...when you automatically think "it's Sherlock?" when you read a newspaper and come across an article where a worried citizen phoned the police because he saw an apparent helpless person in the street standing at a corner in just a bed sheet.

It was not Sherlock, but art.

...when this art-person suddenly wears a bobble-hat and glasses for some time and you remember Sherlock with the bobble-hat.
The art-person currently wears a black jumber, btw.

When you can't seem to finish a novel because you keep getting distracted by fan fics.

when you suddenly realize that Mr. Arwel Wyn Jones (on behalf of Sherlock) does a good job when he cares for furniture in 221 B. Chairs for example.
Sometimes something looks sad at a first glance and suddenly it looks better somehow and is the most funny thing I saw today.

When you need to stay awake as you walk by a busy road; as to not fall over and you recite Sherlock's lines in your mind.

Today it was Sherlock deducing who Molly's Christmas present was for. Aw

... your colleague asks you, "Any ideas?" and you respond, "Yes. Seven."

Started texting people and complaining that I am bored constantly! Annoying myself!

When you are watching Band of Brothers and you think for a second that one of the paratroopers looks like Moriarty. And to make it even better when you point it out to your husband his response is 'Hi, thought you might like this grenade.'

When you've gotten a habit to look at yourself in the mirror before leaving the house thinking "What would Sherlock deduce about me today..." and change what I can if it's not what I want to hear...

- When you see a man on the roof of a tall building standing at the edge looking at the view and your first thought is Sherlock and TRF... (The man was fine btw, he was laying roof tiles)

- You see an advert for a trip to London and again, all you think is the Sherlock sites

Even your husband has started refering to Benedict Cumberbatch as your "boyfriend."

- When you tell your mother on the phone that you started painting and mention the first study you made was Sherlock inspired and she goes "... What a surprise"

xD

When you are watching Band of Brothers and you realise one of the paratroopers IS Andrew Scott! Then get all sentimental about the time he strapped a bomb to John!

When you start wearing your robe around the house all day like Sherlock wears his dresing gowns..
When you borrow your hubby's *blue* scarf all the time..

You read on Facebook that today is 'Sherlock-day' and doesn't hesitate to grab a pen and write '221B' on your wrist to show you still believe in Sherlock Holmes.

My husband is just the same. "Benjamin", "Dominic", "your friend" - on the last one I prefer to answer "which one?"

...when you hear the quote: "Is it supposed to feel squishy? It's a sprain." and you think that it's actually clever and funny.
