It’s been more than a year since we started the last one of these. Here’s how we described it then:
Chokoholics, video-game addicts, manga fiends — tell us how you know when you’ve crossed the line.
Patience, Please
This site is under reconstruction and will look strange for a while. We regret the inconvenience.
An odd one…
You know you’re addicted to museblog when ypu put off reading muse to check for new posts.
That would mean you’re too addicted..
first post?
1- Oh, that’s bad.
You know you’re addicted to school when you can’t think of anything to do on the weekend.
You know you’re addicted to theater when you can recite the entire play you’re working on.
We already had a “You know you’re addicted to MuseBlog when…” so I vote for none of those unless they go on that thread.
Thanks, moderators!
You know you’re addicted to the polar regions when you…
Sleep with your window open in winter “for practice”.
Refer to your school lunch as “provisions”.
Collect toy penguins.
Scream nasty insults at the TV when they show polar bears and penguins in the same place.
Practice “manhauling” stuff.
Are asked where you would most want to go on a cruise to and say “Antarctica”.
Have read every book in the school library about them and then ask the librarian to order more.
you know you are addicted to reading when the librarian says “Call me by my first name” (its happened)
6- You know you’re addicted to reading when you’re on a first-name basis with every librarian in the county.
greekgurl (6): Oh, library addictions! I should do some of those. I’m on a first-name basis with most of the librarians at my library
You know you’re addicted to the library when…
–You almost cried when your library changed its hours from closing at 8:00 to 5:30 on Fridays.
–The librarians know your entire schedule and ask you how it was as soon as you enter.
–Your mother starts banning you from the library.
–You have your library card memorized.
–You have read all the books at the library and have to request books from other libraries.
I’m really not very good at thinking of these, for some reason.
6,7- Let’s see… I know the first names of all the librarians in *snip*, and I was on first-name basis with the librarian in *snipnumbertwo*, and my school librarian is really cool.
8- The last two definitely apply to me, although what with school and all my library addiction in subsiding…
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you can describe the family tree of the Malfoy’s, and who Dobby’s master’s were.
I have one librarian. I’ve been on first name basis with her since birth. I don’t actually call her her first name though. She’s my mother and I call her ‘mom’. I do have my library card memorized though. I don’t go to the library all that much; Mom usually brings things home for me or I go buy them at a bookstore.
Well, I know Pat. She does book club. I don’t really have time to go to the library a lot anymore
And the librarians at our school are just – …uhg. Seriously, if you are going to be that contemptual towards teens don’t effing work at a school.
My library closed, and it’s now housed in this tiny warehouse thingamajigger. So I don’t go the library a lot anymore.
Teehee … most of the librarians at my local library are on first-name terms with most of the middle schoolers, because I live in a tiny town and the library is next to the one and only one middle school.
You know you’re addicted to spelling when you jump at certain words. (“Mom, you’re screensaver that shows words randomly selected from the dictionary says monocoque!)
You know you’re addicted to Broadway musicals when you’ve memorized the majority of the soundtrack of 10 musicals.
8- and a check to all of those…. i even email one of the (younger) librarians and I know some of her background…
15- and check to the broadway one too!
then again I like to work on puzzles at times nearing midnight with librarians at my mom’s work parties. That and work on trivia questions with them during radio trivia competitions.
I never go to the library at school — the librarian isn’t very nice, and there is a terrible selection.
But the library system in Pittsburgh is very good. I’m on a first-name basis with almost all of the librarians, and the librarians in the teen section pretty much know everything about me. My favorite part about the library system is that if the book you want isn’t at the library, they can order it from any other library in the county, and even beyond that. Yay libraries!
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you can read it in a foreign language that you don’t know. (Btw, I just finished reading HP1 in Hebrew, a language that I do know, somewhat.)

You know you’re addicted to drawing when all the surfaces of everything you own are covered in doodles.

