You Know That You Are Addicted to Cruising - Carnival Edition

[cruisin_cutie216]

a Carnival souvenir bag or glass at the Thrift Shop triggers excitement and not only do you buy them both but inquire on if there's more

[mamawsnest]

Love these! They mostly fit so I must be addicted!:D

[Pine Bluff]

You own a red bag and it's never been used.

[ladylikes2cruise]

...you open your eyes in the morning and the first thing you do is reach for your iPad to check for price drops on your next 2 upcoming cruises!!

 

also guilty:p

[Bookbug53]

Ditto to all!!

 

Oh, and the license plate on your car is "CRUISES". :p

[AngAndBoys]

I like him.. I just said it because the first poster mentioned him several times.

 

So much for my cute reply being humorous. I guess my humor is too dry for some to get.

 

I got it. :D

[skyeman27]

All of the above posts (Well, most of them)

[gregg204]

Not a chance ,I would never, ever tell anyone I was a member of Cruise Critic .

 

I don't mind telling them. I figure 99% of people that cruise never even heard of cruise critic. Although you'd think by some post, some people think that 100% of cruisers use this site.:D

Also, Sargent Shultz (and Saints) fan here too.

I watch a local news broadcast that frequently has the Long Beach port in the background. I don't care about the news, I just want a glimpse of one of the ships!

[BenjiRodney]

You get excited when you see the Facebook update that such and such ship is moving out and you run to the webcam site to watch it sail away for the 3,214 time.

You're keeping track of the exact number of times you've done this? If true...I'd say you qualify for one of the Most Addicted. :):):):)

I got it! And I liked it!

- every morning's shower is compared to the shower on board where the shower curtain attacks you but you wonder where you can get those cool, wall-mounted awesome-smelling soap and shampoo dispensers

- desktop pics on all computers are from cruises

- you have coworkers texting you, "I'm going on a cruise and found this site called Cruise Critic and, holy crap, found one of your reviews!"

[gapearl]

You want to try "extreme couponing" to save more money for cruises.:eek:

 

GUILTY! I've been extreme couponing seriously for over a year. It got so bad I had to buy a deep freezer! :eek: I don't buy unnecessary things like 500 bottles of mustard, but I stock up on juice, pasta, frozen vegetables, soup, etc when they're on sale. I can tell you first hand you will save A LOT of money doing this. Give it a try! ;)

 

another one:

 

... when people know they can start a conversation with you with, "So when's your next cruise?"

 

People do this to me ALL the time! And I have a countdown clock app on my phone to let them know exactly how many days! :D

[crusinpsychRN]

You have your member number memorized.

The crew knows you by name.

The lady who checks you in at VIP knows your name.

You watch Favorite Cruises over and over.

I thought start a “you know that you are addicted to cruising” carnival edition. If you are game please add to the list!

…you go find the MDR menu online and plan our your meals so you will know what to order

…you think about cruising all the time

…you wish that you were cruising right now

…you get excited when you hear the words “lido deck”

…you know the cruise directors and are friends with the on facebook

…your PVP’s number is plugged into your mobile phone

…your PVP has your number programmed into their personal mobile phone

...people tell you that you are addicted to cruising

…when Carnival has had it’s PR issues you were just wondering how much prices would drop on your Early Saver booked cruises

…you miss the future cruise certificates

 

 

AMEN, Bother!!!!!!! LOL :D:D:D

[samzgirl84]

I have really enjoyed reading these and realizing that I am guilty on most of these.

 

Here's another one: you go out for dinner and remark to your DH that the lasagna isn't as good as the lasagna you had on your cruise.

[poptart]

most of the above PLUS

 

you think PaulMedic's boys are your grandchildren you've been watching them grow up on cruise reviews for so many years :D:D

[TabFox]

...or when you know more about members on here and their families and types of rooms they prefer, excursions, etc.....better than the people we work with everyday!

[BenjiRodney]

Or one of your walls at work looks like this.

[bandnurse]

You look forward to a week of hearing the room stewards call you DH "Mr. Boobie" as that's how several have pronounced Bobby :)

[Vegasgreg19]

How about you get so used to dinning in the MDR that when you get home and go out to eat, after you are done you just get up and walk out of the restaurant without paying! :eek:

[Velvetwater]

You favourite programs and films involve cruises and large ships and you even watch the titanic film (up to a certain part of course)

 

You watch too much youtube cruise things

[qruser4life]

When your cubicle looks like this...

When you are known at your office as the "cruise guy"...

When people stop talking to you about vacations because your story is better...

When you genuinely just want people to experience the same thing but they

think you are bragging...

When you never call in because you save every vacation day for cruises...

When you plan your entire year around cruising plans...
