Acually, I spend a good deal of time pondering as well.

Usually, I'll play around with a few special parts, putting some new pieces
on, and taking off others, until I get something I'm excited about.

I was thinking today about how much time I spend building LEGO models (My

a few days (because there are other days where I'll "play" for about 6-8
hours!).

So, this is about 14-21 hours a week!  That's quite a bit of time for a

LEGO building is better than that.

What do other people think?  Is it unhealthy to build LEGO that much? • Are
other people worse?

I'm curious.

few pieces then go to work.
     Does that make me a Lego loser? :^)
