You might be Sprite driver if someone at work needs a 1/2" wrench and you instinctively reach for your front pants pocket.

.if you've lied to your spouse about the funny smell in the oven or dishwsher.

.if everyone at work can tell your parking space when you're gone.

..if you instinctively look into backyards and driveways when you walk the dog.

..if you've convinced your spouse that "Vizards" IS a coffee table book.

..when acne-boy at the local NAPA cringes when you drive up.

..when your daughter catches you attempting to double-clutch her Camry.

guilty of all the above..

Your inventory of "spares" includes at least one donor car!

You wish you had a dime for every time you have heard " I used to have one of those!", "That is SO CUTE!!!" or "Where's the wind-up key?"
 
You wish you had a dime for every time someone said "you can put a V8 in that thing, right?"


ugh!
 
You have your UPS driver calling you before he arrives with your parts saying IS THE NEST EMPTY?
