12-step program anyone?

[NYI Fan]

Here's my story -

I bought vB back in July, and wasnt even sure I would know how to install it, let alone modify it. I have decent html skills, and a great working knowledge of all things "cable modem" (I was a tech support phone rep for 2 1/2 years, then became a sup for 2 1/2 years before I moved into the technical engineering side of life in October) so I am technical, but i had never touched php or mysql...

A relatively trouble free install, and my boards are "live". Great! Now it's time to customize them. I made some buttons and stuff, and designed a color scheme. But wait, i saw a board with a centered logo, and wasnt there a board that did [enter your favorite cool thing here]? OK, no problem, vB.com is there to answer questions!

The people there were great and didnt laugh at my stupid newbie babble, just gently pointed me in the right direction (and actually saved my a$$ a few times as well) OK, this vBulletin stuff isnt too hard, im actually learning too!

And then vB.org is born! A veritable playground for me, since i may not install all the hacks, but I look at them all very carefully to figure out what does what and why this works but that doesn't, etc...

The problem, you ask? I feel compelled to quit my job, ignore my family and friends, and just spend hours and hours learning all this fun stuff. If only everyone would just leave me alone, i could maybe even write my own hack someday

The point of this whole long drawn out post? Well, there are 2[list=1][*]Thank you to all the people here and at vB.com who have kindly helped me or shared their work with me. You have my admiration for not only your knowledge but your patience as well![*]I'm now in the market for a good 12-step program!
