Must Keep Building
Hello. My name is Tim, and I’m a wine-racking building addict.
It all started so innocently, you know? I mean, I had all these bottles of wine just sitting around the house, getting in the way of my day-to-day routine. I’d try to microwave a burrito, but the thing was full of wine bottles. I’d get out of the shower and WHAM! I’d stub my toe on a wine bottle. Sleep was almost impossible. Every time I’d turn over I’d find a wine bottle I’d forgotten about sticking into my back. I just had to do something.
It was one of my friends that introduced me to this Geometric Wine Rack System. “Give it a shot,” he told me. “It’s perfectly safe. I’ve been using these for years.” I figured it couldn’t hurt. Anything was bound to be better than the way I was living. So, I bought one, went home, and tried it out. It was soothing, you know? Putting those twenty-four metal tubes and seven molded plastic linking components together to build a strong, stable wine rack, it eased me in a way I’ve never felt before or since. Soon, I was picking up all those unopened wine bottles off the floor, taking them out of the couch and the laundry hamper, and putting them all safely away in my wine rack. I was so satisfied with myself.
It was the configurations. That’s what got me. I’d look at the wine rack and think, ‘Maybe it would look better if it were a triangle.’ I’d take it apart, make it triangle, and then think, ‘This could be bigger! And a hexagon!” Suddenly I found myself buying another Geometric Wine Rack System, night after night. Nothing else mattered. I was calling in sick to work to build my latest wine storing creation. I wouldn’t answer the phone or leave the house unless I was buying more and more. I was building racks that would stretch over counter tops. I was building great whopping towers that stretch up to the ceiling! I was lining the walls! I was building wine rack couches! Coffee tables! A garage for my car! I… I couldn’t stop myself.
One day, I trapped myself in the shower after forgetting to leave an opening. It was three days before a neighbor heard my screams and came over to help me out of that mess. That three days… it gave me a lot of time to think. That’s when I finally got honest with myself. I had a problem and I needed help. And that’s why I’m here.
I still build Geometric Wine Rack Systems on occasion. Just recreationally, and always under the supervision of friends. And every day, I feel like I’m becoming a better person for it.
