You KNOW you're addicted to domaining if...
... you subconciously type godaddy.com instead of google.com. (That REALLY happened to me twice today)
... searching at whois.sc has become a favorite activity.
... you visit a new website and ponder the domain's value.
... you notice your husband/wife "checking out" domain sites than NamePros and get upset.
... dreams of being on the top of the memberlist at the live chat become repetitive.
... -RJ- is your idol.
... you chant "Go, Go, Go!" when holding a domain auction or watching a large sale on Afternic
... domain auctions become your Monday Night Football.
... you blurt out "Great domain!" or "That domain stinks!" when your friends talk about eBaumsWorld.com or Miniclip.com.
... your prayers at night and/or morning contain a phrase similar to "...and if I die before I wake, let my names their money make..." or "...please let the owner of business.com accidently click the 'Drop this name' button..."
... you consider domain renewal notices sent via post mail a balanced breakfast.
... Bob Parsons calls you and tells you to "stop bogging down my site!"
... you develop 15 domain fansites.
... GoDaddy's domain status change notifications are considered "spam".
... you put a bid in of $250 for m.tv even though you know you won't win.
... you refresh the domain lookup page of finance.com hoping it was accidently dropped.
... you play VirtualDN more than Battlefield 2 or Civilization III.
... you go to DnJournal before CNN.
... you query a WHOIS on a domain name only to find out you already own it.
Hm, maybe I'll add more soon... post your own if you would like and if it's good I'll add it.
