Mars: habit --> conditioning --> addiction

Habit: Making it a point to observe Mars almost every available clear night and do at least one sketch every time you do so.

Conditioning: When your body adapts to staying up late on nearly a nightly basis and you feel a sense of contentment every time an observing session is completed.

Addiction: When no matter how exhausted you are, even when you're making it a point to go to bed early to catch up on sleep because you're pooped out, you absolutely cannot fall asleep until you set up in the backyard and do at least one sketch of Mars.

I have a little problem here.

Obsession: not being able to go to sleep unless the alarm clock is set for 2am because you might miss a clear night.

You're not alone, Paul! :^)