20-
WHY? I have Terraformed AND Marvin’s Room both memorized (practically), but it’s not on purpose, it’s just from near-constant exposure, endless editing, and helping actors run their lines.
Oh right. I have The Dining Room memorized too. Sort of.
You know you’re addicted to MuseBlog when you’ve memorized the link to the RRR-SMASTT thread.
It’s thread #1106.
You know you’re adicted to dogs when you are reading Tin Tin aloud in class and the teacher asks you to read Snowy’s part. (True story)
24 – Tin Tin is my friend’s dog’s name.
21 – Check the last? What’s that supposed to mean?
26- Gosh. Sometimes my posts are so cryptic. I meant that that applies to me.
I’ve made posts that made perfect sense when I posted but don’t make any sense even to me two days later.
27 – Haha, I do that a lot. I’ll be looking back on old threads and I’ll say “Gee, did I really just say that?”
You know you’re addicted to Sign Language when you sign nearly everything you’re saying. Heck, I signed my password to my e-mail this morning. Thank goodness my brother doesn’t know sign…

29: Oh, cool, sign language. I don’t know enough yet to sign whatever I’m saying.

34 – Yeah… I had so much fun reading it in Hebrew. Now I just need to get the rest of the books too.
35 – As a former swim team member, I think it’s perfectly normal. That doesn’t mean it’s not an addiction though, it’s just a common addiction.
You know you’re addicted to computers when your entire class knows that you mean “boss” when you say “root” (true story).
You know you’re addicted to Gatorade when you have 12 empty bottles of the stuff on the top shelf of your locker (…true story).

43~ Sorry! I would trade if I could…
I thought up 50 “You know you’re addicted to MB when….”s last summer when I was deprived from MB, and enduring a horribly long car ride. Maybe sometime I should post them, I never got around to it before.

Yikes…that sounds like an awful lot written out.
47 – Guilty of all of those, especially the first one. I was ranting about her dress for days.
50 – Um, that’s exactly what I’m planning on doing for freshman year.
51 – Yeah. Me too.
34- I should try that… I would probably get extra credit at Hebrew school… but I’m not that fluent yet.
Reading Harry Potter in Hebrew sounds cool. Unfortunately, I am still struggling with Frog and Toad in Hebrew. However, I have read and own the first Harry Potter book in French.
Harry Potter in Hebrew… say that 5 times fast
Sorry if this is a double post.
You know you’re addicted to spelling bees when…
the biggest news of the day is that your school spelling bee is no longer requiring capitalization.
you can spell Bewusstseinslage but could never remember how to spell Massachusetts.
your parents have to inform the people running the school bee about how to run it.
You know you’re addicted to Star Wars if you do everything mentioned in 45 and 49…
And consider yourself normal!
45- That’s irritating. I hate it when I can’t rid an actor of a previous role. Like The Fellow With The Unpronounceable Name, who played Hornblower in the Hornblower movies and The Stretchy Guy in Fantastic Four.
53 – And if not extra credit, at least a lot of admiration from teachers and students alike. That’s what happened to me when people discovered I was reading it.

More on math:
…you take personal offense when people moan about not liking math.

‘…you don’t have a tan because you could just put a sine over a cosine instead.’ bad math puns ftw.
I suppose I could add ‘you’ve seen and own the soundtrack to ‘Calculus the Musical’ to the Math list. Yes, it exists.

Otzi: I kind of resent the implicit assumption that all Trivia nerds are also trekkies.

Pasty, bespectacled senior: Well, just because I’m a trekkie doesn’t necesarily mean that I know the answer to the question.
-more laughter-
(seniors start to speak Klingon)
If you can remember Robert Ballard’s birthday, but not your brother’s.
3-Haha…I can do that for nearly every play I’ve been in!
You know you’re addicted to soccer when you find your lower extremities twitching…and your only watching the game.

“But I am 5. I’m more than 5!”
“Ah well, that’s the way it goes.”
“The only thing wrong with Chuck…”
And I haven’t touched that script in almost a year!

