TeeDubbs Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 ... you still can't bring yourself to make a pb&j I LOVE PB&J. I have one for breakfast on toast at least 3/4 times a week. Also, it's a great snack when you feel a little hungry. Anyways, when you work a restaurant and roll step when you deliver food because it keeps it steady on the plate (especially soup) You look at a drummer's rack tan and think, "dang, that is awesome" You get your final assignment in Theory class where you have to compose a piece implementing topics discussed all year, and you instantly think you're going to write a piece for a drum corps hornline You actually write said piece for a drum corps hornline You're a music education major and you're already planning what kind of marching shows you'll do with your band, and how you're going to arrange tunes (I actually asked my band director for a score so I could get started now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxingfred Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Exactly! I can't stand watching anything that is supposed to be synchronized because it drives me crazy. Two plays really drove me crazy: pirates of penzance and Oklahoma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow_7 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 When you know more about the repair, maintenance, and mechanics of a bus than you do your own car. When your treasured mementos include suction cups, chrome plated lug nut covers, and bus reading lamp replacement bulbs, 2 pack, 1 left. When you know more about affixing a hammock inside of a bus, than outside of a bus. When someone mentions surfing and your first thought is a bus. When shopping and you cross an aisle of air fresheners, you think of a bus. When someone tells you that they're currently living in and/or named their vehicle, you assume it's a bus. You recognize the sound of a diesel engine even though you've never owned one. When all of your civilian / leisure clothes are active wear / sports wear. When you pack for a trip, and you include everything, including nail clippers, and two month supply of disposable razors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimF-LowBari Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 When you stop in some public place -- listening to the music you're hearing in the background...Your wife looks at you and asks (wearily, because this has happened before and knows what's going on), "What?" You reply with an ID on the song and what corps played it...thus getting you a slap on the arm. ----- Lost count of how many times I've done this! Guilty.... I ticked (no pun intended ) my wife off when we went on a ten hour bus ride and she complained about being uncomfortable on a bus. My response was ZZZZZZZZZ..... (soon as the bus moves, I'm off in dreamland). You know you're a DC history bug when you hear a Alumni-type corps show and can name the songs and years played. And the years were from before your time. Did this watching Skyliner Alumni and didn't realize how bad I was until a song started in the middle of their show and my sister said "OK, what year?"

CrunchyTenor Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 (edited) ...when my wife was in labor and I could identify the baby's heart rate by ear almost as accurately as the nurse reading the chart coming out of the machine. I don't think I was ever more than 3-4 bpm off. 1) One technique of natural childbirth is to have a code word or phrase to coach your partner through labor pains. When it got tough for Jan, my code phrase was "catch the triple". Since that was something she knew she could do in her sleep, it helped her get over the hump at the apex of the contraction. I wish I would have had a kabuki to toss in the air when the baby was delivered! 2) When you are on a road trip with friends, stop in a row of fast food places, and everyone heads for a different one! 3) When there's a pause in the music and you yell, "VANGUARD!"

bluecoats88 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I find when I am carrying a cup of hot tea or coffee that I automatically switch to a roll step so my upper body doesn't move at all and I won't spill the drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
