LOL, awesome thread idea,

...when you start using and understaning orchid species names, and can actually say them right

... when you watch tv shows and look out for orchids in the background

...when you dream about how you can win the next orchid show, or how you can improve your growing area

orchids is the symbol widely used nowadays, shirts, curtain cloth, vintage prints. This shows a few facts that human passion towards beautiful flowers, colorful nature never die off and we see more and more orchids nowadays in our daily products and items : )

... when your hubby has been so flooded by your talk of orchids that HE suddenly says while watching TV "Oh you've got me at it now, is that an orchid!"

What is more it was not an easy one to spot, it was a Masdi which was being used to represent a mythical flower and was only shown very briefly from a side angle. It was only later in the program when the whole plant was shown that I was able to confirm he was right.

Yeah, just agreed with Hubby (who is also working late for the same company) that we're going home at 9pm.

We try not to do this too often, but just now it's needed. One of the perils of working for a small company where there are not enough people for all the work.

when you start kicking yourself because you remember how you told your parents you wouldn't need Latin 1 & 2 in high school and now you are considering a Rosetta Stone purchase........ you may be orchid obsessed.

- when you have next year's orchid shows marked in your calendar and ask for those days off at work with 2 months in advance

- when you plan your order around your next paycheck

- when you dream of building a couple of greenhouses with multiple growing zones based on the orchid's needs.

Yeah that's me.... dreaming and wishing I would win the lotto....LOL
