I was simming with my best-friends Laurie & Karen; Laurie started falling asleep while on the phone simming with us, which is what got Karen & I talking about and laughing about our sims addiction. I'm sharing what KAREN & I came up with; plus she doesn't have a mini-site yet.

YOU KNOW YOU'RE ADDICTED TO SIMS WHEN:
#1)You fall asleep at your computer playing sims.
#2)You see buildings in REAL life and think to yourself "hey I can make that!".
#3)You went out and bought a baby name book....not cuz you were expecting......you needed it to name your sims. ;)
#4)You talk about your sims as if they're "real" people.
#5) You like the sims' furnishings better than your own.
#6) If you've ever wished "if only I could motherlode my bills away".
#7) You talk for hrs on the phone and the whole topic of conversation is the sims.
#8) You construct houses for the sims while you dream.
#9) You wonder why your "real life" pets can't go to work and bring home a paycheck.
#10) You wish your pets were as easily trainable as sim pets.
#11) You say "my energy bar is in the orange or red" vs. "I'm tired".
