Every time you see something even vaguely amusing or unusual, such as an inappropriately dressed shopper in Wal Mart, you either take a photo of it or start trying to write out the moment in your head.
You spend more than 4 hours a week reading strangers memoirs and telling them that they are amazing.
You spend the first minute of every conversation you have with people trying to think of a link to mention your blog against.
You spend the last minute of every conversation you have with people trying to think of a link to mention your blog against.
You actually have no idea whatsoever how to write that book that you have thought of.
Your partner winces every time they go to talk to you, in case you ask them a question about your blog and discover that they haven’t read it for two months.
Your friends won’t tell you anything about themselves – just in case.
Your typing finger hurts like hell, all the time.
You have heard of Wanderlust.
You try and write a “you know you are a blogger” list, because you can’t think of anything at all to write but absolutely cannot stand the sight of a blank page.

Love it! Isn't Wanderlust great?? Yes, maybe someday I'll stop blogging and actually write a book!
Wanderlust? Who the hell is that?! :-)
And your typing finger (singular)? Ack! How do you manage to do a blog post with the hunt and peck system?
And about that book... er... yeah.
Amen and amen. Which reminds me, the other day on my blog....
Guilty, on all accounts. EXCEPT for the one finger typing. WHO DOES THAT? I'll tell you who. MY GRANDPA. ;)
And I KNOW that book is in there somewhere. I know it.
TERRIFIC! But you totally stole my idea...AARRGHH! (At least that's what I'm going to tell my husband when, on Thursday night, I'm frantically staring at my keyboard going 'Damn that Glen! He totally stole my idea! Now what'll I write?' HAHAHAHA!)
Yes, I know what a Wanderlust is...heck I was just there about 45 minutes ago.
My fingers are fine though (Thank you to Mrs. Hydrick back in '87 in that typing class I was forced to take! I'm up to 96 wpm...of course, they typically don't mean diddly squat when I type them but come on...96 wpm...that's freaking awesome...isn't it?)
Again, super duper post! As always!
