You know you spend too much time on AN when....

[NeoPediRN]

you read a funny paragraph out of a book and look for the "kudos" button!

I was just reading Trauma Junkie and laughed out loud at a passage. For a split second I looked beneath it for the kudos button and realized I might be spending a little too much time on here lately!

Heehee you asked for it

[chicookie, BSN, RN]

when after a situation you think to yourself: this would be a great thread on AN.

I'm sitting here in my bathrobe reading AN, I leave for work in 15 minutes. Maybe I could use AN as a call in excuse!

You can tell who wrote a response simply by their style.

When you've been on for HOURS and then you realize you have 15 mintues to get ready for work--oh well, I took a bath the day before yesterday, LOL!!

[JeneraterRN]

When you can spot a troll in a nanosecond or a lay person asking for medical advice

[noahsmama]

When you've already read and responded to all of the threads but keep checking back to see if anything new has been posted in the last 5 minutes.

[tokmom, BSN, RN]

When something goes right or wrong at work, your first thought is to post it on AN.

#2...your smart phone has an AN bookmark.

when you're either sitting in your recliner or propped up in bed and are online, and suddenly begin to laugh so hard the cats get down and your husband just looks at you knowingly and asks, "which thread?" or "aren't you going to read it to me too?":d

I am so guilty of doing that

[Poi Dog]

You come home absolutely worn out from your shift, pop open a beer intending to read for a few minutes, and wind up spending hours on here.
