You Know You're a Network Administrator
When...
 All
of your friends have an @ in the middle of their names.
Your
best friend is someone that you chat with online but have never met.
You
see a beautiful sunset and you expect to save it to your desktop.
You
are overcome with disbelief, anger and finally depressed when you encounter
a Web page with no links.
You
ask a plumber how much it would cost to replace the chair in front of your
computer with a commode.
You
feel driven to consult the "Cool Page of the Day" on your wedding
day.
You
are driving on a dark and rainy night when you hydroplane on a puddle,
sending your car careening toward a flimsy guard rail that separates you
from the precipice of a rocky cliff and certain death. You frantically
search for the "Back" button.
When every member in your family has an e-mail account on the mail server
where you work.
You find yourself typing "com" after every period when using a
word processor.com
When you shut down your router and get an awful sick feeling like someone
you love just died.
When you come home late at night from reconfiguring the servers and your
wife draped a blond wig over your monitor and tells you to marry this.
You refuse to speak to your parents until they get e-mail.
Your phone bill comes to your doorstep in a box.
You
laugh at people that have modems.
You
move into a new house and decide to Netscape before you landscape.
You
refer to going to the bathroom as downloading.
You
tell the cab driver you live at http://123.elm.street/house/bluetrim.html
Your spouse makes a new rule: "The computer cannot come to bed."
Not even the laptop.
You
start tilting your head sideways to smile. :^)
You
turn on your computer, and turn off your spouse.
Your spouse says communication is important in a marriage...so you install
Instant Messenger on her computer. And when she leaves you, you're :-(
You
begin to wonder how on earth your service provider is allowed to call 200
hours per month "unlimited."
And finally,
You know you're a Network Administrator if you've sent this page to your
yahoo account.
