When you get bug bites during the school year and it just makes you miss camp more. When you figure that if you are getting bug bites you should at least be able to be at camp when you get them!

When as you pack your bag more space is devoted to kids books and games (and swimming equipment) than clothes!

when you've been packed for weeks and keep finding more stuff at target/walmart/cvs to add to the rubbermaids!
And when your idea of packing is putting things in rubbermaids and rolling drawer thingers

When you go into the dollar store to buy something for the church nursery and leave without what you came for, but $10 worth of stuff for camp!
When you get the email inviting you to the camp staff facebook group and go immediately to join it and then read all the posts that are there and reply. During all of this you realize that the only other people in the group are the AD staff! Within another hour only 1 other person has joined and she is new. You have to resist the urge to immediately bombard her with introducing yourself and enthusiastically asking questions and talking about camp! Ok, so that was like 5 "You know you're.."s in 1!
When you incorporate camp into your children's book that you must write for German class because you have no idea what else you could possibly write about! Or would want to write about!

How have we let this thread get to page 5 or 6 of the threads?! Counselor Brain in a Box and Countdown '09 were posted on more recently than this thread!!!!! It's been like 10 months!! wow!
Ok, so I'm not just bumping this to bump it, but also because I've got another one!!
You know you're a camp nerd when you walk around your school campus and purposely walk under the trees where there are roots and dirt and needles and such so that you can look straight down and pretend for 10 seconds that you are at camp!
