Top Ten Ways To Know If You Are A Gardener

10.  When it's raining, you are proud that no one can tell you're sweating while you are digging.

9.   You love to be covered in mud and telling people "you are a down-to-earth person."

8.   You have human names for all the earthworms in your garden.

7.   You encourage the self-esteem of weeds by advocating their benefits to the public.

6.   You create your own welcome wagon to greet the beneficial bugs who happen into your garden.

5.   You write an irate letter to the Jeopardy Game show producers because they never include "Latin Plant Names"
     as a category.

4.   You stay up worrying all night because it's a full moon and your above ground crops may not be getting enough sleep.

3.   You are positive you can grow anything from clippings except toenails.

2.   Your family tells you that this year you will not be able to carry plastic bags along with you on vacation to collect
     compost ingredients to take home as souvenirs. (this actually happened to me!)

And the Number One way to tell that you are a gardener:

1.  You get the shakes when you think about all the coffee grounds that Starbucks could be composting.