BESSIE. I suppose I should tell you needles bother me a little.
DR. WALLY. Oh. I know what you mean. Alright Augustina, could you give me your arm please? Do you mind if I call you Augustina?
BESSIE. Well, my name is Bessie.
DR. WALLY. Bessie. Of course. I’m sorry. Things have been a bit hectic around here. Dr. Serat is away on vacation, and this morning our receptionist quit. Normally Nurse Abrams would draw the blood for any blood tests, but, well, you know… Where’d I put the watchamacallit?
BESSIE. What?
70-the crucible? that really has crossed the line…
My friend is really obsessed with Harry Potter, so here goes:

-You constantly assert that the ‘facts’ you found there are true.
And, last but not least:
-You created a family tree of the pureblood characters with 112 people on it and replicated it on scrap pieces of paper for the next week.
79 – Now that’s obsessed.
80- I agree.
The only books I read for three weeks were Pale Blue Dot and The Superhero Encyclopedia, but then, I was traveling in Australia and those were the only two I took with me.

You know you’re addicted to ocean exploration when you drag your family to Mystic Aquarium for your birthday.

108 – The same thing happened to me, except it was with squash. Since I was sent home from school on 9/11, I had to help my mom cook while I was watching it on TV, and I was making butternut squash. Now I can’t eat the stuff anymore, even though it’s actually really yummy.
You know you’re addicted to ice cream when you “borrow” your roommate’s whipped cream, strawberries, and maple syrup to make the perfect sundae. (and guess whose roommate did that?)
My sister can’t eat wonton soup, because she had some just after getting her braces when a stray wire was stabbing her in the jaw. (People kept telling her that braces always hurt a little at first, and it took a while for her to convince them that this was different.)
Food aversions are easy to establish and hard to undo. That makes sense: in the wild, if you survive eating something poisonous, you might not be so lucky a second time.

112- Poor Wandering One = PIrates of Penzance, and I have sung it, as I was Isabel in our schools production of it, and the production was so bad, it almost scared me off musicals for life, although I have overcome it, and I do musicals too.
In my Fasion = Kiss me Kate
111 – Aha. Cool.

More to come…
You know you’re addicted to writing when you make up stories in your head based on what happened to you today.
This message from Augwich somehow wound up in our spam filter:
Sorta’ in response to the “You know you’re addicted to math when you…” up by comment 61 (and all true, by the way):

– You write all estimations (or almost all) up to 10 decimal places
– You pout (to the amusement of friends) when math class is canceled
– You dance around in joy when you find out that math class is 2.5 hours long that day
– You attack friends when they erase algebra formulas from the board
– You make up random algebra/geometry/etc problems in your spare time
Sadly, I’m guilty of all of these and more (and all multiple times).
Yeah, thanks for rescuing it. Oh, and the […] after know shouldn’t actually be there. That line and the one below should be on the same one.
You know you’re addicted to My Chemical Romance when you think the song Kiss Me goes “Lead me out on the moonlit floor/Take my ****ing hand”
Guilty.
You know your addicted to Twelfth Night when…
You refer to cast members by their part. (Malvolio, there’s another line to our trumpet music.)
You fruitlessly try to explain the plot to your sister.
You think in Shakespearean English.
It takes you a minute to notice that one of the cast members is talking in Shakespearean English when she says, “I prithee, turn on the lights.”
You are constantly correcting your friends’ Shakespearean English. (No, Queen Francois, they would say I thank thee not thanketh youeth.)
You make comparisons to Twelfth Night. (The guys in this poem are like Sir Toby and Sir Andrew.)
Yout know you’re addicted to Youtube when you constantly try to use it despite the fact that your computer is too slow for it.

– You memorized all of the riddles in the Riddle Game.
– You memorized the poem:
Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for the Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all,
One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all,
And in the darkness bind them.
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie.

126, sorry, the weight is not 1.834,0276 K, it’s 1.834,0276 G. Sorry. BIG difference. (No pun intended.)
You know you’re addicted to Harry potter when your friends make a HP-themed party for your birthday and you can’t stand all of the things they got wrong.
(127) Vixen — Americans use periods for decimals and commas for thousands. So over here, your dog would weigh 1.834… kilograms. If it weighed 1.834… grams, it would be lighter than a penny.
129- Funny. If the dog DID weigh 1.834… Kilograms over here, it would weigh about as much as a shetland pony. I wonder why theres the difference. (Does the living encyclopedia want to answer?) My english is starting to get messed with. I mean, the other day, I said bonnet instead of hood when I was talking about a car!!! NO!!! BRITISH LANGUAGE INVASION!!! HELP!!!
OOhh… forgot one:
You know you are addicted to dogs when:
-you and your dog have matching sweaters!!!! (Seriously, they are adorable.They’re white, with brown stars.)
You know you’re addicted to taekwondo when you have the testing cycle layout on your bedroom wall.
You know you’re addicted to RDE (honors book club) when you’d rather go to a meeting than go to get your braces off.

