I've had this list for a while and I'm not sure where I got it from originally, but I thought it would be fun to share with you guys.

You know you're a bookaholic when ...

You walk into someone's house and you have to check the impulse to ignore them and immediately begin scoping out their bookshelves. A corollary: You walk into a house with no visible reading material anywhere and you immediately get nervous.

You reject purses because their book-holding potential is low.

You choose the exercise bike (or elliptical) over other nominally more appealing forms of exercise, because it offers the opportunity to read.

You're stressed out on vacation because there are too many people around (extended family) and they won't leave you alone to read.

You feel naked if you don't bring a book to some social event (baseball game, dinner with friends, church, jury duty).

You get irritated with your spouse or family member when they want to talk to you and you're right in the middle of a particularly good part of the book you're reading.

You feel the need to ask those who say they don't like reading "Don't you get bored?"

You've memorized your library card number from always typing it in online to request a book.

The librarian at the branch library you go to recognizes you and knows what books you like to read.

You take two books with you on a 5-day trip and return with thirteen. 

 

So do you guys have anything to add to the list?  I know Michelle does. She brought a book with her to the largest trade show in the country (BookExpo America) just in case there wasn't anything to read.
