I WANT that mug!!!!!!!! Where did you get that?
I had it made. http://www.sued.aldifotos.de/panoramatasse/ Though I must admit I'm not totally happy with it. The green came out too dark, and even though the logo is actually round, the curve of the mug makes it appear more oval that round. Lessons learned, just in case I wanna do something like that again.

Ah Okay
Well I think Aldi uses a different labatory, but at least at CeWe those print is put onto the cups by hand : (I used to work for an online photo finishing service )

When you have 'The Game is On' as your ring tone and everytime you pick up you go into an almost Sherlock-ish state of being ready for anything. And when standing up you do Ben's 'Phone dance'

Also when you sometimes wait a little too long to pick up because you just want to listen to it.

When your boss is rehearsing a coming conversation with a difficult server user, explaining she wouldn't sound so angry in the real situation.
You reply: " you mean 'imagine I said that without shouting'".

Aw, Teejay, I'm sorry!! The silly thing is, that's how I take my Tea, too - most people seem to have it really milky though!

I was saying that very tongue-in-cheek, no need to apologize. (Unless you're Canadian, then it's okay.) I've never quite "gotten" why you would want milk in your tea, but I do take tons of sugar. I've even been accused of having sugar with tea once or twice.

My screenlock on my mobile is the wallpaper of 221b with the smiley.
My ringtone is "The game is on".
Fitting our scedule at the hospital concerning pentacost around the aim of being at home in time to watch the german broadcasting of S3.
John in the cafe late night and Sherlock watching him sadly from outside through the window is my desktop and even hubby likes it.

When the song 'Like a Virgin' suddenly has a whole new meaning for you.

And when last years Eurovision winner (Who sort of is the reason that my dreams of being part of the Eurovision coming true) posts a funny selfie on Facebook and tags it 'watching Sherlock on Netflix; what is everyone else doing tonight?'... and your first thought is "I've never been more proud of you!"

And when you get really annoyed with people who call you when you're trying to watch your Sherlock DVD's

besleybean · April 9, 2014 2:35 pm

Going to see Andrew in threatre on Thursday
Going to the Sherlock event on Friday.

When you enter your room at office in the morning.
You directly realize that your post-it pad and one of your pens have been moved. When you put the pen back, you notice it is open. So you deduce somebody has wrote a note with your stuff. But nothing in the room... then you enter the kitchen opposite your room and first thing you see is a note at a coffee pot saying there is tea inside of it...
Making deductions? Lol...

This Is The Phantom Lady · April 10, 2014 9:12 am

I do the deductions all the time, I can't even stop myself!

Yesterday I walked behind 3 suits and suddenly I just knew who was the boss and that they had been in a long meeting, the length of the meeting I read in the creases on the back of the boss' suit.

nwiggins02 · April 10, 2014 12:45 pm

you know your obsessed with Sherlock when rather than ask someone where they have been you try to work it out...

Also on another note proud of my mum whom I got obsessed with Sherlock and is doing the same as me now cos someone moved her ipad and she worked out who it was all very Sherlock like haha

That ... was amazing!

I bet Sherlock would roll his eyes at me though...

And then add his own deduction to it..

This Is The Phantom Lady · April 10, 2014 1:06 pm

No doubt! I bet he could even tell us who ate the wafer!

nwiggins02 · April 10, 2014 1:11 pm

hahaha and then with a swoosh of his coat he would be gone ;-)

gently69 · April 11, 2014 10:53 am

... when you use so many quotes from the show.
Right. A cross I have to bear. Not my area. Oh God Yes! Obvisiously. Clearly ... and so on ...

Even more strange if you speak German and then ... Englisch quotes inbetween ... LOL

TeeJay · April 11, 2014 10:59 am

I used "Not my division" at work just recently. Of course no one got it. *sigh*

Mattlocked · April 11, 2014 10:59 am

I do that when talking to foreign customers. And with hubby. Not when speaking German with my colleagues. They would send me to the madhouse.
Hubby only rolls his eyes, that's fine.
