This topic popped up over at the WinePress forums... ScottS Moderates the Mead section there, which is one of the reasons why we don't see him here as often as we used to. Anyway this reminded me of our own Obsessed with mead thread.
I thought you might enjoy the fruits of my post there...
You know you've got the bug when...
You're always sneezing, nose running... Oh, sorry wrong bug.
1. You classify everything in two categories... Fermentable and NonFermentable
2. The most expensive thing in your house is a bottle of wine.
3. When you hear "Whine Whine Whine" you instinctively grab three glasses and a bottle.
4. You know more about grapes than you do about your spouse.
5. You're late for work because you couldn't decide which of your wines would go best with Eggs, Bacon and French Toast.
6. A "Nice Rack" means having exactly a glass left over to sample.
7. You can't understand why people might object to the terms "Full Bodied" or "Good Legs" .
8. You've got both the local HBS, and boutique wine seller on speed dial.
9. You jump up in the grape displays at the supermarket barefoot to crush the grapes.
10. You've finished this list and it doesn't sound unreasonable.