Wow!! I’m going with getting my braces off….
You know you’re addicted to Instant-Messaging when you start saying “LOL” instead of laughing.
You know you’re addicted to my school when:
You start doing next term’s math homework over break.
You think it’s normal to have classes for roughly 49 hours per week.
You see someone who attends the town’s public school, sniff and comment haughtily, “Townies…”
You have a friend like J, who speaks three languages, is in two singing groups, plays the piano, is on the yearbook committee, writes for the school’s newspaper and basically overachieves like a bandit.
All the days blend together and you can’t remember what you did yesterday.
You go home after the end of term and marvel at the lack of diversity.
you know you’re addicted to bellowing at crows from the 36th story of a building when you start spending a lot of time in high places and doodling black birds while you’re at it.
OK, i know it’s completely incomprehensible.
136 – I take it this is something that you do?
You know you’re addicted to *snipped site* when you check back there about every five minutes to see if someone has responded to your posts, your friends start hassling you about you hogging the computer, and you think they’re being unfair.
You know you’re addicted to school when you dream about it!
You know you’re addicted to chocolate when you feel inclined to eat a brown colored pencil you’re suppoused to be using to draw the Earth in science class.
138 – ummmmmmmmmm thats just rather strange…. eating a pencil???? and i thought i was addicted
You know when you’re addicted to Kokopelli when…
– You see him everywhere.
– You have a small statue of him.
– You REALLY, REALLY want his shirt, even more that an iPod or cellphone combined.
– Your friend has some windchimes of him, and you are absolutely EXPLODING with jealousy.
– That same friend has his shirt AND Kokopelli socks, AND a Kokopelli scarf, and you just want to DIE when you see them.
(Guilty of all of them!!!)
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you’ve got practically all the books MEMORIZED.
Mr. and Mrs. Dursley of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. They were the last people you’d expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn’t hold with such nonsense.
141 – see post 19 for one better.
You know you’re addicted to being a nonconformist when you make most of your stuff by hand, so it won’t be copying anyone else.
I saw something… it said “opening” and I thought it said “Kokopelli”.
You know you’re addicted to the viola when orchestra rehearsal completely clears up your failing-math bad mood.
And when you look forward to the weekend not for the weekend but for the concert you have on Saturday.
139- I was too lazy to explain the first time. What I actually did was color in a piece of paper and put some black lines in and write the name of a chocolate brand and I was about to put it in my mouth because it looked so appetizing (I sort of had it between my lips) when my friend saved my life by interfering.
145 – *laughs head off* *head bounces across the floor*
*picks head up*
*assembles scissors, needle, and random knick-knacks*
*sews head back on in what is hopefully the right direction*
Oh my. I know that this isn’t the joke thread but 146 just reminded me of this joke.
Q: What goes Ha ha ha plop
A: A person laughing his head off
Yes, I know its corny. Okay, the real reason I dragged myself onto the computer and moved my mouse an entire three inches so I could click on this thread was because I had the most disturbing addiction symptom yesterday.
I was in a museum looking at column capitals and one of them was square and white. I looked at it and all of a sudden, I was convinced it was a cube of white chocolate (I seem to be having a problem with this recently). I think thats a pretty clear sign of addiction.
Oh and also, I’ve only been posting on Museblog for about a week, and already, if I’m away from it for about two hours I get withdrawal symptoms. Is there such a thing as a museblog patch? Help!!111
147 – There is no cure. The symptoms just build and build.
You know you’re addicted to reading when you mark your place in a book… with another book… in which your place is marked by still another book.
*sobs hysterically*
*stops*
Wait a sec, I’m glad there’s no cure!! Now I have an incredible excuse to keep on Museblogging, after all, I can’t help it.
*wipes away tears*
*rejoices*
150 – Actually, homework can be considered a cure, although a painful one.
But for the true addicts, there are many times when you’re doing your homework and you just have to check MuseBlog. -coughmerightnowcough-
I’m addicted to multi-tasking. I can’t NOT multi-task when I’m doing my homework. Rawr.
151- *sobs hysterically* (I seem to be doing a lot of hysterical sobbing)
