Yesterday, my internet cable was down for hours! The horror! Thought I was going to go insane! It made me realize that I have a serious addiction not just to blogs, and all their bloggy yumminess, but the the internet as a whole.
1.) When asked to your address, your answer begins with http://
2.) You chat with your fingers, not your mouth.
3.) You know the difference between Java and Javascript.
4.) Most of your friends have an @ in their names.
5.) In order to watch CNN you move to www.cnn.com
6.) On your business card the e-mail appears before the phone number.
7.) You find yourself typing “com” after every period when using a word processor.com
8.) You check your mail. It says “no new messages.” So you check it again.
9.) You can think of nineteen keystroke symbols that are far more clever than :-).
10.) You are told about a new program, and you are disappointed to find that it is a TV program.

2.) Traveling. When we were stationed in Germany I did plenty of weekend trips!
3.) The commissary. This is our grocery store, everything at cost, plus a 5% charge to cover salary and the store expenses. I seriously save a butt load of money here!
4.) The movie theater- it may not be the new stadium seating with all the bells and whistles, but I feel safe dropping my 13 yo off with friends for a few hours. Plus- you won’t go broke buying popcorn.
5.) Base Pool. For $50 I can buy a pass for the entire family for the whole summer. Our base has two pools, so we actually have a choice and don’t have to worry to much about it being crowded.
6.) The support system. Seriously we have a great support system among us wives.
7.) The 10% discount at Dairy Queen, as well as other stores. It is nice to live in a supportive town!
8.) The Class VI. Liquor store. Do I really need to say anything else?
9.) The Dry Cleaner. Usually a little less expensive than off-base.
10.) The parks and playgrounds. For the most part we have always been within walking distance of a really nice playground, or two!
11.) Housing Maintenance. Got a problem? Call them! Maybe not the speediest people, but it’s nice not to have to snake your own toilets!
12.) Not having an electric bill, at least as long as you live on base- which we do.
13.) The uniform. Enough said!
