You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

[Duncan Macdonald]

... you add metal supermarkets to your cell phone contacts.

...every other word out of your mouth has something to do with FIRST...no matter what the conversation was about

[Cow Bell Solo]

When in your CIS History class your teacher says the year '1816' dealing with what he is teaching and you got so excited that you bursted out "The Green Machine". The teacher paused for a second but continued on and some of the kids just shake their heads at me(them not being in robotics but knows me and robotics and knew what I meant).

... you car a team uniform in your car just incase you need to give a presentation to a company to get another sponsor for you team.

This one is more for the adults,

You plan your wedding for the holiday season because you know not as many team activities will be going on and then plan your honeymoon so you can be back in time for kick-off.

Who knew FIRST was such a good matchmaking organization

when you work on creating your pumkin design for halloween, and that design happens to be the FIRST Logo.

When you are trying to convince your doctor that if he is going to do surgery then he needs to do it NOW......you need to be fully recovered by Jan 3rd!!!

...When you have an entire section of your team's robotics manual devoted to learning the appropriate way to dance to the music played at the regionals, specifically Cotton Eye Joe. We don't have this in ours....yet!

When I do that, the post above, wrote in my planner a countdown to kickoff, remind everyone whether on the team or not how many days to kickoff, have a program in your calculator that always counts down until kickoff when you turn it on. And I could keep going, I've been waiting for kickoff since we got last years game, I'm already counting down to next years kickoff: 52 days 17 hours 0 minutes 55 seconds to kickoff111
