Have you ever called in sick to work on your reef tank?
Of course! One day I woke up to no power. The power had been out for about an hour and a half. No way I was going to work before it came back on (3 hours later). Me and the reef had some quality time with a flashlight
 I also called in sick to do an interceptor treatment once. After I'd cleaned pumps/powerheads etc, daytime tv isn't nearly as fun as you'd think Workin on the tank is way more fun than a day at work.  (unless it involves grape caulerpa)

Yep ... and I'll do you one worse, I called in sick when Rob Toonen came through town. Although it ended up just being me & Canadian Man who came to the "Reef club event with Rob Toonen" so we just hung out, visited all the LFS's, had lunch at Peter's Drive-In, and chatted reef stuff all day. Best sick day I ever had!!

I work at home & sometimes I will work on my reef or go to the LFS to check out a new shipment or just go on a LFS tour with friends when I really should be working hard on my computer. Oh well, that's what those hours after midnight are for, eh.
"Of course", that's why its called an ADDICTION!!!!  Anthony
