Well... I knew I was watching too much Big Brother when I stay up way past my bedtime reading the LF posts, then reading my scary horror book before I finally sleep...


Hence giving me nightmares (really!) of a slasher in the Big Brother House. It was quite horrifying... although I don't know which part was most horrifying... the slasher or the houseguests lol!

While recopying my notes from my independent film class I noticed that I had written power of veto instead of point of view....sigh. School is so going to get in the way of my BB addiction!

Return of: You know you are watching to much big brother when....


You begin to live a dream life at night (Ala "Passion of Mind") where you are in the big brother house and you begin to wonder which world is real.

...when you just find out the last show falls on your wedding anniversary and you're trying to figure out how to finagle watching it and have the romantic evening your husband is planning...so sad.

You know you are watching too much BB3 when...

Your 3 year old daughter knows each of the house guests names, and says goodnight to them before she goes to bed.

btw, she really likes Amy :)

When you wake up several times during every night and realize your brain is working out "What Ifs" for BB3.

When you unconcsciously reach for the volume button when you hear a houseguest start singing because you know the FOTH music is about to start blaring from your speakers.

When you dare to let real life encroach and go out school supply shopping on Saturday and have to make a big pot of coffee and stay up half the night reading what you missed all day long!!!

You know you are watching to much big brother when....

You sit at the computer so long that when you get up you walk like Gerry.

...when you check the boards here before you check your email.

...when your first thought upon waking is 'what happened on BB while I was sleeping.'

...when you are no longer aware of how weird your BB involvement might seem to other people. (But who cares what non-BB people think anyway).

...when what they're having for dinner affects your own choice for dinner.

...when an East Coaster forgets eastern time and lives on BB time.

...when you start using words like "alliance" and "showing your hand too soon", "pull a big brother" and "the devil" when referring to people at work. We have some situations at work and I keep pulling these out with everyone just shaking their heads laughing. Then the next day, you hear someone else do it...too funny

Ellenkats- This season I have changed this website to my homepage instead of my email page.

My husband bought a new computer so I got the old one and networked it so I could be on the computer when ever I wanted.

I bought one of those elliptical exercisers.

And first thing in the morning- I do say to my dog who follows me "Let's go see what happened in the BB house"

Cinder -- hehe. I have this area, live feeds postings, plus all 5 RealPlayer feeds set as QuickLinks on my desktop. I must be able to get to these places in one click. lol I even made my own numeric icons for the feeds (1 2 3 4 Q) because I didn't want to waste a second figuring out which link went to which feed. Pathetic enough? ;-)

you revolve all your errands between the hours of 7am - 12pm EST cause you know the HG's will be sleeping and you won't miss anything on the live feeds.

you tell your husband that if he doesn't appreciate you more you'll audition to be on the next BB and leave him alone with the kids all summer.

When you buy a generator because at one time in the distant past, your electricity went out during a show.

Kinda scary. :)

Saturday I was limping to the kitchen on a potty break (many of you know I have been bedridden with sciatica) and one of my kitties begged for food. I tried to arc my back such that I could feed her and not hurt myself- abd suddenly something in my back (a disc it turns out) pinged, boinged, and sent electric shock pain like none I have ever felt down my leg) I had to crawl to the bed. I lay back and cried with pain. I could not reach my pain meds, and as the adrenaline of the incident faded, I could not move my legs or lower body in any direction without screaming in pain. I (thank God!) had the phone on the bed and I started calling people who might be able to help me. My husband was photographing a wedding so I could not call him and did not want him worrying. I couldn't reach anyone who might be able to come. I finally reached an old old friend who said he would be right over.

What did I do then? With my hand stretching stretching stretching I inched my labtop over slowly, painfully, and worked and worked at it until I could get the live feeds going. I could not move to watch the screen as it hurt too much, but I lay, moaning occasionally, and listened with my ear right next to the speaker.

I've got the BB disease, and I've got it bad!

Lol to all because I can relate so well.

How bout this one...

when you're at the store and you see a game called "Kings in the corner" and you know it is the BB game of choice so you buy it and play it all night and feel like you're in the house. How is that for pathetic?

And there's this one...

When you have a dream about whether the time on the microwave is correct or not. (I doubted it enough this morning that I had to check it with the clock on The Weather Channel.)
