    Well, I just started a new job. I'm sure the novelty will wear off soon, especially since fencing is pretty much all I talk about.

    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!

    I wasn't notified about that being a tape recorded conversation...what else is on that tape?! ;P

    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.

    You know you fence too much when on the "Fencing of sex" thread, you vote for fencing.
    If you don't stand behind our troops, please feel free to stand in front of them. Trust me, they'll appreciate it.

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

    you beat your entire gym class at badminton (even the jocks) because all the badminton moves are parries. and of course, you stand en garde and lunge/fleche to hit the birdie

    YKYFTMW your friend gets out the fly swatter, nails that fly that's been bugging you all during dinner and you reply, "Beat-attack from the left; touche. 1-0"

    YKYFTMW your wallet contains the following items:

    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.

    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.
    "The pen may be mightier than the sword - except for in a duel."
    "I had to get up in the morning at 10 o'clock at night 1/2 an hour before i had to go to bed, drink a cup of sulfuric acid, work 29 hours a day down down mill unpaid and have to pay for permission to come to work and when we came home our dad and our mum would kill us and dance around on our grave singing hallelujah!"

    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 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.
    If you don't stand behind our troops, please feel free to stand in front of them. Trust me, they'll appreciate it.

    YKYFTMW:
    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.)