You burst my bubble
*bubble bursts*
*licks soap off of self*
But I guess its best I have some warning in advance. I’ve been on spring break.
149-Intense. Really intense.
You know you’re addicted to reading when you don’t mark your place in a book, so that you’ll have an excuse to read back, really, really, really far back.
(Sorry about the duble post, I have a lot to say and I am suppoused to be translating something but I don’t have a dictionary and I really really really really really hate online translators.)
*Sets swarm of hpb’s on annoying online dictionaries*
Okay, one last sorry about the double post: sorry!
You know you’re addicted to reading when you become hysterical if you haven’t read something for over forty-eight hours.
I’m very good at containing my hysteria, but it still happens.
You know you’re addicted to [insert name of soap opera/TV series here] when you get all of the episodes on DVD and watch them constantly on your portable DVD player, annoying the heck out of everyone around you.
I went to the Hoover Dam… and instead of getting ANYTHING related to the Hoover Dam, I got a Kokopelli necklace.
Same for the Grand Canyon… except it’s a shirt.
I will wear both on the first day of school after spring break.
I am obsessed.
You know you’re addicted to cross-country when:
-A five mile run is “recovery”
-Your sport is considered punishment by other sports.
-A bush is a fine toilet (but only on a run greater than eight miles)
-The freeway is backed up and you think, “Heck, I could run there.”
-Your friend says “Let’s do something fun” and you grab your running shoes.
-You have the satellite image of every trail in an eleven-mile radius branded in your brain.
Not sure how many of ya’ll are X-C runners, but all of these are true. Somewhat.
You know you’re addicted to the internet when:
-Your Favorites folder five scrolls longer than your computer screen shows
-Your DSL is faster than the speed of light
-Google and Mapquest are verbs.
157 – eeew x-country I ran it for 2 years and only did it because my friends did it too. and I kied some of the guys. UGH I’m glad i quit. I am much happier doing 100m and 200m (but the 200m is pushing my happyness)
157- I love X-C!
Wait, to pie someone isn’t a verb? Oh dear.
You know you’re addicted to Museblog when you say things like “I ‘d rather jump into a pit full of hpb’s than do that history paper!” And nobody even bothers to comment. Or when you refer to yourself as mostly harmless. And nobody even bothers to comment.
158 – Yes to the first and last… What does the second one mean? -_-;
56–I feel your pain
Whoops, wrong name.
DSL helps you get online. I guess you could still be addicted without fast DSL, but you’d be very very frustrated
165 – Oh, you would be, trust me. You could not even fathom my frustration when my dorm’s internet connection slows down/crashes entirely.
Yeah, my grandparents still have dialup. I almost have a fit when I try to get online there
Oh, we don’t have dialup, we have DSL. But that doesn’t keep it from slowing down/crashing.
You know you’re addicted to Apples to Apples when you arrange mass games of it weekly, and annoy all of your friends bugging them to come so there will actually be people there.
169 – I LOVE THAT GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *dies*
You know you’re addicted to Museblog when you haven’t written your Screnzy all day becuase you’ve been posting. Oh man!
171- Now how could anyone be THAT addicted? *coughmumble* NO, I’m not guilty! How can you accuse me of such a thing!
*coughactuallyIwaslyingI’mguiltycough*
172 – I am. Except that I don’t have a Screnzy, but my dormmates are always bugging me to get off the computer already, because I’m taking too long on here.
172-*pleads guilty*
You know you’re addicted to painting when you volunteer to paint for someone, you accidentally get paint all over your clothes while painting for this person, and you get a turp burn when cleaning up the paint, but you still consider your painting session to have been awesome.
Ha ha, once I painted my hand gold with non-water based paint and tried to use paint remover to get it off. Hurt like hell. And it didn’t even work, I just got this wierd gold speckley pattern on it and I looked like I had leprosy. I got lots of wierd looks for about two weeks afterwards.
Oops! The good thing about paint on skin is that it wears off after a while, no matter what, because the outer skin cells die and fall off.
You know you’re addicted to snacking when your meals end up being made up of various snack foods.
You know you’re addicted to spelling when you spell during car rides and breakfast. And when you’ve been spelling with one parent in one room and your sister is spelling with the other parent in another room.

