Signs of OW addiction ...

[Randi]

Maybe we should do a "Top Ten" list of signs that you may be addicted to OW...

#10 You spend more time on the forum than you do transcribing.
#9 When someone asks you, "How's the weather?," you respond "Light Airs, 3, bc..."

Anyone want to add a few of their own?

Discussion at New Year's Eve dinner:

Mom: "I'm gonna finish knitting one more sweater before 2021!"
Older brother: "I'm gonna finish drawing one more artwork before 2021!"
Me: "I''m gonna finish transcribing one more month before 2021!"

I just finished my task, let's see if the others manage theirs...

Your mum needs to be pretty quick at casting off and stitching up Chris. Good luck to her! And to our brother's artwork!
Well done for completing our task in good time.

I'll add, still remembering weather codes after not transcribing for 3-4 years

Well done bluemuffin - that's very impressive

Despite it being many years since you transcribed a Royal Navy log, you find yourself using the word requisite on occasion.

An intervention by Mischief the Cat trying to cure a severe case of OW Addiction by denying me the use of the office chair...

Oscar says 'Go for it Mischief' (he's no help is he? )

Wait until you've infected him and he decides to join you at the keyboard!!

While playing the space exploration game "No Man's Sky", I have named all the ships in my fleet after OW ships I have worked on.
So far, I've got the Bear (flagship), Jamestown, Albatross, Pioneer, Concord (with a crew described as "mellow", unlike her namesake...) and Unalga.
