You know you're obsessed with Tamora Pierce when...

[Knightly_Lady]

Hello everyone! I saw one of these on another forum, and decided to put one here to see what we come up with. They're pretty fun, and interesting to read. Anyways, knock youselves out! xd

1. If you're in pain, you tell yourself to suck it up because Alanna and Kel could take it, and that means you have to too if you ever want to be a knight...

2. You stare at your dog for hours trying to find out if that yip was a sign of communication.

3. You get frustrated when your dog won't talk back to you.

4. You have given yourself a headache trying to get the gift to appear in your palm.

Guilty of the first one...

I saw the other one too. i liekthat you out one on here. It'll be fun to see if Gaia peops come up with the same things. . .
5. you survived pe for the last two years solely because of thoughts of Allana ad Kel, and what they would think if they knew you couldn't even run the mile in ten minutes.
6. You won't let your mom get rid of the popeye knight in shining armor doll because it reminds you of Raoul, John, Dom, etc.
7. You have been known to mutter mithros under your breath when agitated or suprised
8. You met one of your best friends when you saw that she was reading Squire and couldn't help but ask her if she had read the other books. (*cough* Knightly_lady *cough*

Ok that's enough for now. I think of more later. . .

[Knightly_Lady]

24. You own every one of Tammy's books, but you plan on getting them again in hardback to preserve them forever and lessen any damage they might get on the numerous trips you take them on.

I'm going to change the titile to "You know you're obsessed with Tamora Pierce when..." so that we can include Emelan and such. I would also change the poll, but too many people have already voted.
