Hello fellow addicts. I spend at least 5 of my precious 30 minutes of lunch break finding an open computer from which to drink my mate and eat my sandwich in peace at the NAM Shrine. Totally makes my day worth it, so glad you're all here [now if that darn car would just show up]. I looked at the numbers on-line and it seems many of you are doing the same thing at this time! I'm hooked. Is there a 12 step program?

Ok, here it is, my first post.

I just couldn't turn down this thread since I am on lunch too!

I put a deposit on my MCS DS/Blk a little over a week ago. The dealer told me late June for my delivery. I am going nuts. I think my finance is going to kill me before the car comes in.

Glad you guys are hear to help me through these troubled times! :smile:

I have 2 monitors here at work, so I always have NAM up on the second one.

10 hours
is that all?

I am spending WAY TOO much time with this! Thank God I run my own company! I tell you, if I found out an employee of mine was spending this kind of time on personal web surfing, I think I'd have a problem with that.

I was a nice, focused, productive business owner until I found this site.

AND I DON'T EVEN OWN ONE YET!

I had dad's night out with my daughter. She's almost 6. Where do we go? You got it. We went to Patrick MINI to look at the cars. Last week it was dad's night out with my 8 year old son. Where did we go? Bingo. The only difference was that with my son we had enough time to go for a drive.

Hello, my name is Christopher and I'm a MINI junkie. So far I've been able to stay off NAM for 5 minutes at a time.