You know you’re addicted to Lego Star Wars when suddenly in your dreams you have been reduced to a Lego figure and are holding a lightsaber. And chop someone’s head off. And use the Force often. And get shot, die, and fall to pieces. Literally.
182 – Since I started living in a dorm and didn’t necessarily have the time to prepare decent food for myself. Don’t worry, I usually eat normal food, but sometimes when I was really out of time I’d eat a bunch of crackers for dinner. That statement really applies to my roommate, who is widely known for eating entire meals of chocolate chip cookies.
You know you’re addicted to sudoku when you start attempting to make up your own puzzles.
You know you’re addicted to Shakespeare when you find a way to incorporate it into your Spanish project about families.

Continuation of 185: And succeed, no less.
You know you’re addicted to Bunny Apocalypse when you check for new posts every hour or so, depending on the day.
You know you’re addicted to MB when, for over half an hour, you check for new posts every ten seconds.
188 – Now I wonder who that applies to?
You know you’re addicted to reading when you finish three fat books in two days.
Um, spam?
Oh, it’s gone. *shudders* Nasty stuff, spam. I have a suspicion those links didn’t go to somewhere on the blog…
You know you’re addicted to SSSS’ when you write ’em about not having any ideas for what to write one on…
You know you’re addicted to the R&R/Just friends/advice threads when the first thing you think about any drama is “I’m going to tell the other MBers about this”
*raises hand*
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you plan to name your future children after Harry Potter characters:
Ginevra
Rose
Lily
Teddy
James
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you plan to name your next dog after a Harry Potter character.
‘k–I apologize for double or even potentially triple or more posting–for whatever reason, the box I type in here, as soon as the post gets long enough it needs a down scroll bar, the box keeps shrinking, until I can’t see what I’m typing. So, obviously that doesn’t really work, leaving me to multi-post or not know how many typos I’ve got.
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you read all the trivia cards in Mattel’s Sorcerer’s Stone trivia game and write them telling them all the typos, factual errors, poor phrasing/grammar that occured on them.
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you have made your own audio tapes of the first book, and started doing so for the seventh.
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you save the shrink wrap off of all Harry potter presents you receive
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you read “Idiot’s guide to Harry Potter” and think it’s horrible, cuz there’s so many errors, etc. and you want to write the author and tell her everything that’s wrong with her book and you have a list of over 40 problems with the book, and you’re nowhere near done writing them al out.
I mean, for one thing, she states that Albus Dumbledore’s full name is Albus Wulfric Percival Brian Dumbledore, when really it is Albus Percival Sulfric Brian Dumbledore.
She also says that Hermione’s middle name is Jane, but it’s not–it’s Jean. And I apologize for all the typos–I’ve not been able to see what I am writing since I stareted pointing out specific mistakes in idiot’s guide
Yeah–dunno if it’s my computer, or the MuseBlog website, but this is getting annoying with the shrinking box–I meant Wulfric, not Sulfric, by the way.
198 – Yeah, the shrinking box is driving me insane.
It would be interesting to have the middle name “Sulfuric.”
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you post over 5 “you know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when…” qualifications in the space of six minutes.
199: It’s not just me then? That’s nice to know….
200: Yeah, well, what can I say? I’m addicted.
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you got two HP cardboard displays from grocery stores after they were doen using them when selling the HP5 DVD in December–and you know your even more addicted, when one barely fit into the back of your parents minivan even when the back row of seats was folded flat. The one display is rectangular, about five feet long, 2-3 feet wide, and about four tall, plus the one foot pop up display on top! HP rocks!!!!!
(201) Definitely not just you. There’s a whole thread dedicated to the Incredible Shrinking Comment Box, a relic of our software upgrade for which we still await remedy. It seems to be mainly a problem with Internet Explorer 7.
The programmer told me weeks ago that he was working on a fix and would have it ready soon, but I’m starting to wonder whether he might be making the comment boxes shrink deliberately. Internet Explorer is a Microsoft product, and some people intensely dislike Microsoft.
You know you’re addicted to Harry Potter when you have 6 HP posters and 2 pieces HP material adorning your room–4 posters on the underside of your canopy on your bed, which in addition to the red cloth makes the room dim enough the light is require even in summer, and the remaining two posters and both pieces of material thumbtacked to walls and ceiling (one poster on wall, other stuff on ceiling), even though you know your father will murder you when he discovers that you used 20 thumbtacks to do so, when you’re nto even supposed to use so much as one without his express permission–which is impossible to get. Yeah, I’m dead meat. But it’s owrth it.
185) Substitute “crossword puzzles” for “sudoku” and that’s utterly me. CROSSWORD PUZZLES PWN!
Speaking (typing?) of crosswords, you know you’re addicted to them when your sole reason for connecting to the outside world (besides MB, of course) is to know the answers to clues involving it.
You know you’re addicted to graphics when you while away the time waiting in line at the bank by analyzing which Photoshop filters were used to make their posters.

