... You burst out in song often

... You go around chanting "Eleka nahmen nahmen ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen" (and aren't afraid of being sent to a psych ward for it)

... You own every cast recording of several musicals

... Whenever you leave voicemails on someone's answering machine you sing "that was a very loud beep! I don't even know if this is working, [friend's name here], [name] are you there are you screening your calls it's [your name here]

those are only a few, but please, add more! you know you want to...

TheatreFreak05: Haha, I was wondering when someone would say that.

TheatreFreak05, I didn't want to type soundtrack, but I was too tired to think of anything else to type (I'm sick). So I'll change that right now...

Everytime you get off a plane you start to sing "I studied all the pictures in magazines and books. I memorized the subway map, too..."

When you wait all year for 9pm Christmas eve just so you can text all your friends "December 24th 9pm Eastern Standard Time. From here on in I shoot without a script, see if anything comes of it instead of my old s**t."

Omg, Haha CatsNY!

+ When you feel a need to tell the person who put "Live.Laugh.Love" on their Facebook where the phrase came from

+ When you think of Donna McKechnie singing about turkey in Promises, Promises every Christmas dinner

+You can name which Desperate Housewives episode came from each Sondheim show

+ Every time you're drunk you rant about the downfall of Bway to Jukebox and Disney musicals and lecture your fellow bar patrons about the musicals of Galt McDermot

+ You have impulses to sing Sweeney Todd while cleaning knives at work

+ During downtime at rehearsals you and your friends dance to "All That Jazz"

etc..

...You have the decency to NOT illegally record performances and post them on YouTube.

You can't look at anyone opening up a razor cell phone without thinking, "At last! My right arm is complete again!"
