You Know You're A Scuba Addict When...

[JaxvilleDiver]

You pee uncontrollably at the thought of being submersed in water.

 

[tedwhiteva]

your screen saver at work is you on a shark dive

 

[baitedstorm]

you give the OK sign to your non-diving buddies by mistake instead of a thumbs up.

....whenever you are standing around, you find your hands folded over your stomach

You can point out to your non diving friends places on the map like Palau, Fiji, Belize, Yap, Cancun...

. . . you have permanently converted a bathtub or shower in your home into a gear drying rack.

. . . you have converted your foyer closet into a fill station, leaving no room to hang coats for your visiting guests.

. . . you have thrown away that useless diningroom table to make a dedicated storage area for your tanks and gear, choosing to eat on dining trays for the foreseeable future.

. . . you hide helium and oxygen supply tanks in your SUV until 2:00 in the morning so that you can cart them up and down to your high rise condo, avoiding the security guards and other people from your association or in the building that might question you about it.

. . . your desire to dive has been a contributing cause of the break up of at least one marriage in your past.