208 – Wouldn’t Forrest Gump look AMAZING in Lego?
Agh, I was so busy trying to remember why I thought they were secretly corresponding that I forgot to welcome Zimfan! *welcomes Zimfan* *with pie, of course*
210-Yes, actually! I discovered the messenger bird (How it traveled across the country, I’ll never know…) just last week, with the secret documents attached to its leg. However, it flew away before I could climb onto the roof to read the rest of the letter.
(I get the feeling that somehow my theory doesn’t make much sense…)
Your sister seemed mature and un-obnoxious, from what I can remember, though…
213- Mature and un-obnoxious? Maybe on MuseBlog, but not elsewhere…

You start saying “Oh, cake!” in real life.
You can’t go ten minutes without thinking about MB.

239 – Urk, I talk in third person in my head. Like a book. AKA:
“Samantha got out of bed, annoyed and frustrated. Wait — Am I talking in third person? Whatever. Anyway, she got on the computer, logged on to MB, and began to post on the Random Thread.” Like that.
242 – I noticed that, too.

narrating your life “and he got out of bed and brushed his teeth and went off to school and…”
You limit to two very good friends, (one boy, one girl) and try to convince the boy to dye his hair red and convince the girl to dye her hair brown.
You sometimes accidentally call those two friends Ron and Hermione.
You read so many potter fanfictions on the computer that you need glasses, so you chose a pair that look exactly like harry potter’s
I don’t think anyone is guilty of any of these
I hope
254- I’d love to have Jim Dale narrate my life!
(255) JD does a fine job, but it’s a little distracting whenever his Hermione says Harry’s name: “Harreeeee.”
256: Robert, are you crazy? I’ve listened to the Jim Dale narration of SS (and part of one of the others), and I thought it was completely, and entirely, horrible. From the very beginning, he pauses at the weirdest places in the middle of sentences, and has some of the most disturbing accents for a couple of people (I forget who, but I know they existed!). Overall, not good at all…..but very useful as a technique to sit on your bed looking like you’re doing school, when really you’re doing anything but…..that’s one perk to college–you don’t have to pretend you’re doing school when you’re procrastinating–your roomie doesn’t care as long as you don’t pester her!
Come to think of it, his German accent for Bellatrix Lestrange was annoying, too. Still, he has loads of fans.
Now, for excellent audiobook narration, listen to Simon Prebble’s rendition of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell. In my opinion, it doesn’t get much better than that.
I’ve not listened to his narration of OotP, HBP, or DH, so I don’t know on Bellatrix (but I’m quite sure it was as annoying–or more so–as you say).
Hmmm, I’ll have to do that sometime. But first, I would have to read the book–I’m not big on audio books in general, because I get so much less out of them, because I tend to tune them out…..so it wouldn’t be a good way to first “read” a book.
