You Know You're Addicted to the Case When:

[curiositycat]

Just thought of another...

When you suddenly have a burning desire to own and train a cadaver dog. You envision yourself and your highly intelligent canine companion charging onto the scene of missing person cases across the USA. You are best of friends (since you lost most of your other friends). You and your dog are unstoppable. He/she seems to read your mind. You are helping families everywhere and "getting the bad guys" with your incredible skills as a team. Then you look down and notice your cat is giving you dirty looks (which he is doing right now).

:beagle::beagle-flip::floorlaugh::Banane51:
Guess I should explain this..two cadaver dogs; me laughing at your adorable post and a super hero.YOU helping families everywhere and getting the bad guys!

This is just too cute, suzet.

You all have made me laugh a lot tonight. Self-deprecating humor is my favorite, and you guys are the best at it.

and you know it by heart!! Seriously, just happened!:woohoo:

 

[Tricia]

Oh boy, we're a bunch of addicts, no? I wonder if Tricia is planning on creating a support group down the road..

When you log on to the forum you own and wonder, "Should I plan to start a support group down the road for these people?"

When your best childhood friend finds you after searching for years,calls you and cries quietly with joy because we are talking, and the first thing you say to her after not speaking for over 35 years is, "Did you hear what happened in Caylee's case today?" (true)

When won't go to the store in case you miss something so you convince yourself it is a good thing to eat all the dry goods in the house because next year they will all be 20 years old and need to be thrown out.

When people ask what you do all day you flat out lie and say things like, "Oh I am so busy...and you?" When in reality it is a constant search for new info on the case. That, in your mind, is "busy,"

You actually feel anger towards your bladder and bowels because they make you leave the computer screen just when you want to read ONE MORE POST.

You are afraid if you add any more to this list your immediate family will find out and have you committed for life.

These are all so funny. I really needed this levity! Now, I've been thinking:

1. You set up both televisions to tivo NG and Greta, but log onto WS first.
2. Watch tivo'd programs and argue with the tv, 'cause that wasn't what you just read on WS.
3. You look at the commercial from the medical supply company that sends catheters directly to your home in a whole different light.

 

[Amity]

Y'all, I really needed this tonight.
My cheeks hurt from laughing so hard at all of these addictive symptoms. OMG, my cheeks literally hurt!
Sadly (or not), I can relate to so many of them.

1.When your hubby comes home from work and no longer asks "How was your day babe?"
Instead it's " Anything new at the garage door today, babe?"

2.When there is snow on the TV and hubby asks "Did you pay the Dish bill?"
Knowing full well you got online to do banking and pay the Dish bill that was already late but instead went straight to WS and forgot all about the bills. Yep, Dish was shut off.

3.You've caught yourself saying "Absolutely" way too many times.

4.You talk to your family about the case but instead of words you forget who you are talking to and use initials instead:
LE did a search of GA's trunk. WSers are supposing it's a gun. It's against CA's bail regs. LP probably tipped off OCSO.

5. You think you might be developing a urinary tract infection because you refuse to get up to go pee, hold it way too long afraid of missing something on WS.

 

[Winnts]

1. You pass on your scheduled gym nights for close to 2 months, what's a couple extra pounds.
2. You no longer go home for lunch anymore on workdays (in case something happens on the drive home).
3. You begin to 'Pull a Casey' and lie to your famly and friends on why you cannot make your scheduled plans with them.
4. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner is now eaten in front of the computer.
5. You reconfigure your computer with new hardware to be able to watch the news updates/talk shows on your pc, simultaneously while you read websleuths.
6. You are amazed that others do not want to talk about this case 24/7.
7. You know more than all of the news shows and reporters on television combined and scream at the tv with the proper facts (while your family stares at you in horror).
8. You fear your legs are beginning to form blood clots from being in the same position for so long.
9. You begin to use first names (Tim, Leonard, George, Cindy, Yuri...) when talking to friends and family and you are annoyed that they have no clue who you are talking about.
10. You begin to fear that all your Google searches are one day going to come back to haunt you if your computer is ever confiscated.
11. Lookout Rachel Ray, the 5 minute meal has now been perfected.
12. You are shocked that the 400 page affadavit is not on NY Times BestSellers list yet and cannot believe no one has taken you up on your offer to lend it to them.
13. You believe your family is secretly planning an intervention and suddenly you can relate to the addicts on A&E who want nothing to do with rehab or help.
14. You have had to restrain yourself from reaching through your computer and doing something not so nice to the posters who believe that the tow truck company was to blame for the dead body in the trunk.

3.You've caught yourself saying "Absolutely" way too many times.

I can't even say "Absolutely" anymore, because it creeps me out!!

 

[SimplyComplicated]

These are awesome!!! Much needed laugh-

1- Your kids (10 and 11) simply sigh and roll their eyes when they see you on the laptop with NG on tv.

2- You have to create a make shift laundry hamper since all the other ones in your house are FULL.

3- You get invited to a movie and hide your cell phone (logged into and reading WS of course)

4- You try to figure out if you can make the web cam links work on your cell phone.

5- When you wake up in the morning you run to the computer instead of to pee!!

6- You get angry when someone doesn't seem interested in hearing ALL the new details. How dare they!!

 

[SimplyComplicated]

Does anyone else have a Favorites folder set up with just links about this case?

* OCSO webpage
* OC clerk page
* webcam page
* websleuth's CA forum
* all the news channels following this case
* Casey Anthony's photobucket account (which has just been taken down)

And so forth? :blush:

OMGosh YES!! LOL

 

[Winnts]

you know you are addicted to websleuths when:
1) everytime your hubby walks into the room to find you on the computer he says, "did you crack the case yet?"

Hahahahahaah you married a comedian I see.

 

[ThoughtElf]

2- You have to create a make shift laundry hamper since all the other ones in your house are FULL.

We call it 'Underwear Mountain.'

Great thread!!! The nearest pizza place is 0.8 mile away... you normally walk or drive to get the order. You surprise the order taker with a delivery request instead of pick up.

 

[EastSideOfSaddness]

Everyone at work teases you and says "I saw you on the news protesting in front of the Anthony's" *jokingly*

I hold my pee so long so I don't have to pass my husband thinking he doesn't realize I'm on the computer if he can't see me.

I look around my computer desk and see a Wendy's cup, an empty bag of goldfish, a Mountain Dew can, a 2 liter of diet tea and paper plates stacked up from all my dinners in front of the computer.

Every time I leave the house I peer into woods, look at retention ponds that I never knew existed and when I see more than one cop pulled over to the side of the road I wonder if it has anything to do with the case.

My husband says "On our day off can we please cook together so we can have some decent lunches for the week"? (my DH hates cooking and all the sudden he's excited to help)

I haven't worn makeup to work and people are asking me "are you tired"? "do you feel ok?" I must look like hell, LOL.

I just do enough laundry to last until the weekend.

The list could go on and on. :bang:

 

[texasgirl]

OMG! Who knew you guys were so friggin' funny??

You know you're obsessed when:

1. You are 33 years old and have never broken a bone in your body until TONIGHT when you broke your piggy toe on the vaccum running down the hall because DH said that they were discussing the case on our local news (here in Texas can you believe it?). It REALLY hurts and the news was old news but that's okay.....Who needs their piggy toe anyway? :waitasec:

2. Your DVR is so full that it won't record anything else anymore because all you ever watch is NG, OTR and Geraldo.

3. You used to be so obsessed with Big Brother that you wouldn't go anywhere when it was on for fear that the DVR would mess up and not record but now you don't even know who was evicted the last three weeks?! And you'll never find out either because of #2 above.
