When, even when you're no longer as often in the Downs as you used to, you mark your calendar with significant dates such as your deathday, some fellow BDers' birthdays, the day you overcame your fear and entered the RPGs through the Green Dragon Inn, the day you started PMing a BDer with whom you're still corresponding after two years (the 'anniversary' was a few days ago)...

...and it didn't even occur to you as a sign of your addiction because you thought it was completely normal.

Oh, thanks for reminding me, Lommy! Last year I took a Comm class, and one of our requirements was to make a speech. At that time I was addicted enough to talk about what I gained from joining the Downs.

Another thing - some songs remind you of the happy times when you had plenty of time to spare for the Downs. I can't enumerate any, but when I hear them, I get that eerie nostalgic feeling.

Lastly, when you come across good lines while reading books, you automatically think, Hmm, this would make a good siggy.
