Haha I know this feeling my parents bought a 3 story house that backs onto a hill and the day they moved in i went straight under the house good fun.

... you walk into an old limestone and timber lodge at a state park and think, nice, it smells like a cave in here...

You're a college student who can't get work done because you're looking up caves on the internet and daydreaming about giant passages.

You post to cavechat at 0340

Your bosses bosses boss stops you in the hall and asks if you have seen "that new caving movie"

Hopes there is a revolution in Mexico so expeditions will stop getting cancelled...

Your clothes are so dirty the lint filter on the dryer has more cave dirt than lint in it

you got back from caving in Kentucky a week ago but still have the dirty gear bag open in your living room because it has made your apartment smell like cave and you love it and don't want to wash the yummy smell away.

Your friends know that you will have various digging implements in the back of your truck

watch How To Train Your Dragon with your son and keep checking out all the karst features in the background.

...you constantly have dreams about caving.

...the thing you worried about first when you blacked out at capoeira and then across the next few days was "oh no...what if this means I can't go caving next weekend?" and then wanted to cry when you realized you really shouldn't because there would be vertical even and although you are sure it's nothing you know you should be safe and wait for the test results.

...you start cave diving.
