Your keyboard lasts you 3 years? ...You haven't actually talked to a colleague face to face, but know his portfolio by heart.

You don't earn a living from the web, yet you spend more time on it than you do your real job that you do earn a living from.

When it's the late hours of your 37th birthday, and you're in here typing a post to this damn hilarious thread on the fourms!And!! You've spent your entire birthday editing this month's newsletter for your site! BTW, remember that desk chair I was commenting about earlier in this thread?? The one that's so worn out that you hit the bolts??? OUTTA HERE!!!! I finally got a birthday present worthy of a webmaster! A new desk chair with all the trimmings!!  I never realized how soft a desk chair could be!!! My Touchy is in webmaster heaven!!! I was begining to think I was going to have to double my intake of Doritos and Pop Tarts to grow me a Fat Butt to add some cushion to my seat! -Garrett

You know you're a webmaster if... 1. you know everyone's email address but have no clue what their snail mail address is. 2. you send a joke by email to your husband who is facing you 7ft. away but glued to his computer too! 3. you switch on your computer before you open the curtains & put the kettle on & let the dogs out. 4. you go out food shopping & worry if you're missing email. 5. supper burns because your email checker said you had new mail. 6. dinner time is whatever time of day or night you can bear to leave your computer for long enough to cook. 7. you keep boxes of dog biscuits beside your monitor so that you can persuade the pooches to wait a little longer before.... well before whatever it is they want that will make you leave your computer!!

"...long enough to cook"? I thought all food was delivered by the pizza guy.

when...You are thinking of taking down that poster of Alan Rickman and putting up one of Danny Sullivan instead ...and you're looking for one of Craig Silverstein to go next to it.

HuH? Who???Noooo no no no no no nooooooo..... If you're a webmaster, then the only posters that you should be seeing, are the ones you get from the computer magazines, you know the ones... The one's that diagram the internet, or show a list of links, or the internals of a hd or something like that. Webmasters have no idol posters hanging around. If you look around my walls, you see network cables, clipboards, Calendars, phone numbers to support lines (technical and mental), headphones and earpeices and maybe a collection of Hot Wheels or Matchbox Cars on a hanging mini wall case. ;-) I use to hang print outs of the main pages of web sites that I designed..... Over 80 sites later, that got boring and annoying! Ohhhhh, forgot one other thing.... The printed menu's from the pizza place and other places that deliver food! Now if I could just get 7-11 to deliver my pop tarts, doritos and a case of Yoohoo's, then I'd be totally set!  Ok.... Now, what's the favorite meals of Webmasters!!?????? 1. Chilli Dogs w/cheese, bag of Doritos and a Yoohoo, with a side of either Beef Jerky, or Pepperoni Sticks. Meal made perfectly for a webmaster I say! And for Dessert, one of them Cinnamon Rolls from Little Debbi Snacks. Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. -Garrett

Reading this post, people are going to think we have no life. That might explain why the bf keeps telling me we need to LEAVE the house at least one day a week. The thought is very scary. I don't think I can last that long without email or forums.

it *may* be a plot Hope (no disrespect to bf intended ) be very very wary... before you go *outside* be sure you've thouroully thought it through... check your emails, forums and all related websites one last time... and taek a blackberry or other mobile online item, for security sake
