Got this in answer to a question sent to jeananjoe while in Sedona. Wanted to
share the stuff below!

Thank you for looking for and finding our caches. We have 449 cache hides in
the Dewey/Prescott area.

WE Know WE ARE Addicted!!! Are YOU???

We woke up this morning with a feeling of grave agitation and high anxiety. Our
hands were shaking, our eyes were watery and we had a driving desire to go
outside. After a few minutes of searching our symptoms on the Internet we
quickly found that we were suffering from "Obsessive Compulsive Cache
Craving Syndrome" or OCCCS. There is no question, we are addicted to
Geocaching!
You know that you are addicted to Geocaching when:
? a colleague brings out their Tupperware lunch box
 and you automatically reach
for your pen to sign the log book.
? you can't walk down a path without thinking, "Hmmm, that'll be a
good place for a cache!".
? you type in your home co-ords and not the phone number.
? your idea of decorating the Christmas tree is to conceal all the presents at
its foot, beneath a camo covering of tinsel.
? your idea of gift-giving is to hide the gifts in the garden with co-ords and
a clue.
? you are watching TV and think "That's a beautiful place, I wonder
where the nearest cache is?'"
? you purposely take the kids to McDonalds to buy them a happy meal so you can
pinch the toy to use as a swap.
? you leave your PC and First To Find running overnight, with the volume
cranked right up - just in case?
? you give directions by which caches are passed, instead of which pubs are
passed.
? you start having nightmares about muggled caches.
? you sort through your pockets at
 the checkout at the supermarket and can only
offer Geocoins.
? the Easter Egg hunt you organize for your nephews involves the use of GPs
units and is in the form of a Multi.
? you automatically look around to ensure that you are not being observed
before opening your lunch box at work.
? you routinely gauge everyday object for their suitability as cache
containers.
? you spend more money on trinkets and swaps than you do on fruit and veggies.
? your party invitations include GPS coordinates.
? you always look up caches before you go anywhere.
? you waypoint your car at the shopping mall.
? you panic because you forgot to waypoint your car at the shopping mall.
? you consider moving because you've already found all the caches in your
area.
If you suffer from one or more of the symptoms above then it is likely that you
too suffer from this affliction.
Do not despair! We have found that there is an easy
 cure - more Geocaching!
That's right! Apparently, it has been found that more Geocaching will cure
this addiction. Well, it doesn't actually cure it but it sure does take your
mind off worrying about being addicted!

Love it! Especially the part about panicking because you forgot to waypoint the
car!

I forgot to do that on a desert cache once in the middle of summer...never
again
 have I forgotten!
