-I paid something ridiculous like $30/$40 a day for internet service while on a Norwegian cruise ship for my honeymoon so I could bid on items from the middle of the ocean.
-I've stayed up till 4am bidding in auctions when I had to be at work at 6am.
-I've faked an upset stomach so I could miss a meeting and sit in the bathroom sniping stuff on eBay.
-I've bid on items at 10pm from a doom buggy in the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland.
My wife is very supportive of my collecting but she probably thinks I'm a little crazy.
