You know photography has taken over your life when...

This is how cruel rumours start, all of these things are completely normal, everybody does these things except people that take up knitting for a hobby--(i have pictures to prove it!).

i dont eat noodles either-yuk--i feed them to the kids, its for a good cause and they know it--i eat generic baked beans and canned tomato soup thank you very much! and i dont have to move 6 cameras to go to bed....hardly ever, its simply a matter of planning and making sure there is a walking path beforehand

photography is a barely noticable part of my life and i have pictures to prove that too!

Wait a minute! You still have a walking path?
 
.... when you look in the bowl after your morning crap & it spells "Leica".
(If it's red, I'd advise a GI consult)
 
My number one is: When gorgeous women you hardly know contact you to have their picture taken ...

... and they knock on your door and you let them in and they take off their clothes -- and you regard it as work.

When you're standing at the altar getting married and you wish you were shooting it.

There were 15 professional photographers at my wedding. We were getting wedding photos for months afterward.

When you have a tattoo like this...

That is really cool. I didn't know they could do tattoos there.
 
When your primary tattoo is

(Yes, it's mine. I got it senior year of college when I started working as a Teaching Assistant instructing photo 1 and 2 classes. And realized it is what I am going to end up doing with my life.)

way more cool than a tat of an sd card ;)

After a three day drinking binge consisting of equal parts fixer and tequila you finally summon up enough courage to have ‘the sit down chat’ with your photogenic stuffed monkey.

You're buying a new jacket and take your M2 with you to ensure it will fit the new jacket's pockets....
 
Your friend gets hit square in the face with a kicked soccer ball and you're more concerned whether or not you got the shot (I did.. on point of impact. Ball touching face).

... when you read this and by the time you get to the last paren, you find yourself grinning and wanting to yell out "How great is that!" instead of shaking your head and asking about the friend. (Can you post that pic? :D )
 
You check the RFF gallery thread every week looking for your name but every week you get blown away by everybody else's work... making you try harder for next week... repeat...

This happened to me last week shooting a friend's soccer game! haha. He looked over and asked "Did you get it?" after a minute spent recovering :D

Yours beats mine.
Got to step up my game.
f2.8 on my eyelid... Hmmm...
 
You've made provisions in your will for who gets what camera after you're gone... and which ones get buried with you for use in the afterlife.
 
When you look in the freezer at the fifty 100ft rolls of Tri-X in there and wonder if it's really enough!
 
... when you photograph your self and your bride on your wedding with a Tachi 4x5 both in color and BW :p
