+TeamAO Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Is it bad that every time I see a White Jeep going down the road, or parked somewhere. I want to put it in my backpack? If that made sense, you have my illness. Quote Link to comment
+Camo-crazed Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 If that made sense, you have my illness. darn, I thought I was generally healthy. Quote Link to comment

+Nerves Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 At first, I started bringing "outdoor"clothes to work and would change into them in the office bathroom at the end of the day. Next, I brought my change of clothes to work and left them in the car so I could change into them while stopping at a bathroom along the way to a geocache. Then, I started changing into those clothes while in my car and parked at the trailhead. Then, I started changing into them while partly getting out of the parked car. Today, I changed into them while outside the car in front of some lady. Gawd....I've lost all dignity. Quote Link to comment
+2VW's Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 When you stop at every guardrail or light post just because "There has to be a cache hidden there!" Sunday I called JoGPS on his cell phone to ask him if there were any micros in Bicentennial park because I was there just because and was trying to resist the urge to go and lift every light pole cover. I think my mother laughed at me for a good five minutes when I did that. And then he said there weren't any like that and I still had to resist the urge to check. Yeah, what if a cache was approved since the time you talked to him and you arrived at the cache site? You've got to think about these things.. Quote Link to comment
+Husker Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 (edited) You Know You've Been Caching Too Much When... ... you buy $10 worth the swag everytime you go to Wal-Mart regardless of how quick you intended to make your visit. ... you wait another day before leaving on vacation because you're waiting on 5 more PQ's. -------------------- We were spending some time in Charleston and I had 950 waypoints loaded. We went out to Fort Sumter where Night Attack is. I had the location and knew it was a virt but I didn't have the requirements. I called my Mom to have her look it up but she wasn't home and I didn't get to log it. Edited September 5, 2005 by Husker Quote Link to comment
+4leafclover Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 any trip to the "dollar store" makes it inot the "$25" store.... Quote Link to comment
+Shoknaw Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 You get called in for the random piss test and you ask the nurse if they have any extra containers. Hey they are water tight. She gave me three of them. PS: They are unused. I swear Quote Link to comment
+wandererrob Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 (edited) When you've ever thought of caching during sex. or have dreams involving the 2 My personal best so far though is: At the start of any road trip,your girlfriend makes you empty your cupholders of the dead GPS batteries so she has a place for her beverage.

tht1guy Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 When you take the entire engine crew out for "excersice" , to get the newest cache when your on duty! I do this all the time with AMH209 in our ambulance-- and he's a SUPERVISOR!!! Glad to know we're not the only ones!!! How about: You wait anxiously for your kids to lose interest in their Kids Meal toys so you can add them to your stash for the next caching trip. Quote Link to comment
