I found this on another website, and thought it was funny. I listed my favorites, and the ones that I may or may not be guilty of...
- You're packing for a romantic weekend away with significant other and you give more thought to which books to take than to which nightgown is your sexiest.
- Before you buy a purse you make sure a paperback will fit inside.
- Your significant other mutters about life in prison not being much of a deterrent to you since you'd be quite content sitting in your cell reading all day.
- You call in sick so you can finish reading a book.
- When you move you have more boxes labeled "books" than anything else.
- You have to constantly invest in new bookshelves.
- Your kids holler from the other room with something they consider a dire emergency, and you say, "Wait until I finish this page!"
- You have no idea what's on television anymore (except for Psych) because the boob tube has become just another piece of furniture.
- You tend to buy frozen, microwavable foods that practically cook themselves so that you don't lose any precious reading time for such an unimportant thing as feeding your family.
- You valiantly try to teach your kids "independence," which means you want them to do more household chores (so you can have more reading time).
- It's 2am and you think "just another chapter" and do the same thing at 3am when you know you have to get up in 4 hours and work.
- You try reading and walking at the same time. (Works on a treadmill!!)
- You start fabricating excuses as to why you can't go out with your friends when you're in the middle of a great book.
- You start thinking of the characters as real people.
- Your eyesight goes from 20-20 to legally blind because of reading in poor light.
