You know you play way too much when...

...you have a bumper sticker that says "My other car is a Sloth"

or it says "I brake for reagents"

...you build a treehouse in the backyard and try to enter it to go to Egypt

...on your 16th birthday you go to your homeroom teacher to learn a new spell

...your friend is sick and you bring over two Pixie treasure cards and say "take these and call me in the morning"

...when you are about to get in a fight with someone you quickly change your clothes and put on a necklace

Yes. You have uncovered my life story. I got my friends to play and now they do it too. You cannot resist humming that, I am sure every single player does.

Every time I hear the ravens caw, I am always reminded by the Field Guards in the Haunted Cave. The sound is so alike that hearing the ravens give me a strong urge to log in to Wizard101 and fight Field Guards.

Here's a few:

Quitting your job to play

Being a subscriber and buying $80 worth of crowns every time you buy crowns

Insist to be called the name of your wizard

Have millions of accounts filled with grandmasters

Imagining casting a spell and damaging someone's health when they tick you off (I know I've done that)

Making your own wizard101 commercials

Sending repeated invites to your friend and family for the crowns

Buying every single crown item there is all over the spiral

Trying to create a hallusionation in your mind of merle ambrose giving you a quest

Pressing the enter button and looking confused when a chat box doesn't come up

Screaming "I NEED HELP FIGHTING MALISTARE" in a busy street

Dressing up in wizard clothes

and last but not least: Trying to find a troll and when you don't saying "HERE TROLLY TROLLY TROLLY!"
That last one made my day. XD

3) You have a dream about being sultan of your sultans palace and it connects to history you are learning about at school
4) You have another dream about Cyrus being in this weird room of your sultans palace from the other dream
5) You explain all of wizard101 to your friend who doesn't play and you look at their face and they are so confused
6) You convince a friend at school to play and they get addicted, but not as much as you
7) You walk carefully down the street on the sidewalks
8) You find yourself drawing your school symbol
9) You respond to your wizard name and your real name
10) You see some old guy with a long beard and think "ambrose!"
11) Your watching some show your dad watches and there is this sneaky guy who keeps getting away, and you go "Wow he is like meowiarty!!!!" and your dad goes "huh?"
12) You wanna be your wizard for one night and do all the quests and no one has to know
13) You consider slightly for one little moment changing your first name to your wizards first name
14) You learn about acient Egypt at school and all you think about is KT
15) You hear "one hundred and one" and you go
16) You study/do homework while playing wizard101
17) Before school everyday, you check and tend on your garden
18) You hear the word "boss" and think oooo which?
19) A wizard101 commercial comes on and by the time it's over, you are logged on and questing
20) You consider a collection of regents
21) Last but not least.......Your friend is talking about getting new cloths and you say "what stats?"

The sad part about this post is, it has all happened to me, no jokeXD

You see a kid wearing a Minnesota Vikings jacket and think "storm"

There's a pickle jar in the fridge with little embossed knobs around the top of the lid. When you reach in for a pickle, you think "hm full pips...should really cast something"

You are scrubbing the bathroom tiles and rinsing off the scouring powder with a foam cup of water. Each time you do, it reminds you of the times you had to spam a second or even third tempest to clear survivors of the first hit.

You have wizard101 running in the background while you work on other stuff so you can listen to the music

When you go to the beach IRL, you leave behind all the shells and driftwood and head straight for the clumps of kelp.

when you go skiing in the winter, you apply Stun block to your face and hands

And honestly i am guilty of each and every one
