If your phone has more pictures of pedals than of your children.......

Haha. My phone has pictures of my builds and my dogs and that's it. I'm a bad father/husband.

No kidding, I at least have guitars too.... :o
Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.

Yep, worst part is I spend a lot of time looking at them too rarely at the pics of my kiddos :P

I've got another one.  If you know the time the mailman comes on Saturday and you get worried when he's late......

Sooo true. At my old place, I practically knew the UPS guy, he got excited every time I got a new guitar.

If the guys at mouser, Tayda and small bear send an email to check on you when you take time off of pedal building to build a guitar.

... if you see a particularly featureful small 'analog' commercial pedal, and would like to see the guts, and how the 'builder' put all that in there.

If your response to basically every non-digital guitar pedal is, "Eh, that's max $30 in parts." Oh, and if you have a bunch of utility circuits (hFE checkers, JFET matchers, etc.) that exist only to help you build other circuits.

If you are worried that your better half might sign up to the forum with her own profile only to go through all your build reports to find out how badly things are out of control really.

And then starts to make snarky comments on your posts in front of everyone...

If you finally give up waiting for Tayda to post a new coupon to their facebook and just order the damn cart.....
