Yes, most of the above resonates with me also.

Can't even guess the last time I spend the whole day WITHOUT pinball (that's sad, isn't it!).  Usual checks are of course this forum (probably at least twice a day), ebay, vendors sites (PBR, Bay Area, Marco, etc).

But ...... as I currently have 6 pins going for restore ...... jeez!!!  Restorations just SUCK the hours out of you.  Definitely been spending 90% of my daily "pinball time" on restoration.  Sometimes it just drives me crazy, but as the examples of the restorations shared on this site have many times "set the bar level", it does influence me to spend more time than I thought I would at it!  Part of me can't wait for the endless resto hours to eventually end, but then I have a feeling I will be hungry looking for the next resto after that!?  Can't win  .... but as Nino said above, need to keep the balance with pins and family.
