Anyway... You know your Downs habit is going a little far when you pick through your alphabetti spaghetti (I am so sophisticated) to make the word 'Barrow Downs' on your plate... (followed by TARDIS, Tolkien and Lord of the Rin (couldn't find a 'g')). I feel like I'm 12 again...

Hookbill, quite technically Barrow Downs is two words...
You know when you're addicted to the Barrow-Downs when you correct someone like I just did...

Heh. It's okay, I thought it too. Then I saw TARDIS.... And as for me....feel free to point and laugh.  I was at band rehearsal last week and we were playing a Czech piece. (Czech here having the meaning that it was composed in Wilbur, a small town by where I go to college which hosts "Czech Days" which is essentially an excuse for everyone in the area to....erm, I can't really say it on the board. Point is, as far as I'm concerned there's not much Czech about it....But I digress....) Moving on....Czech piece, to refresh your memory. Well, it had been a long day and we were supposed to play one movement all legato and pretty like (don't ask) and I was spacing off looking over the music and all I saw was Czech and legat (the music wasn't copied very well) and I chuckled in the middle of rehearsal. I remembered it during rehearsal tonight and had a total giggle fit because I realized that it was perfect fodder for this thread. (Also, I was playing some game where you had to escape from the Land of Nog....erm, I mean Nod. Enough said)

When you get nearly as many birthday greetings from your fellow dead than from those who know you in life....

You know you're addicted to the Barrow-Downs when you are trying to explain the Downer to your grandparents and you are trying to explain it in a way that will not make it sound like a lie. (Don't kill me)
Or when the only newspaper you read is the Downer, and you proudly proclaim that fact to everyone! Or when you have almost (unintentionally) have gotten your grandma to come on the Barrow-Downs..
