Sleepless: Do you ever have garage nights?

I'm sitting here at 2:30 am yet again... car fever.

It started when I took out the trash (back of the house, outside the garage...)

Every time I go in my garage I have trouble sleeping that night because I'm so excited about it. The experience... AND to top it off I watched the Ayrton Senna documentary tonight. BRILLIANT and I'll admit I cried hah...

I don't have a nice garage compared to many teamspeeders' breathtaking garages. But I know you guys don't care about that. I got the floor done, cabinets, organization of the wall for tools and more. But until recently it only had one dim bulb to light the whole thing. Now I have plenty of fluorescent fixtures lighting it up.

I sit here looking at my 514whp Ztt and C63 and CBR600RR and while they may not be amazing here on teamspeed, I feel so happy!!! I'm so happy I have the joy of looking at, smelling, driving, hearing these cars whenever I want.

I don't even really expect a reply to this. I'm just really happy and appreciative, smiling as i sit here in my humble garage... which I'd like some suggestions for finishing touches on. I'm thinking some art Anyway pics will come with that thread.

Thanks guys for this place where I can talk like this. Only we understand the joy

Sounds like you've got it made, man. Enjoy the cars (I know you will).

When I cannot sleep I organize my toolboxes, or putter with the hot rod. Makes me very very happy.

Pretty interesting how zen it is to fiddle on cars or bikes on your own.

I love it. After a shitty day, I take out the toolbox and do minor maintenance on the bike. No music, no beers, no nothing. Just some time fiddling with something.

...

shit, that kinda sounds psycho.
