You have a parchment on your desk covered by symbols that you pore over during your lunch hour. Your work colleagues think you are truely dilligent learning some new programming language in your break, although they cannot understand the level of swearing that this exercise generates. Feeling sorry for you, they don't mind when your lunch break is two hours.

....you ride past/drive past a mural and you stop to take pictures for future reference to possibly make a multi/puzzle out of from the various numbers of things in the said mural.

You find yourselves struggling to hide a newly found cache when you hear or see people approaching. You are more worried that they are geocachers chasing the FTF rather than muggles.

You promise to pick up Geowife from work at a set time and some how just one more cache always seems to make you late. :roll:

You explain to your daughter (19) what a Trig looks like & ask her to keep an eye out (& also mention it to her friends), so that you may possibily find/add ones that were not originally listed on GCA.

You also show her what a SSM looks like & ask her to check foot paths, gutters etc. & report any finds. (Put shopping to good use).

The tears are streaming down my face :D

When:

Your legs and arms are constantly covered in stratches and other geocaching injuries from tree branches etc. (and you didn't even feel it) 8-[

and when those said scratches, bruises and wounds get attention from non-cacher friends and family and all they can do is shake their heads at you and say you're crazy - which only inspires more 'crazy' behaviour!

You always carry salt and a pair of tweezers wherever you go, including shopping centres.

You're out with your boyfriend to dinner and call him by his caching name at the table (thanks Anna). It's OK though, we were with other cachers.

When you are running late picking up your hubby from work, and you tell him to meet you at a nearby cache so he doesn't have to wait as long.

You mean she sometimes calls you by your real name? I thought that's what she always called you :?

My wife keeps hairbands in a small Sistema in the lounge room.
It's driving me mad! I'm like the dog in "Up" every time I walk past it - Squirrel!!
