... when you think "gee, I'd like a job like that - wonder how much it would cost to commute - no, it'd take me away from h2g2 for too long" - and then you remember that you are supposed to be out looking for a job anyway

Enough? I wish I was on vacation, and that the rain was pouring down outside, so that I'd have a perfectly good excuse to spend time at h2g2 all day and all night long - that's just the way it was when I joined - and that's just how I got addicted...

...when you discover almost everyone at your office has bookmarked h2g2 on their terminal. They haven't registered, they just lurk, because they know I'm posting there, and they are following my adventures. They already think I'm crazy and they're looking for proof. *smiles, waves at co-workers*

Crazy? Aren't we all? What you should really be worrying about are the people that think they're 'sane'...
