You know you are a gliderneck when you source a copy of possibly the oldest (& hardest to get) glider book in existence, buy it, then amazingly find another copy and buy that too just in case the first one gets lost in the mail!

Then pride yourself on quick thinking when the first one does get lost!!

You are a gliderneck when you go away for four days, buy extra bowls and then make up each meal into individual zip lock bags in the freezer, label bowls and bags so the glidersitter does not have to do more than replace bowls, and empty packets into fresh bowls.

You are a gliderneck when you are going away for 4 days, and your husband labels instructions onto everything....right down to "shut door", "lock me please", "place bowl here" etc signs all over the aviary.

You're a gliderneck when you watch a tv show that your glider wants to watch even though it's a repeat you have seen many times.

You're a glider neck if you covet a friend's car number plates... SG 001
and wondering if they will sell them to you !!

Ko you are on a roll! :-) I covet your rare book and your friends plates!!

You Know You're a Glider-Neck When...

Your friends come over for a party and bring you a homemade birthday cake with a suggie photo on it. No, not spiderman or Spongebob - but a suggie in a chef's hat!!! :-)

You Know You're a Glider-Neck When...

You keep feeding the carpenter and assistant so they don't have to leave the house for lunch breaks. Because each hour one of your suggie colonies has to wait before their new room is ready is another hour you can't play with them full bore....

You are a glider neck when you go on holiday and you don't buy any presents for the family but remember to purchase a bottle of rainforest honey as a treat for the gliders.

You know your a Glider neck when....... You have a seperate checking account for when your able to get a pair of suggies but you havent even set up your kids college fund.

Fireaggate you need a bumper sticker that says:

"We're spending our kids' inheritance" (But with "kids" scrathced out and replaced by "gliders"....

You are a gliderneck when the first copy finally turns up and you are HAPPY that you have two copies of the SAME rare glider book....and paid a small fortune for both Sad isn't it?

Ko, no just smart! Wow you can keep one to hand down to family members and the other one is an investment. If you ever want to sell it let me know... :-)

You are a glider addict when your gliders are fed like clockwork but the human family never have a set dinner time.

Sadly I have a copy at home and a copy at work ! Yes my work PC also has a lovely glider desktop!

OK but if you run across another copy somehow and don't want a third, I will pay you a broker's fee to capture it :-)

You Know You're a Glider-Neck When....

Anyone who asks what they should dress up as for Halloween gets the same answer

You Know You're a Glider-Neck When....

You have to keep labeling bottles and tupperware containers with "glider food" warnings. Dehydrated, powdered fly pupae look a lot like fine ground coffee....

You Know You're a Glider-Neck When....

You keep pulling your car off the road to look at empty lots and empty commercial buildings to ponder property for a rescue ranch for gliders...

Thats funny.
I can see you waking up in the morning, and [half asleep of course] you accidently switch the coffe and the dehydrated flys.. XD
hmmm folgers must have a new flavor.

You are a glider addict when you go to a work cafe at lunchtime and buy the freshest home made type fruit salad ...not for yourself but for a treat for the gliders that night.

Ko that is so true!!!!

You know when you are a glider addict when you take your glider to bed so you can watch tv together!! Even more so, when you take appropriate snacks with you in case you both get the nibbles!!

PS. Charlie loves Law and Order so I even watch the repeats of repeats! She controls the remote.

My work colleagues think Im mad.

You know you are a glider addict when in the middle of Summer you run short on mealworms so stop by the Pet shop for more supplies on the way to work. Of course then you store them in your own fridge at work much to the horror of the work colleagues who like to use your fridge for their lunches too!

You know you are a glider addict when you take one of your gliders to the pet shop to pick out her own mealworms.

You know you are a glider addict when you are posting to a "glider addict" thread though you should be on your way to work.

Tell your boss you swerved to avoid hitting a possum and you had to collect your thoughts.... :-)

You pick your son up late from school because you're too busy being occupied taking pictures of your sleeping monkeys! Sorry, little man! (I was only 5 mins. late-didn't leave him standing on the curb or anything LOL)

You eat a mealworm.

I'd already tried all their other food, the yoggies are yummy btw, so I figured I'd give it a go.

They don't taste bad. The initial squish was a little... odd, but other than that, not bad. With a little seasoning they might actually be good.
