When people in the neighborhood stop to take photographs of your wood piles.

When the neighbors start inviting you to their house because your house "is like a sauna"

when YOU threaten the propane company to get them to take their 500 gallon tank back! (by threaten I mean tell them if they don't come get it you're hooking it to your truck and hauling it out to the road for them-this works well, btw-very motivational for them apparently)

I'm about ready to make "the call" to the ------s for a fill up. But, since I didn't pay for the priviledge of the non-plan plan, I'm sure their going to want to charge me some crazy fee for the priviledge of paying them for propane. If I can just convince them to give me one more fill up, I should be good for three years or so.

...When you call the propane company a bunch of _______s.

...When you're able to consider how many years a tank of propane will last.

...When you spill a fine porter on the stove and you're more upset than your wife (and not just about the wasted porter).

When you say that you have "morning wood".........and you just mean that you have some firewood that you have to attend to in the morning.

When you drive through a neighborhood and have to look at the chimneys to spot the ones with liners.
