addict
Meanwhile, I was reading this page and realised,
I know I'm addicted to Photoshop when:
You see the world with one eye and stock images with the other
When asked what the primary colors are, answer "RGB"
You get the urge to 'fix' poor quality images
You ramble about a breakthrough in the piece you're doing to people who have no idea in hell what you're talking about
You ponder the meaning of existence without layers
You drop something and your brain tells you automatically "Ctrl-Z! Ctrl-Z!"
When you realize it won't work, your brain tells you "Ctrl-Alt-Z! Ctrl-Alt-Z!"
You're getting dressed for something important and you look in the mirror and realize you would look so much better if you could just tweak the levels a little and apply a slight gaussian blur
You stop on the street to rant about cheesey effects that should not be on professional posters
I know I'm addicted to coffee when:
You answer the door before people knock.
You have a picture of your coffee mug on your coffee mug.
Instant coffee takes too long to make.
You don't sweat... you percolate.
Starbucks owns the mortgage on your house.
You can't even remember your second cup.
You don't even wait for the water to boil anymore.
You forget to unwrap candy bars before eating them.
You go to any meetings just for the free coffee.(sheepish)
You go to sleep just so you can wake up and smell the coffee.
You want to name your cats Cream and Sugar.
You've worn out the handle on your favourite mug.
You take your morning coffee with you in the shower.
Your heart beats noticeably faster as a reaction to the smell of coffee.
I have a lot of time to waste when:
Your bookmarks list takes 15 minutes to scroll from top to bottom.
Your eyeglasses have a web site burned into them.
You find yourself brainstorming for new subjects to Google.
You turn your computer off and get this awful epmty feeling, like you just pulled the plug of your loved one.
You turn up the volume real loud when leaving the room so you can hear if anyone IM's you.
All of your friends have an @ in their names.
You check your mail. It says "no new messages." So you check it again.
You code your homework in HTML and give your intsructor the URL.
You wake up at 3 a.m. to go to the bathroom and stop and check your e-mail on the way back.
You have withdrawals if you are away from the computer for more than a few hours.
You double click your TV remote.
You check your e-mail and forget you have real mail.
You go into withdrawals during dinner.
You message someone via IM when they are less than 20 feet away.
You run four chat programs all at once... Yahoo Messenger, ICQ, AIM and MSN
You talk on the phone with the same person you are sending an instant message to.
You get up in the morning and go online before getting your coffee.
The letters have come off your keyboard from excessive use.
You look at an annoying person off line and wish that you had your ignore button handy.
You're on the phone and say BRB.
I'm addicted to LOTR when:
I ask, "What would you like to eat, Pippin?"
You sometimes let your hair go curly after a wash, and then run around the house in bare feet yelling "I'm a hobbit!"
You refer to regular elephants as oliphaunts.
While buttering a piece of bread, you suddenly think of Bilbo (remember when he was talking to Gandalf about feeling tired) saying that he felt 'like butter spread over too much bread.'
You haven't removed the soundtrack from your CD player since you bought it.
You have looked both on the net and in the phone book to see if archery and sword fighting lessions are offered in your area.
You have begun calling your husband / wife / girlfriend/ boyfriend / animal or kid my precioussss.
You happily traveled over an hour to the next town to see "it" because that theater has a better sound system than the one 5 minutes down the road.
You have a mouse named Frodo, a bird named Gollum, and a dog named Gandalf. And that cat that keeps coming around to be petted is Legolas.
Whenever something goes wrong, it's Sauron's fault.
You think the names of the 7 dwarves from Snow White are: Gimli, Gloin, Thorin, Gili, Nili, Ori, and Bambour.
Whenever you close a door, you say "They have a cave troll!"
When you come to a dead end you're still convinced that the road goes ever on and on.
There's a sign on your door saying "Speak Friend and enter!"
Your computer's screensaver is a marquee reading, "Ennyn Durin atan Moria: pedo mellon a mino" and the password is actually "mellon".[it's currently a layout of Rivendell]
You cannot see a beer without blurting out "It comes in pints? I'm getting one!"
You stand in the doorway and tell your cat that he 'Can not pass'.
You know what Entmoot, Ent draught, or an Ent is for that matter
I was addicted to smoking when:
You put scotch tape on a broken one.
You only smoke half of the cigarette so you can start on the next one sooner.
Your family goes to Los Angeles for fresh air. (ha ha ha ha)
As you can tell, I have waaay too much time on my hands.
