You might be a firefly fanatic if:

At school all you can think about is how many days to go before Friday rolls around.

While your at work your rushing around to get things done to go home and watch any episode of Firefly.

You come here everyday!

You can't stop telling your friends to watch the show to get them hooked so you can talk to them about it.

Your writing this post during school because you can't concentrate on work and can only think about tommorows episode of Firefly.

Your forcing your friends to come over so they can watch firefly.

Ok enough of that.. Sorry I just wanted you guys to tell me that I'm not crazy... Thanx alot

ROB

oo! how bout.. you bring the tape INTO school and sit in the chorus room watching it because you can't make it a day without

Or.. .you get all spazzy and fall out of your chair just thinking about it.

Or... for Melee.. you name your shoes after Zoe and Wash

You take up saying "shiny" to people who have no idea what Firefly is

You want to juggle geese.

You already know that you want to go as a Firefly character for Halloween next year

Well, I'm not that bad...

Although admittedly my current schedule on Saturdays after waking up is feverishly search for the ratings, and then either cheer or moan depending on how it's done.

I am 50 years old and sneak looks at all of the posts by you young people, while at work. Since I don't take breaks or lunch, I don't feel too guilty.

I guess that's something else very special about Firefly.
It doesn't matter how old we are, we are drawn to this thing like moths to the light.
One is in school.
Another- myself- 33 years old.
A third 50.

A shiny (*cough*) bridge to span what they call the generations gap.

When you're preflighting your airplane, you find yourself singing--out loud--"I don't care / I'm still free. / You can't take the sky from meeeee!"

When your friends know better than to ask you what your plans are for friday night.

You've named your new car Serenity, and your new daughter Kaylee.

People keep asking you what's with all the blue suns you've been painting on everything.

You work at an airport, and you constantly have to fight the urge to kick the local bully into a nearby jet engine.

You've named your hot glue gun Vera.

This Halloween, you wore a stunning satin dress, and primped your hair. When people ask what you're supposed to be, you reply: "Space hooker."

You are here, reading this post.

You begin to suspect that the person that oringially creeped you out might end up your future spouse.

You think you're taking notes on your Economics lecture, but look down and discover you've actually been doodleing the lyrics to "Jayne's Song."

When an inordinately pretty girl wants to have sex with you, after you ask if she's a praying mantis, you double check that she's not going to hand you over to space pirates.

When people notice your numerous framed pictures of Mal/Jayne/Joss Whedon and ask if he is your husband, you sigh and breathe, "If only..."

You rig your VCR with a security device so that if anyone tries to tamper with it when it is set to record on Friday night, they are electrocuted.

You've noticed a sharp increase in your use of the words "ain't" and "reckin'"

The number of coats you own that are brown has noticably increased over the past couple months.

You force your boyfriend/husband to wear tight pants and suspenders, 'cause of the sexy.

You closed down your lemonade stand in favor of standing on the street and offering to "fix" people's bibles for a reasonable price.

Okay ... it's 7 in the morning, I'm not even remotely awake but still I just laughed my butt off.

That was some brilliant stuff

Keep it coming, guys.

"We're still flying."

"That's not much."

"It's enough."

You walk around with a bible hung over the cast on your arm, and when people ask about it, you explain that your waiting for faith to fix you.

You've replaced "goodbye" with "have good sex!" as your standard saying when someone leaves.

You're taking Chinese 101 as an elective next semester. You have a feeling you'll need it in the future.

You and one of your best friends aren't talking right now because you reciently got into an arguement over which is the better show: Star Trek or Firefly. You're convinced that he's just mad that Trek lost.

When your friend tells you he bought his cat so that he would have a friend and companion, you nearly snort your drink out your nose.

hehehe... this is FUN!

-You name your shoes Zoe and Wash

-You start kicking your feet together, and when someone asks what you're doing, you explain to them that your shoes are married, and they're just having a bit of a tiff.

-You're friends who don't watch Firefly know most details of the episodes and can quote it... just from being around you.

-Your firends who don't watch Firefly have actually picked fights with your shoes named Wash and Zoe (Wash still hates you BTW, Dan :D)

-On Halloween while trick or treating you randomly started running about singing the Jayne song, followed by the Firefly theme.

-You've started dropping your g's.

-When your VCR screwed up and didn't tape Firefly, you had serious trouble sleeping until you could borrow a tape from a friend.

-You've ever dressed up like a Firefly character for no reason other than you just felt like it.

-If Firefly gets canceled, you truly believe you'll cry for weeks

-You go through withdrawl just waiting for the next episode.

Eh, I'll think of some more after school... :P
