.......when you go out and buy a new VCR specifically to tape the first season finale when it originally aired. Which I did.

...when someone pulls out in front of you, and instead of saying "asshole!", you say "cocksucking hooplehead!!"

[Poppaea]

... when you buy a membership to the Museum of Television and Radio so you can buy your tickets early to the Deadwood presentation (Milch, McShane, Olyphant, etc!) at the William S. Paley Festival in March, wake up early on Saturday morning to order online, and then discover that your membership number does not work at all.

Fortunately, I managed to get through on the phone and nab tickets to the Deadwood presentation AND to Veronica Mars, which I suspect weren't nearly as popular as tickets to the Lost and Desperate Housewives presentations. Wheee!

[tobey]

Poppaea, I. Am. So. Jealous. You let us know how that goes, hear?

[humblepie]

Lucky, Poppaea!! I'd also love to hear all about it.

...when you set up your DVR to record an episode of Carnivale that you've already seen and don't plan on rewatching just so you can check if they play the new Deadwood promo before the episode airs.

Luckily they did so I finally saw it!

When you send an e-mail to a few of your friends . . . . accidentally sending it twice . . . . and then send another e-mail stating simply, "I apologize. I apologize." And then getting upset when only one of your friends e-mails you back telling you to shut the fuck up. (They're my friends, they should KNOW these things, shouldn't they?)

...when you work in an elementary school and (with increasing frequency) mentally refer to the kids as "those little fucknuts." Luckily you haven't blurted it out loud... yet.

... when you're watching Carnivale and you start picturing cage matches between characters on the two shows and assuming every Deadwood character would win. (Bullock vs. Hawkins, Garrett vs. Sofie, Wild Bill vs. Evil Preacher, you get the idea.)

[mickeyjace]

I knew I was obsessed when I started calling my kids "squareheads" in honor of Sofia. Also, muttering cocksucker under my breath in traffic! I'd never uttered that word before and now I'm on the freeway screaming---fucking cocksucker! And of course I now think of CJ's line anytime someone says, "be well".

Poppaea, you are one lucky Hooplehead! Please report back!

I will absolutely give a full report of the Deadwood presentation. It's either on the 13th or the 17th of March.

My husband is reluctant to go, because he believes that looking "behind the curtain" damages his enjoyment of a show. I have to admit, I've never been able to look at Spike on "Buffy" the same way since I learned that James Marsters is a) older than me, and b) from Modesto, California. Or is it Mr. Sark who is from Modesto? I always forget.

Anyway, I hope that seeing the writers and actors in person will only make me love the show more.

[laivine]

I knew when I haven't seen the actual show in several months, but the DVD commercial came on and I literally got up and started dancing and thinking about dressing up as Trixie for Halloween.

Yeah. This show's got me bad.

[Goalie31]

You know it's got you bad when you cancel cock sucking HBO after the first season ended...anticipating a long wait till the next season starts. I'm still waiting...

[OldStyleNo10]

OK, so I bought the DVD of last season, and I do not own a DVD player.

But I will. Someday I will.

[WobblyHeadedBob]

You know you've got it bad when you visit this site almost 5 times a day to see if anyone else has said anything of interest

...when you're too sick to cook dinner, and decide that canned peaches are exactly nutritious enough.

...when you've watched the Cutdown Season 2 Trailer about 8 times. Dude, it is all about the closing line ("Next one is to your head. Do not doubt me.") and Al's steady, cold gaze. Damn, that man gives me chills. One more huzzah for his Emmy!

[hcwoodward]

... when you're moved to make this.

[huggybuff]

...when you refer to cleaning out your cat's litterbox as 'prospecting for nuggets.'

[ChipBach]

I do...

...call my kids "Hoopleheads"
...use "fucknuts" at every appropriate chance.
...every time my boss says who? I immediately reply "Wu".

I'll never forget a few months back a fairly straightlaced female friend/coworker of mine finished dealing with a particularly difficult customer, and muttered under her breath (after he left) "cocksucker". She immediately looked up at me and said "...sorry, I watched Deadwood last night". We became better friends...

...you start watching the show for the first time on In Demand and have to limit yourself to 2 to 3 episodes a day and are fretting over the fact that 2 episodes seem to be missing from the available shows.

...you get in your car and say to yourself "where the fuck are my gloves."

[Silver Angel's Mom]

I went to visit my sister in Dallas this weekend. She made me sit down and watch her DVD's of the first season of Deadwood. Because of this, the Word-Of-The-Day is.....

Cocksucker!

I'm going out tonight and buy the 1st season for myself. We don't get HBO, so this is going to be a difficult obsession.

[huggybuff]

...when you have a dream that you're a cast member on the show and share a dressing room with Kim Dickens.

[Lucygirl2]

...when you go & buy 12 cans of peaches so you have enough for each new episode

&

...when you are perusing the hubby's new Maxim (I truly read the articles, unlike Mr. Lucy) & are so fucken giddy to see a Q&A with Ian McShane in there!!

1 more week, cocksuckers!!

[tobey]

.....You name your 'dogwood' tree 'Swe'gin!'. "Honey, I think we need to water Swe'gin!" "Swe'gin! is looking a little peaked today......."

[Aunt Nic]

I've got two:

You change your cross-country vacation plans specifically to include Deadwood. Then break out into giggles when the breakfast buffet has a big bowl of canned peaches.

It takes all your strength of will not to tell difficult customers they have a face like a cunt.
