Is there a 12-Step Program?
Posted by CuriousG on Tuesday, January 30, 2007 6:42 PM

Hey everybody,

My girlfriend insisted that I really needed a hobby, so I took up modeling. I put together a few kits as a kid and always wanted to get back into it big time, but procrastinated. Now I have a whole room dedicated to this new addiction, with four tanks under my belt and an A-10 on the bench. What fun! The Forum is great: have learned more from the folks on here than I would pick up in decades on my own. And a great support group too - encouraging knowing that I am not the only one who spills glue or paint, spends half their session on their knees with a flashlight searching the carpet for elusive bits of PE or has compulsively acquired a stash that will take years to build!

Happy to be here,

George

PS: My new pastime has already outlasted the girlfriend, but I will be forever in her debt for getting me started. Wink [;)]
