You know you are a die hard windsurfer when..

Let me count the ways...
1. Before you get out of bed in the morning you are listening for the sound of the wind.
2. First thing you do when you get up is look out the window to see how much the trees are moving.
3. Instead of reading the newspaper while you eat your breakfast you read the Seabreeze forecast, the Seabreeze forums and the GPSTC blogs.
4. You have 6 weather sites on your favourites list.
5. You can tell when the sea breeze is in without even thinking about it because of the subtle change in sound of the wind and the smell of the air
6. You consult the 7 day forecast before committing to social engagements.
7. You let your furniture fall apart and your wardrobe get outdated because you'd rather spend your money on windsurfing gear.
8. When most people are snuggling up in front of a warm fire you're getting ready to go for a sail.
9. You have so much cold weather gear it takes longer to dress up in it than to rig, but hey, it might not be windy again for a week.
10. You don't stop sailing until you're totally exhausted/ run out of wind/ run out of daylight.
11. You've had to build a windsurfing shed so your husband can get into the other one.
12. You don't have a full time job because it would interfere with windsurfing too much.
13. You're not embarrassed to admit to these things...

You can tick all the boxes above; then you have a nightmare of you breaking your acl knee ligament having a blast in Maui; being told you can't sail for 9 mnths after the OP and rehab; then realise it's not a dream but real:( Insanity!!!!!!!!!!!!
