when the calluses on your palms are thicker than those on your finger tips.

When you have to TR an easy 10!

Oh wait! That's when I'm climbing regularly!

When you don't need 2 alieve to get out of bed in the morning.

When your toenails only fall off every 4-5 months, instead to 1-2.

When, for the first time in 9 years, you are with family for t-giving and xmas in the same year.

When any one route on your grudge list is worth more points then all your recent *sends* combined.

when you are so desperate to climb on real rock that you go out in 30 mph winds and slip all over ice and snow to get to the boulders only to have your crashpad hurtle uncontrollably into the Madison river.

Sorry, Dana, I had to giggle at the visual!

...you find your rope under a stack of rugs and realize it's been there since last year...

The elastic on your sport bras make noise when you put them on from breaking (cristalizing)...

That happened with my bike shorts. It was a sad moment. Especially since I could barely get them over my ass.
