Jepp, right. Johnlock always confuses hubby because he of course thinks of "Lost".

So today in our history class we talked about separation of powers. When asked who the founder of the separation of powers was, the girl next to me answered: "John Locke" and of course I was like "whaaaaat".

Great!
I wish I would have recognised it when we learned this....

I have started really annoying people by crying at random moments "Jawn makes tea!" And sobbing into my bag.

When you spend your lunch break at work in an empty office watching Sherlock on your phone.

Just been to my book group.
Was looking through my reading diary, which has book quotes printed in it.
One is from 'Stuart' and I've written next to it: Benedict is in the film of this!

So… I don't even ship Johnlock (although sure, love the mental picture of them being all sweet together sometimes), and yet I still lost it at this song. This fandom/show has corrupted me so much….
I just heard David Guetta's 'Without You' for the first time. If you haven't heard it, easily found on youtube, and very nice! (just to add: there's actually a very awesome alternate video version to the 'music video', here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doWIkO1GGVo where they do that... what called... typography thing that is so cool when done well..)
At first just appreciating the nice song that it was… letting it get me a little sentimentally wistful about having someone you feel that way for. Nearly halfway through… ("I am lost, I am vain, I will never be the same" not to mention various other lines) it suddenly became about Sherlock and John? No idea how that happened…. Thought you guys would appreciate it!

...when you suddenly find yourself wearing a moustache in your fac... uhm, no, thank god, on your jacket, it's just the jacket!

You mean the "Keep calm..."-button, Sherlockian? I got it here:

Another side-effect of being obsessed with Sherlock Holmes: For a split-second you consider that yes, maybe $10,000 is a reasonable price for a Vertu mobile phone.

Luckily, that one passed very quickly.

When listening to Baker Street gives you feels

Thanks a lot, buying it right now (and maybe a couple of others, too...)

I remember the rubbish ones and forget the more obvious.
Each day at work when I put my official coat on...collar up!

You should have seen us at the London meet in march - we met a sax player in the tube, and he promptly played 'Baker Street' for us - unreal and yes, I know the song is actually 'only' about a flat share but it is still cool!!

... you are joining your dad in front of the TV and it's a cycling race on (which you are not interested in at all) but you suddenly start to cheer when you find out that one guy is called Sebastien Reichenbach. :D
... you are watching Scrubs on TV and when the song 'Sinnerman' comes up you jump up and within one minute you are watching Sherlock.

When you feel insanely happy because your bus suddenly has a poster for The Fifth Estate on the side

When you get really excited that the radio station you listen too occationally have Benedict Cumber-news!!!

Honestly, I have so much to do today( going on hol tomorrow,), yet I still found time to search my last Sherlock forum:
27 Feb 2012, was when I 1st predicted Amanda would play Mary Morstan in S3.
Can't believe(well actually, I can!) I would be waiting (I hope) nearly 2 years to get the answer!
