Jonesing?
What is it? I see lots of posts about it, but I've never learned what it means.

according to wikipedia:
Jonesing: craving, originally referring to drug addiction, but now extended tongue-in-cheek to include cravings for food and drink (or kilts)
There are 10 kinds of people in the world...
Those that understand binary, and those that don't.

My understanding, though limited by lack of experience, is that hereabouts jonesing is the Exquisite Torture one undergoes between ordering a kilt and actually getting to wear it.
as in, I am currently jonesing for my Fk......
Best Regards,

Ah, okay. So at around 5:00pm every friday, that achy, tired, longing sensation can be appropriately titled "Jonesing a beer?"

Or the even more exquisite torture of waiting for the fabric to be woven, before it can be shipped to the kiltmaker, so you can order a kilt....

As in, I just ordered 2 16 oz. FC kilts (Macpherson Dress and Pride of Scotland), and I can't stand the idea of waiting 6 weeks for them to arrrive!!!!
This is the torture we are talking about, complicated by my Jones for my Kilt Belt and Sporran Strap from Oconee Leather Works.
Hopefully they'll all arrive soon!!!!!!
