... your idea of entertainment is a tide change.
... you begin to notice that every trip involved with transporting anything to and from the shore always seems to coincide with extreme low tides!
... you come back from the store and you can't find a dock cart!
...you tell your friends that you liveaboard because you don't have to mow kelp.
... you find a sea otter lounging in your cockpit when you come home from
work...(or evidence of one)
... you realize you really live inside a transformer toy and you can't just go
sailing for the afternoon because the disassembly/assembly/and re-assembly process is just too much work.
... you do go sailing for the afternoon and you notice that when you back out the power cable is still hooked to the dock (I've never done that of course
)
...that your seagulls all have names
...you lay in bed when the wind is up and debate for an hour whether to cut your neighbors halyards
