I think I get what you mean, I love reptiles of all kinds and when I know I'm allowed to get another one, I can get frustrated saving up the money for everything. I'm only in high school and have to work with a chores allowance, and most of that is used on buying feeders and such, usually it ends up leaving me maybe 5 or 10 dollars a week to put back into saving I'm working on my next reptile right now, and it's been a pretty long road but now all I need is a Repti-sun tube, new calc and vitamin powders, and the little lizard himself!

I think part of my obsession is my OCD, it drives me crazy sometimes, but it sounds like you just have a healthy love for reptiles like a ton of herpers! I know I do some crazy things myself for my kids (reps ), when my mother has to go to Wal-Mart I like to go and look for interesting things for hides or decorations... I hardly ever stray from the side of Wal-Mart that has things like plastic containers and tubs, deli cups, pet supplies etc... I just go to the food area when my mother wants help or I want a Subway Sandwhich
