When all the neighbors in your area hold garage sales and put all the fur and feathers in boxes and label them sold to Paul and refuse any offers on the stuff. This actually is a yearly event in the private subdivision I live in every Memorial day weekend

When security at the dollar tree starts following you because you've been in there so long combing the shelves for cheap stuff to tie with.

 

That's a good one. Like anyone would steal from a Dollar Tree! Ouch, my side hurts. But I've been there that long, searching each and every shelf. I don't think security is following to keep you from pocketing something, they think you're a stalker after one of the employees and you're just roaming the aisles waiting for the store to close.

 

Ha ha ha

You know you tie too much when you think there's actually a website dedicated to fly tying. Actually, this is just a figment of your imaginative and fevered mind.

This is more fly fishing than fly tying, but it's in the same vein.

I was just eating dinner at a restaurant and I noticed something. In noticing, I remembered why Wife is always rolling her eyes at me. What I noticed is this.

I used to be able to look at beautiful works of art, watch shows on TV or a movie ... or any of a hundred visual inputs, and admire the skill or overall beauty of such things. Now, I usually just key in on what ever water feature is present. I see places to fish everywhere I look. Wife knows I am no longer seeing whole pictures ... just bodies of water. She just knows, and there go the eyes again.
