When you meet an interesting person, and, instead of asking for their phone number, you try to establish an embassy in their capital... wherever that is.

When you make sure that all your business deals (apartment contract, car loan, video rentals, etc...) last exactly 20 years or until war is redeclared.

When you start seriously considering the prospects of a CivIV.

I am just talking about the cute girls who like me. They are acting too mousey now for long term relationships. But that is ok for the Lady when one is somewhat a reformed Tramp.

when you don't believe stories about the native Americans learning to breed horses because everyone knows that horses originated in Europe and Asia and that's the only place that they can reproduce.

you go buy all the spices from the supermarket shelves because of that little voice that says you need to acquire more luxuries.

you introduce a plan for an aqueduct at the town meeting stating it is necessary for the city to grow beyond size 6. As a result, all the construction materials for the local shopping center are converted to build an aqueduct with ceiling tiles and automatic doors.

you wonder if you should get some diamonds so your girlfriend will have a We Love the King Day and thus put out more.

When you've called in sick to work at least once because you're still playing when the alarm clock goes off.

When you fixate on each coming weekend as an opportunity for a 48-hour Civ III marathon.

When you unplug the phone so no one interrupts your 48-hour Civ III marathon.

When you've seriously considered using (or have used) empty quart bottles of beer to pee in so you don't have to get up and use the bathroom.

When you start eating ice cream out of the container sitting at the computer instead of preparing dinner because it saves time so you can play more Civ.

When you choose Civ over sex !!
