This is primarily for single guys, but I'm sure everyone here can relate on some level.
It's Saturday night, 10:11 pm, I'm home alone...dog watching my sister's dog/hamster/creature...and I could be out. Now I had off today, I ran errands, broke my ass in the gym, had the TRU thing (see thread) and last night was in the studio for hrs in prep for next week's show. So...I couldve went to the bar, there were actually 3 different things I couldve done tonight...bar with friends, see a band or go on a date. I was DEAD SET on hanging home with a few micro brews, some Terminator (for the hell of it) and a night of being in my favorite chair...messing with Drift, Sea Spray and Vikor... I feel if I didn't have nights like this, what the hell is the point of collecting? Now...I'm smart enough to know NOT to admit this as the reason why I'm staying in as I'd catch 3 days worth of crap...but I'm enjoying myself...and the micro brews are helping Does anyone else go out of their way to "make time" just to relax and tend to their collection? Or am I the biggest nerd that ever nerded? |

I could have gone out, but I'm under the weather from a bad cold, so I've stayed home and watched the first Star Wars and opened some Joes I got this week.
The roads are kind of crappy here today anyway. I saw at least two fender benders on my way to the comic store to get the new issue of ARAH. |

If you cant make some time and just shut everything off and out to literally chill and enjoy the crap you spent loot on...what's the point? I stayed in tonight, dusted some stuff off, messed with my shelves..etc. It was fufilling. |

dude,
Ive been with the same girl for almost three years now, and no matter what you NEED to make time for yourself. Whether that entails a day of video games, customizing or just plain playing around with your collections you definitely need that personal time. Now with that said I can't just come out and say.. "well I don't wanna see you today, I wanna chill with my xbox or my toys" because I'd be a dead man! lol But like you are trying to say and what MissyDee said.. it's not just a single person thing, it's an every person thing. Everyone needs downtime now and then.

I'm not single, nor do I think I "make time", but I play with my toys all the time. I think I'm one of those people who finds time, when going out with our friends, working, reading and researching, cooking or spending time with my boyfriend or dog, aren't a pressing matter. Yes, there are times when I decide that going out or doing something else isn't important to me -that's when I post here. A Saturday night with my loved ones, a few drinks at home, netflix in the mail and a joint are all the excuse I need for disappearing into my SW or Joe collection.
