Obsessions?

What are you obsessed with? I was thinking addicted but, I guess obsessions is a more appropriate term....

(Bonus point for pictures)

Mechanical things, especially anything with an engine. Doesn't matter if it's a dirt bike or an aircraft. I love operating, tinkering and just looking at mechanical things and engines.

Finding the inner workings of everything, then adjusting them accordingly to fit my needs. Motors, anything electrical or mechanical, processes/procedures.....and people.

The mechanics/inner workings of all things mechanical, and the manufacturing process of that product.

Odd response...the octopus. I think its the coolest damn creature on the planet. I was up till midnight the other day watching another documentary on them. Even have a giant one tattooed on my arm.

Shoes (any type). Having things organized and straight (I've had to loosen up on this because my husband sucks at this & so I pick my battles now. It doesn't mean I still don't lose it here and there).

Edit: as I was cleaning I was thinking more about this. I love shoes and things being organized and clean but I'm truly obsessed with traveling. I would give up the other 2 in a heartbeat if it meant I could never travel again. I love seeing new places and experiencing the local culture. I'm always looking for a new place to go and what I can experience while I'm there.

I had a girlfriend who had them, I'm not for or against...whatever makes her happy with herself unless they are like circus freaks.
My wife was going to get some store bought ones but then decided at 40+ she really didnt need them.

I think the reason I like Jennifer Aniston so much is she ALWAYS has hard nipples. EVERY time you see her

Damn. I overlooked my materialistic....ness. Wallets, watches, belts, shoes, jeans, etc. And also organization as well. I'm a bit of an eccentric neat freak.

I've never really been in to how things work maybe it's more of a guy thing. I just want them to work when I need them to lol. Food I could take or leave. I enjoy working out but not obsessed. I do love horsepower but it isn't an obsession. I love the sound of hearing turbos spool and the engine roar when you nail it but not an obsession. Random, but I love the sound of an impact wrench I replied but then really started thinking about what I couldn't live without and it's traveling. All the other stuff, is just stuff at the end of the day. Sure, I enjoy it but it doesn't give me anything long lasting. Traveling does that for me by giving me experiences and memories.

Are you one of those people that give the impact a few hits right after putting an airline to it? I am...I am one of those people. Sort of like giving the tongs a few clicks to make sure they tongin correctly.
