Are they healthy?
Is there a point you reach when it becomes unhealthy?
For example...the past week..I have dreamt about snowboarding every night - every night. I'm always by myself and it's always in powder and I always wake up so stoked.
And the whole of last week I spent on snowboard sites learning about design and materials and what makes a good board and what doesn't etc..
I'm starting to scare myself a little if I were to be honest....
Any thoughts?

I saw a documentary about stalkers the other night.
And Jev, "You are dangerous to both yourself and others, thinking you and the snowboard are secretly in love with eachother. Even though the snowboard hasn't actually told you it loves you, you still believe that. And if the snowboard disappoint you some time, you will become very dangerous and show anger towards the snowboard"

I think you have to be obsessed with something to be any good at it.

I don't think it can be unhealthy, your choice of doing something is your own. Whether you do it super consistently or not is up to you. Your life, you live it and do what you want, that's my philosophy. If an obsession kills you, then so be it, you died a happy bastard. Doesn't matter if your an African tribesman or a Corporate executive. Do what you want.

amen brother jason
I fear, however, that my constant daydreaming and thinking about snowboarding is starting to errect my work and concentration.....
One can but hope, that when one is in Denver in 2 weeks, one will be offered a kick-ass job right away! ha
