Default Withdrawal Symptoms?

I have headaches, severe shaking, sweating, cannot eat, cannot sleep, cannot concentrate, bad tempered, snappy - basically I'm a mess. :

In order to try and cut down on my gas consumption I've been riding my motorcycle to work for the last 4 days - I miss my JK. I've never not driven her for so long. The last time I drove her was Monday night. I think I need help? Is this normal for other JK owners?

Oh yeah, I'm also very bored at work, can ya tell?

Her? I never ascribed a sex to my JK before. However, when I took it in to have some hail damage repaired the shop should have worked it that morning--long story, but I was first in line. I went back that afternoon (similar symptoms to yours above, BTW) and they hadn't even taken a look at my JK. I asked when and they said "sometime this week". I said no way, but they said they couldn't work on it unless I left it in their parking lot all week. I couldn't go an undetermined time without my JK, so I took her back. Those hail dents are kinda growing on me, anyway. She may be ugly, but she's mine!

Ahh, try being in Hawaii(that part is not rough!) and seeing rental JKs EVERYWHERE and you are stuck with a TJ

To tell you how bad it was, I was happy to get back from Kaui just to drive my JK again!

I believe the correct phrase is, "It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it."

Yeah, I have a work car (ford Escape 4cy) that I use during the day, and I get to work in some pretty beautiful places. Too bad I don't get to use my JK and go topless all day (company policy :C).
