When you get voice mails that start with, "I know your probably out fishing but..."

when your girlfriend walks past the computer and your on a thread looking at plugs and all she says is "you want that one huh?"

when you walk in you're apartment at 4am and your roommate and his trashed buddies see you with all your gear and just give you the most confused looked ever.

when anyone tries to use your shower and its filled with gear, there is also gear/plugs in every room including the bathroom.

when you turn down expensive dinners from you're boss only to have two 99 cent junior whoopers so you can get the water sooner.

when you tell your boat friends you 'have to work' and can't make it out with them, only to go rock hopping.

when your girlfriend knows that when she wants Perry's ice cream in wareham she just has to ask if I need to go to M&D's.

when your girlfriend decides she wants to doodle pictures of you at breakfast this is what shes comes up with.

the list goes on...
p.s. I like st. croix rods, i don't know where she got this from
