keep them happy in other ways.  :P  



Edit:
Of course, I've known many women who were only interested in what a man would spend on them... but that type generally doesn't stick around long if the budget has any sort of limit.

It's when a man tries to keep too many women happy at the same time that things tend to get a bit... tricky.  If a woman isn't getting the attention she wants, chances are she'll just look elsewhere...  :P


The same can be said for women who try to juggle too many men, though... although in the case if women it's usually more of a scheduling issue than anything else.  Most men are happy with a little attention, then they can be sent off to play with their friends, leaving the schedule free for whoever is next on her list.  


Much easier, for me, anyway, to keep those numbers fairly low... particularly if there are actual emotions involved!

Okay, so faire can be a hobby...

Now I have to see what else I can use as a hobby.

I am on a hobby-hunt.

Just identify the things you enjoy doing, and anything you think you would like to try can also be a hobby.  Reading, painting, crafting, target shooting, furniture design, board games, pottery making, taxidermy, learning a new language... whatever!  Anything that you like to spend time on, that doesn't actually pay your bills, is considered a hobby, I believe.  ;)

Well... that would depend on whether you had trouble deciding between sleeping and, oh, say... Faire.  No competition?  Then I'm guessing that's gonna be a no.  :P  LOL

From the Unabridged Wizard's Dictionary:
hobby - n. - 1) An activity pursued by an individual that is more expensive that the individual can comfortably afford, requires more time that the individual has available, and makes the individual look like a nutcase when he/she attempts to explain to acquaintances the significance of the activity. 2) An activity that sucks the brains and life out of an individual.

Whataburger makes people do crazy things. I <3 me a #1 with pickles and mustard.

Wataburger IS delicious although as much as I love it I couldn't handle the triple meat triple cheese monster of a burger that Breandon mentioned lol
