*All my friends are on my team, or on another team.

I'm starting to actually discover there are people outside of the FIRST bubble now ;) only took 5 years...

*I am tring to figure out how to get to other regionals.
(Silly parnets who think sleeping in my car or a tent isn't safe...)

Hahaha... that's how I got to VCU this year... I know the rest stops along I-81 quite well at this point...

*I refer to things, and people are confused because they forget that I just refer to FIRST.

Yep... accidentally done that on job interviews... on a regular basis...

*I spend 8+ hours a day in Tigerbolt chat activly chatting.

I created the Tigerbolt Chat last year ;)

*I read all the threads on Delphi.

Used to when things were smaller and I had a team that could use the info... now I just browse around for interesting things.

*I think I have visited most every teams webpage.

Been there done that!

*I have begun to look at things like "..oh, that would be an awsome field element for next year..."

You mean everyone doesn't do that?!?!

*I was helping my sister with her mousetrap car, and she asked if she could use ductape, and I reflexively said no.

Now Wetzel, that's just wrong.... Duct tape is definately something I use in large quantities outside of FIRST! You have to make up for not having it during the season.

*I get really upset and depressed when I miss a meeting. (Which happens far to often)

I used to get irritated at snow days that would cancel meetings (though not all of them did.... I remember my first Feb.. and the killer storm that left ice and snow... I still went to the shop!)

I wear my goggles places. When I go on a Home Depot run or to *get food.

Best time to wear them is in the snow or rain... stops stuff from getting in your eyes. I keep a pair in the truck for days when my tinted safety glasses are too dark for driving, but I still want to keep the windows down but the wind out of my eyes ;)

*Also, FIRST has turned my life in a compleatly diffrent direction.

Amen to that.


Ehh.. so yeah, if you don't know me by now, it's probably safer that way. :D Been adopted by lots of awesome teams - started off as a driver for team 69 my freshman year. Now... well, lets just say I hope things work out and ya'll be seeing a team in the 1000's from Knoxville, TN next season ;)
