Why don’t you just say no happiness as well?

Filed under: Pinball — Chris @ 11:06 am

I was talking with a friend, who informed me that I’d have to give up my mad pinball collection when I finally find someone I want to spend my star wars watching/RV Driving/Photo Taking/Arcade building days with.

Why didn’t she just tell me “oh, and no happiness”.

I mean, this hobby. It might border on an addiction. It may be, that I have more projects to work on, than floor room.

But, I’m still like 95% kid inside! That 5% adult gets out voted every time!

I’m building quite the collection. I just need to find more space for storage, until I buy my own house.

Current games -
Pinball:
The Addams Family (It all started with this one, and the guy said, you can’t get just one, and I believed him) ;) The Twilight Zone
Fish Tales
Johnny Mnemonic
Doctor Who
Dealers Choice
Pinbot
Bram Stokers Dracula
NBA fastbreak
The Shadow
Star Trek the 25th Anniversary Edition
And I’ll prolly be getting
WhiteWater
(you can see the photos of these games on my Photo site or read up on the games at The Internet Pinball Database. )

Video Games:
Dragons Lair
Primal Rage
BattleZone
Star Wars
Killer Instinct
My half put together Mame cabinet

These can be seen at the photo page, as well as Killer List Of Video Games

I don’t think it’s that bad, do you?

Oh, and I got a gum ball machine a few days ago, but that’s just, uh too cool.

Ohhhh, and if you want to click on certain links on this page (I can’t tell you which, cuz then I get in trouble) you can erm, help me with my addiction!

This just goes to show, Chris has *no* resolve.

I just got off the phone with a friend.

Did I mention that I’m a social movie goer?

Did I mention that I was *not* going to go see Revenge of the Sith? (well, at least until next week).

Crap. I now I have tickets for the 12:03 showing. That puts me up until 2:45 in the morning!

I am standing in line for Star Wars.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY HEAD?

Why can’t I just say, “No, I’m going to be watching all 153432 hours of Anne of Green Gables tonight?”

Well, I’d be watching something like “Monster Garage”, or “Monster House”, or “Monster Kitchen”.

Or doing my Laundry, or I dunno, washing my hair.

No.

I had to fall.

And I fell hard.

This had better be good or.. I’m throwing popcorn. Or thin mints, or some kind of candy, or nachos.

Well, at least I have the firefly movie “Serenity” to look forward to.

Oh, PS. The second oldest in my fam, Gordon has started his own blog. Check out the first article, I give it three thumbs up.

Oh, and as always, I’m working on pinblog to showcase all the mad pinball stuff I do.

I <3 pinball > :)
