you go online to celebrate your IUD approval, because you got the call while your boyfriend is en route to work and can't be reached, yam is probably at work and would appreciate it, too. Anyone else? IP: Logged |

>yam is probably at work and would appreciate it, too. bahaha! Well, I did. That's totally cool! Let's see, how about when you've posted 1800 messages without being a spammer? [This message has been edited by yam (edited 08-08-2002).] IP: Logged |

When you show off a new potholder sent to you in a Digs exchange to your "real" friends, and you say "My friend in NY (or wherever) sent this to me!" You don't even try to explain the connection. And, Crowjoy! Where the hell have I been??? Congrats baby! IP: Logged |

You bring up threads from Digs in other conversations, by saying, "Well, this friend of mine had an interesting opinion on that..." IP: Logged |

You find yourself saying, "A friend of mine in Maine" or "A friend of mine is from Rockaway Beach" and the friends you've hung out with for years do double-takes, because when did you sneak out and make friends across the country? "Wait... how do you know that person??" they asked, completely confused. IP: Logged |

you contemplate making up a digster bumper sticker for your next crosscountry road trip, a "honk if you love zesting" kind of thing, to identify yourself to other possible digsters. IP: Logged |

Along crowjoy's line, announcing that you've found a job after 6 months of unemployment before telling you family who've been worried sick about you. IP: Logged |

Ha, yeah--you know you're a digster when you try to work zesters into conversations with friends and family. And giggle helplessly every time they bring it up themselves. IP: Logged |

I should have mentioned this earlier, but didn't remember until I was going through my D&D notes. I was playing a D&D game and one of the villians was codenamed "yam" and I looked to the DM and said "yam?". "Yes, they all have code names of fruits and vegetables." Then I am was like, "But I have a friend named yam in real life. Change it" Boy did that get a few odd looks. IP: Logged |

When you pick up random things on-sale for a possible Digs-Exchange theme... LOL I love knowing what everyone is into, because I have about 50 extra people to pick up surprises for!

When we all rely on other digs to advise us on our personal problems, so much so that Yeefan makes another board.

You spend so much time on the boards your roommate has to email you a grocery list because the phone is busy.

When you recommend the site to former professors because they asked you where you got a recipe. When you come up with a new, fun storage solution or decorating idea and the first thing you think is, "Oh man, I have to hit the boards!" IP: Logged |

When you've been gone for two weeks and check the boards within the first hour of being at home again. When you've accidentally called a coworker named Yan Yam more than once (and hoped she just wrote it off to a bad TX mumble). Yikes, that's not cool. IP: Logged |

when you actually spend money at the Denver Airport to check internet just so you can look in on the digsworld. when you feel really bad when somebody's feelings get hurt and actually try to work it out even though you don't even know them and know you probably will never meet them. when you feel guilty for not logging on in two weeks and feel like you've let a friend down. (i've missed you guys! but I will be back at my DSL-home in two weeks and I can't wait!) IP: Logged |

When waiting for a haircut, you wander into a gift shop and notice a SPECIFIC MAKER OF GREETING CARDS and you look through the birthday ones to see if it's the other gretchen's. AND, you know you've found it when the design company's name is really similar to their Digsname. Nice card, gia! IP: Logged |
