Does it make you sad when....

Does it make you sad when your at work or school and all you think about is going home and playing your Atari but theres still about SIX HOURS left in the day? I find myself just waiting for that bell to ring so I can go home and pop in a cartridge and play the rest of the day!

That's everyday at work for me.

My job takes me away from home for a week or more at a time. I just can't wait to get home and play especially when I'm just nearly able to break a record score on TG and have to leave for work!

Yea it sucks. Having to wait all day, race home. shove some type of nutrients down your gob. then, finally, relax as the title screen of (anything really) pops up, and your rocking.

Me, lately I've developed a routine. Bad I admit, but it satisfies.

8:30, log on the Mac for a little Medal of Honor among some friends of mine.

11:30ish, online group breaks, I slide over to the Atari. Play a few random titles.

12 or 12:30. Time for some NES or Genesis. I alternate

 

So around 1 or 2 a.m. depending, thats usually how I end my day only to go back to work, sit, wait, to do it all over again!

Odd thing is I remember also having that obsession in 1980 from school! Little has changed.

they make fun of me at work from playing atari and that i have a big collection (124 games). they say i should play something more today's games but tapper taunts me to go back to the atari over and over again.

 

Edit: I just got a stocking of candy from work and they put the atari symbol on it... they love me! lol

Yes! I remember calling Sears almost daily to learn if a new release had arrived!
