You might be an orchid enthusiast...
if you find yourself explaining to your exasperated husband why the dishwasher is clogged with orchid media.. 
..note always wash off the orchid pots with the hose before you put them in the dishwasher.

You try to get to the OS meeting early so you can look over the vendor/speaker's plants, talk him into selling you his "sample" plant on the condition you leave it on his table so others can see it. Price? What's that?

i've heard this story too! this old guy love orchids so much. he go to the show sans the missus but bring the scissors in his pocket. then he does what maybe the rest of us did, sneak the plant into the greenhouse (for me would be my porch) then when the missus notice when it flowers he tell stories! |

You might be an orchid addict when...
...You pee yourself laughing over "you might be an orchid addict when..." jokes
...A $350 order of orchids sound perfectly normal to you when everyone you know thinks you are off your rocker.
...You are already planning on another $350 order before you even receive the first one.
...You read 16 pages of "you might be an orchid addict when..." jokes in one sitting!
...You begin to hyperventilate when you find out there is a VERY small chance of going to an orchid greenhouse.
...You have secret plans to let your orchids take over the house.
...You buy another orchid to soothe the pain of loosing one.
...You would like to determine a house purchase based solely on the amount and direction of windows.
...You check your orchids a thousand times a day and are disappointed every time because there is not five kilometers of new growth.
...Orchid Board is the first thing you check in the morning, followed by your orchids
And finally...
...You revive an ancient post just to put some jokes on!
I have to admit I was laughing constant while reading this stuff!
