When you wander around work with one of those cheapo biners as a keychain hoping someone will give you a BD Quicksilver..

you you keep checking rc.com to see what other people say on this topic to see if anything else said aplies to you

because that foour hours of climbing you did still isnt good enough you go buildering on the six foot tall rock wall to work on form with bloddy toe

You buy the Yosemite book of Heinz Zack at lunch break, go home, start reading it and forget to eat lunch. (Did it today)

If someone in your family at the 4th of July dinner mentions that he/she has been in Yosemite, you start a 20 minutes speech on the history of climbing. Even if you know FOR SURE that nobody cares besides you.

You buy climbing gear (dope) without telling your wife.


You seriously think about how much it will cost placing a good sized granite boulder in your backyard instead of a stupid tree.

You try to guess if that guy in the car besides you is a climber looking at his forearms

on the 4th of july you climb onto the roof of a press box at a soccer field to get a good view of the fireworks. Then when you get caught and the guy is telling you "what if you fell blah blah blah and all that crap" your just thinking, he doesn't understand. (true story)


when you ponder going out at 2 in the morning to go buildering so it's less likely you'll get caught.

I'm so addicted that I have been called at 1 in the morning, while I was thoroughly drunk, and told I had a 5am trip in the works, and it was the best news I could imagine getting! As long as its climbing, the time really doesn't matter.

... you get up at 2am, drive three hours to meet your partners, drive two more hours to get to the mountains, make a 2.5 hours approach and solo a 250m long route "because it would be too slow to climb in three" than wait for the others on the summit in wind and -10C, get cold and spend next three days in feaver... and still think it was a good season opener :D
