You know you dedicate too much time to Warhammer when...

Hey guys, first of all, happy 2015 to everyone!!!

I figured we would start the new year with a light thread about the hobby we all love a lot!

So, the goal is simple. Everyone is allowed to give one answer at a time to this thread. Please avoid repeating what has already been said. You can also give a little explanation to your statement if you feel like it is necessary.

So here goes:

You know you dedicate too much time to Warhammer when:

- You clean mold lines on your 18 month old daughter's toys.

...You make a girl in your bed wait because you have to finish painting a unit...


....More than once.......................................... 

-You start calling injuries "unsaved wounds"...

-You paint other things in the house using your Citadel paints (or other modeling paints)...

-You refer to illness as a Nurgle blessing...

-When you play other gaming systems requiring the use of d6's, and you say "4+" or "4 up" or what have you for the roll needed...

-You have practiced and perfected the "perfect pitch" of explaining Warhammer to 'outsiders'... (note the word practiced in there )

-You go on eBay every day to look for potentially awesome deals for your current/future army...

---

I think the list could continue

When the cost of "a few things I just picked up for myself" from GW while out Christmas shopping equates to more than the total spend on the rest of the families presents. Oops!!

When you start quoting randomly from Dawn of War .  "Heresy grows with idleness!" 

When you type 'w' into your Web browser and the browser immediately suggests warseer and the warhammer forum.

When you're too busy gaming to notice you left your PC on and signed in to the Ogre Stronghold in the presence of drunken people 

I wannit drunk when I writ dat.

-Wheb your "desk " becomes more of a paint station

When you start monitoring how far you're walking and work out distance in relation to turns it would take you to get somewhere.

When you start writing your own software to make list writing / tournament management easier

When you start dreaming about being the leader of your army in an epic battle

When you look online to buy something new and realize you already own two of everything

When you need to spice up the games you are playing by adding an alcoholic element (i.e. a shot of vodka every time you lose a combat or miscast / fail to cast a spell... For me this one gets pretty messy!)

When you start calling calculators "army list builders"

When you see every piece of rubbish that your girlfriend puts in the bin as potential "terrain"

When you are concerned that your significant other upon your death, is going to sell your hobby for what you said you paid for it

When you actually offer to weed the drive, just so you can find that choice rock that will be perfect for your next basing project.

When the only thing that keeps you awake during your commute is analyzing potential army lists and various opponent match-ups, while going over strategies and such with your "inner-voice-council"... without sounding like a split-personality sufferer...

When driving into carpark and seeing the letters M/C written on the floor, thinking monstrous cavalry instead of the more likely motorcycle.

When someone finishes a text with the letters OK and all you can think of is Ogre Kingdoms

-You go on eBay every day to look for potentially awesome deals for your current/future army...

Just once? Way ahead of you, buster - Breakfast. Lunch. Before bed. Every. Day.

and mine

- When funds are low, you start looking through your stuff and measure it in potential new boxes of models if sold on Ebay.

You spend idle time running dice averages for different units in different formations with their different gear load outs against various opponents.

Then you switch to the next unit you field and do it again....

Occasionally you draw up charge distance probability tables, accounting for swift stride.
