You know you're a crab addict when you're stressed at work and yell out "I'm going to drop my legs! I can feel them falling off NOW!" and everyone looks at you horribly and you continue with "And my BP as well!"And then they all go back to work......(that happened to me today...stressed about my Sebastian ....lol.....)

when you get your crabbies a christmas/haunicah (sp) gift months in advance but you put off gifts for the rest of the family 'till the very last minute.

My son described his agitation/irritability to his doctor as "feeling like a molty crab that someone keeps poking". It was lost on the therapist, but I definately got him!

...When you run out side in your pj's because you thought you heard the UPS truck, then you see its just your neighbor who thinks your crazy anyway!

when you keep the decholorinated water in a special place for the crabbies, your dog drinks straight out of the sink.

You're going on a 3-day weekend trip, the crabs have plenty of water, you've hired a well-trained crab-sitter, and yet you STILL spend the whole time worrying about them, and they are the first thing you check on when you get home.

You walk into your room to get something, and EVERY TIME, sit down and watch the crabs for a half hour, even if they are just sitting there.

You agree to adopt 11 crabs and pick them up tomorrow and while out for EE you impulsively buy 2 more.

When your son has a playdate with one of his friends, you hear the tank lid being lifted from the other room and you run into the "crab room" like a bat out of heck to save them. In the process, you scare the guest child.Hypothetically speaking, of course.

when you wish you could knit them little sweaters in the winter months, before snapping back to reality.

I have to try that one at some point. lolWhen you stay up later than you should just so you can watch your hermies come out at night, even though you know it means falling asleep in class the next day.

When your house is full of different pets yet you tend to only want to shop for your crabs...
