You know you're addicted to LV when... (slight return)

Post by **TriciaG** » February 26th, 2015, 8:14 am

I had sent a reminder email to myself, containing the total amount that we need to pay on a MasterCard credit card. With that background:

...when you see "MC amount" in the subject line of an email, and LibriVox activities automatically pop into your mind.

At work today, my co-worker was reading an e-mail and called to me, "What does BC stand for?" -- and I automatically called back "Book Coordinator" !
Of course it turned out she was talking about "b/c" as in "because" ...

...when your family and friends start wondering what your saying when: "Great, now my project has a DPL" or "an MC has claimed my project." or "the section has PL notes in the MW."

...when I am checking LV posts in the classroom when my friends came looking at it and say
"What in the world is that?"

(That is what I am doing it now

Someone complains that they haven't heard from someone else in a while. "No letters, no emails, no faxes, no phone calls, no text messages!"
You reply, "Did you try PMing them?"

When you resurrect this thread because you miss it so much

Also, when you spend your breaks and lunches in school PLing and checking 1-Minute Test and welcoming new Victims, ooo I mean Volunteers (Welcome

) after only being back for a week...

You have been (re-)assimilated

You know you're addicted to LV when you spend 8 days in a row recording and/or editing sections for your new solo. Or maybe that's an addiction to a solo

Also, when you're still doing vol. 1 of a 3-volume solo, but you already have your eye set on a next big book, which you haven't even read yet...

Maybe it's an addiction to listening to your own voice

Funny thing is, outside LV and my job I hardly speak.

When you're semi-original audio project is deluged with control-freaks, haters, and fandom politics, you say "Sod this for a lark!" and come back to perform a nice, wholesome audio book on LV.

Okay, more like "Am I the only one who..."

talks along with the Librivox disclaimer

Literally, every chapter I listen to!

I sometimes do that too, either aloud or just mouthing the words.

This is true. In fact I was on the phone with someone and surprised myself that I was able to just say it strait and verbatim. I shouldn't have been surprised, but I was.
