You know when you're addicted to EVE when...
I was inputting orders on to the work database and we have an account for PURE Interiors. I have to keep an eye out for any accounts which are on hold or closed.... so here's me, after reading a forum post over the weekend... I go to input an order and I think to myself, PURE? They're disbanded.... rofl I've only been back in EVE a couple of weeks too! It really did make me think twice for inputting the order *slaps forehead*

I was streaming the tournament footage from Youtube when my boss walked by earlier today. Thankfully, the stream was on the second monitor and there was work on the primary monitor.

Re: You know when you're addicted to EVE when...
1) When you start to think your wife not being willing to play EVE as well is a serious character flaw and possibly more of a problem than her not putting out (also an indicator of advanced age too, lol)
2) When it is a 50% proposition that you will have at least one EVE-related dream in a given night
3) When you repeatedly tell the wife or friends about game events even when you know they don't play and care less...but you still do it anyways because you are so excited about it
4) When you hold off on buying new games like "Call-of-Duty Modern Warfare 2" or "Left for Dead 2" because you know you will just not have time to play them because EVE takes all your free time
5) When you are grouchy and snap at your wife...and then realize it is because it is patch day/server down/computer or internet dead and you can't play EVE and are depressed
6) When you are thinking of buying a PDA just so you can run EFT on it to play with ship fits when you are bored at an event away from the computer (boring party, church, etc)
All apply, God help me.

Re: You know when you're addicted to EVE when...
When you sit at work reading about some idiot losing isk, and you have an immediate urge to tell your co-workers about it...
When your in a college dorm, and one of the people yell down the hall "NO YOU IDIOT SHOOT THE OTHER GUY," and the other people in the dorm then know who you are after...
When you "make time" for your girlfriend....
When you resolve not to play EvE when the girl is around, then tell her that you where doing homework when she was away, when in fact you where doing homework and ratting/mining/pvping...
When you think about how much more you can get done on EvE, if the girlfriend would work later in the evening...
When you sit around for an hour or to and try to figure out how to play for a few hours on the weekend without the girl noticing so you can start FCing a fleet...
When you realize that its cheaper to play EvE then go out on a date, and sometimes more entertaining.
When you look at a "I am addicted to EvE thread" and pray that your girlfriend never is made aware if its existence....

Your boss stares at a Moon Reaction ROI calculator built with Excel and thinks it is a work deliverable that was actually done the day before.
