It's the same for me, the time just seems to fly, but it's cool when one gets to see what's been created on the computer screen. Of course, for non-photographer types like me it's often frustrating but my fingers are pretty good at twiddling so so I twiddle a little bit and coax that camera into a climax of photography averageness.
I'll be back to upvote your comment later when my VP recharges a little.
