You know your a crab addict when....
quote:you know you're an addict if you know what crabby salt water tastes like. ****shifts eyes around room nervously,,..*** Huhmp! What kind of crazy person would know that kind of thing.... Well lets see I think it was a couple of things that happened that clued me in. -I like Survivor for the hermies.-I noticed the hermit crab that "Bootstrap Bill" crunched up on Pirates 2. Absolutely made me ill.-I can not bring myself to eat anything crab. -I cant sit on the inside of a "Joe's Crab Shack". The smell of crabbies cooking makes me sick.-I saw a gorgeous fish set up and thought..."If only those fish were gone"-I buy one shrimp at a time-I sit up late to watch my crew and then blame my lack of sleep on my insomnia-I check on my crabs more often than my kids in the middle of the night-I cant visit my petstore without bringing a KK complete with ee and a hut, declor water and food...ya know..just in case.-First thought in my head when shopping for anything is "Can my hermies use this somehow?"-Convert bathroom supplies into hermie shelves and such-Speak to my hermies as if they are 10 month old babies..."Does Mommies little hermie girl like that avacado? I know she does, yes she does!"Of course this list could just go on and on. We are all crazy. Just face it.

quote:I saw a gorgeous fish set up and thought..."If only those fish were gone" lol you wouldn't belive how many times I've thought that. Especially when they are selling them for cheap."Wow thats a big tank. Comes with free fish? Darn it.... I wonder how clownfish and tang are? Maybe with enough butter..."

Don't tell my goldfish I said that, they wouldn't be very happy with me....I know what Crabby saltwater tastes like, I was um, checking the mix....(-.-)You know you're a crabby addict when you try to talk your fiance into building you a fish pond, so that the hermies can take over the larger 75 gallon tank.

you base your shopping list on, "now what can my hermies eat?"you sacrifice your personal preference of salted peanut butter and buy unsalted so that you can feed it to the crabs.
