    When I came home from a night shift, dog tired, yet had to hone a razor so I had something fresh to use when I woke up....

    The first thing you grab after getting home from work is the morning's razor, a sheet of white cardboard, your camera, the morning's after shave, cream, etc, and then you spend the next 1/2 an hour taking the SOTD photo, another 1/2 an hour composing the (in your mind) much awaited post, and then the next hour and a 1/2 browsing 'the forum' ...

    ...and then you return after tea to check for new updates...

    ... and at 8:30 at night you're still there...

    PLUS, on viewing the front page you see that you have three posts in a row in the Recent Forum Posts section, and you feel embarrassed about it, but want to respond to that ONE last post from a newbie asking for advice...because you actually believe he wants to know what you think...

    When you burn your hand cooking breakfast and you are mad because the pain is going to keep you from getting some more honing done.

    You know your hooked when your forearms are bbs, as well as your thighs and you have a bald patch on your belly.

    No true addict would ever allow a minor detail like a third degree burn on the hand (or any or all parts of their body for the matter of that) to inhibit their scheduled honing to take place...

    Actually it didn't completely inhibit me.

    It just delayed the honing session by a few hours.

    I wish Glen had not started this thread...It's brought up to many realities. After reading through this I'm beginning to believe that I have a real Problem! Many things mentioned here are things that I've considered.
