...when you leave your e-mail open all day so you can refresh for CC notifications and as soon as you wake up you check your e-mail and go on CC and that's also the last thing you do before you go to bed and you have sore red eyes from looking at the comp screen all day....i'm gonna need glasses soon lol

.....when you just think of this name for a perfume while you are typing this post:

'Obession' a perfume by cake central icon_lol.gif

When i look at all the stuff i have bought because *someone* said it was great/must have/sure thing/better than the previous thingy/have you seen and bought/look at this/just released/coming to an on line shop in 2 weeks/...etc etc etc.

Good grief - i could have funded a return trip to the USA and Canada and met you all in person by now.......but then i wouldn't have so many toys - and a 4th bedroom that is now converted into one giant walkin cake cupboard

That's funny. I used to get annoyed with my boyfriend for looking at "car porn" instead of interacting with me. Now I'm annoyed because he's using the computer and I can't look at "cake porn"

..when you consider having your husband committed because he asked again, "How can you look at cakes all the time? They're just cakes." (Although even he was impressed with the Jack Daniels bottle/poker cake. I'm sorry I don't recall who made it, but it was terrific, and so realistic. If you didn't see it, it's worth the search.)

...when no matter what you have left to do on a cake (i.e. cover it in fondant, fully decorate it, create a 3-D replica of the Eiffel Tower) and it's 10pm and your husband is going to bed and he asks you how much longer you're going to be, it's ALWAYS, "Oh, this shouldn't take me long. I'll be in bed by 12. Promise!" Then, you go crawling to your bed at 4 or 5am only to wake up two hours later to finish the thing that wouldn't "take me long." It never fails.

OR

...when you have various amounts of powdered sugar, cake batter, chocolate, on your laptop from the CC references you make while you're trying something new...

You know your a CC addict when you ask another family member to check the email and they reply, "No there's nothing-ONLY CC stuff." And they actually say "CC"!

... when the school calls to ask you if you are going to pick up your children and you are only just then getting in the car because you just had to post that one last post before leaving and time evaporated yet again.

... when your hubby wil turn on any cake show on the bedroom TV to lure you off of CC and at least into bed. icon_wink.gif He really gets a hoot out of this one because it takes all of three seconds-I have cake show radar. LOL
