you know you're an addict when...

...you plan your week around the farmer's market so you can scoop up some Blue Bottle Coffee.

Last time I trekked to the Tuesday Farmer's Market I was a novice, had no idea where to park to most effectively access my BBC stand, and it was not much fun (although the kids were well behaved, imagine that). If I go tomorrow, I will know exactly where to park and be in-and-out in a flash. YES!

just once...

My husband left for work and left some track and field events playing on tv. As I watched the end of a "long" race (over 8 minutes) I saw the last competitor, running hard, come over the finish line. She was quite a ways back from the first place finisher. So far back, in fact, that I thought "gee, how embarrassing!" and I wasn't even running.

Just once, I'd like all those billions of news cameras to focus on and interview the last place finisher. Now that would be some good reality tv.
