True story: last night I had a dream where some british people were annoying me so I asked them to leave...they declared war! A few minutes later some english swordsmen were sneaking up on me, while my swordsmen invaded england

... when you visit Egypt and see a tomb of Cleopatra, you start convincing people that she's immortal.
... when you fight and wonder why do you get hit 5 times in a row.
... when you find Catherine attractive

The worse part is that she is still at Uni so she has more free time. Every day when I get home from Uni she is there playing away. Any ideas how to get her not to like the game anymore

Play civ together! You would be so cute, sitting together by the computer.

When I was getting woken up, but didn't want to, I explained to my mom that I needed to stay in bed until it produced another defender.
I was very tired.

When you're driving along thinking about the evening's strategy for getting rid of those darn Germans who parked right on your borders and you rear-end the car in front of you... then wonder why you turned the autosave off so you can't reload and avoid the accident.

I had them write "manning the Apolyton terminal" into my job description... if they only knew what that meant.

Here are two REAL "you know you've played to much civ3" examples that happened to me yesterday:
WARNING!!! THis is a bit graphic and funny!
You know you've played too muc civ3 when you desperately have to drop a huge load and pinch it off for an hour because you're in the middle of a huge battle.  Then you begin to wish you were playing on a laptop so you can take it with you.
I woke up this morning from a dream where I was trying to be the first civ to get my settler to a tile that was irrigated and had iron AND spices - possible only in a dream.

it's kind of hard to play civ3 on a laptop... not to mention in a bathroom.
You know you play too much civ3 when you're still posting in a you know you play too much thread  or maybe

You realize the war was really fun, and now you just click from one year to another improving your culture just so that you can tell your history teacher that you were researching Hitler's and Neapolitan’s motivation for conquest. No wonder the middle eastern's space program is throwing rocks at each other. Maybe they can buy one from a corporation or poorer developed nation who needs the cash and who loves to drain capital from poor countries.

You think your Bosses look like Abe Lincoln, Cleopatra and other historical figures. And you wonder when they will increase entertainment.

Completly off topic;
You know you've played to much Counter-Strike when you flush the toilet and say:" Sector clear"
