YKYFTMW you have this conversation at an Italian restaurant after a tournament:
remistress: Man, I LOVE food!
me: Yeah, me too! We must fence more to keep up with our food habit!
remistress: Hahaha! You should totally put that on fencing.net!

YKYFTM...when while river rafting you unconciously wipe your feet on your legs, and your *friends* make fun of you about it for the rest of the day, because they too are fencers and know you do this because of the perpetually dirty floors at club.
YKYFTM...when given the above scenario said *friends* immediately respond that it needs to be posted on f.net.

| YKYFTMW you don't know what to do with yourself now that the competitive season is over and your weekends are free.

change purse:
two quarters
two dimes
a penny
keychain library card
two broken, greasy zip tips that your coach gave you to exchange at SN
and the card part of your wallet is in this order:
learners permit in the window slot
first slot: usfa card, brother's usfa card, ID
second slot: debit card with sticky note shopping list attached (5 german wires, 3 bags french springs, new glove)
third slot: emergency credit card
the billfold part of your wallet contains some cash and an extra copy of your confirmation letter, just in case you lose the entry envelope.
Gosh, I'm a nerd.  | |

| When only bruised bodies excite you (including your own)--you know you fence too much!

| YKYFTMW...
These all happen to me
*Your teachers at school ask whether you want to visit the school councellor and when you say no thanks but why? They reply in a whisper pointing to your arms 'Are you having problems at home? or you know... your drugs problem' The funny thing was my mum did give me some of those bruises in a bout so I could quite easily claim abuse.
*you walk down the road having a pretend bout in your head and then suddenlt launsh this marching attack complete with beats and lunge and scare the heck of a little old lady walking towards you.
*Buying trousers are a nightmare- Ones that fit around the waist wont fit around the calfs and ones that fit around the calfs wont fit around the hips and you have to walk around with your pants half way down your bum.

| You know you and your lover fence too much when:
You talk dirty to each other and most of what you say are fencing references.

| As for those bruises...Aww..you know...you peel off the t-shirt at the end of the night and assess--I remember THAT one... not as bad as I thought... and the double-touch, I'm sure I gave better than I got...
And the colors they turn day-by-day, the new ones as the old are disappearing...kind of like relationships. OMG--I...think...I...fence TOO MUCH!
Sorry, Cookeit, gotta run...footwork class starts in less than an hour...

You edit your life around fencing, instead of the other way around.

You tell your friends and/or family you can't visit them this year because there isn't a tournament in their city.

| You know you fence too much, when you decide to drive three and a half hours every weekend to go to a better fencing club since your current club no longer has any competitive sabrists.

you hear random clanking from the dorm hallway, and try to figure out what weapon it is by ear.
(it turned out not to be fencing related at all.)
