Have you ever...

...expressed any sign of affection towards your robot?

I hugged Spicy after finals at SVR. And I petted 701's bot at Nationals...Yeah...

After, I think it was our fourth match in LA, we were all discussing how much better we were doing in LA than in Phoenix and i relized that it wasn't all because of us...well maybe it was, but no one was giving Jaws any credit! I told some of my friends and we all started huggin him and talling her how great he was doing...or she was doing. I think our team should discuss it's gender. LOL!

I didn't do anything like that, but our driver kissed the robot before our last match on Friday at Nats.

I almost cried last night when the server died.

I fell in love with
our control board

I told my husband I wanted to take it home and adore it. (No, husband didn't make the control board. He understood my adoration.)

Of course I have!!!!

I kissed it before we put it in the crate, and then I hugged the crate goodbye and told our robot to be careful. Plus, for a few months I was keeping an old robot in storage in my shed, so I kissed it goodnight once

There's a fine line between insanity and healthy obsesion with FIRST ... and sometimes I wonder which one I'm on

Oh, and another thing I did at SVR...

I had to come on the second day (it wasn't my choice). So it was Friday and we had just entered the pit area. As soon as I saw my pit sign I skipped over to it, and as soon as I saw the bot I was like "Spicyeee!! Oh I missed you!!!" and proceeded skipping until I was at the pit.

The Beatty 2002 bot has been the object of my affection numerous times. The Beatty crate has gotten many a huggin'.

The Prank Monkey crate got hugs and snuggles both before it left, before and after St. Louis, and when it came back to Ball State. I guess I'm affectionate to my team's bots.

I have a picture (which I will not post) of Mark Whitehouse (former member of 232 and 814) doing something VERY indecent with our robot, when we had just gotten it running.

Admittedly, the first time you see a swerve drive in action, it's just amazing... But what he did... No... It was just not right at all...

Then there's that picture of Mark doing the same indecent thing to the small mill we received during the build period... oh man... so gross... I can't get that image out of my head

heh
