-You get a new haircut, and have been recieving compliments on it, so you stare at your mirror for about a minute and say "I'm... pretty. I'm a pretty girl, Momma!"
-Your FRIENDS know the words to showtunes, who's been nominated for the Tonys, what theatres shows are currently playing in...
-You squeal with delight whenever The Nanny, Family Guy, or any other show you watch makes reference to Broadway.
-Your teacher inadvertantly references a show, so you look over to the only friend in your class who gets it and start giggling like mad.
-You've demonstrated an abnormal amount of knowledge of presidential assassins for someone your age. Also the number of minutes in a year, Eva Peron, Georges Seurat...

"you go to broadway.com and watch the videos under broadway buzz... and sometimes you watch the same video several times"
Thank god I'm not the only person that does that! I've watched that Broadway Bares video an embarassing number of times...and then sent the link to my little sister.
-You squeal when you reconize a Broadway actor on Law & Order (Mothership, SVU, CI, TbJ), then have to try and explain to your theater-deficient roommate who it is and go on and on about how much you love said-actor (meanwhile said-actor is being molested by his piano teacher)
-The same scenario described above has happened during commercials, while reading the paper, etc.
-Most of what you know about AIDS came from Rent (sad, I know), and it has helped you pass tests in health class

- you have stolen multiple pieces of clothing from a costume closet and wear them constantly.
- you refuse to pay $10 to go to the movie theatre (because you know you can just wait till it comes to video) but you gladly drop $100 to see a broadway show in the front row.
