Obsession Signs

You know you are obsessed with Ewan McGregor or Moulin Rouge when...

*You have a photo album of internet picture printouts and such of Ewan -- titled "Ode to Ewan"

*When you go to Disney World, you want to ride the Star Wars ride in hopes of seeing Ewan, only to be let down by the fact that its just a simulation ride with robots. Alas! (jk) The hallway takes you to the store where you see this

*Your nine-year-old brother knows everything about him, and knows when youre going to talk about him by the tone of your voice

*You want to see a movie with Jude Law because he is best friends with Ewan

*You have a website

*Youve seen Moulin Rouge like.. a bazillion times

*You can spend an entire day watching the DVD in all modes -- Audio commentary (both types!), finding eggs (by the way- can anyone figure out how to get the ones with the numbers? .. i.e.: press 19 enter, 5 enter)

*You have any or all of the following:

      Moulin Rouge shirt

      Moulin Rouge poster

      Moulin Rouge DVD

      Moulin Rouge VHS tape (yes, I have both!)

      Moulin Rouge Official book

      Moulin Rouge CD

      Moulin Rouge CD 2

      Ewan poster

*People sign your yearbook I hope you marry Ewan McGregor!, or, Hey Mrs. McGregor!, or, Moulin Rouge rocks!

* You have a recorded tape of all of Ewan/Moulin Rouge TV appearances (courtesy of http://www.tv-now.com)

* Your AOL away message can be Ewan or Movie and your friends know your talking about Moulin Rouge

*Your best guy friends are jealous of Ewan (hey, I would be too, if I were a guy!)

*You and your sister email pictures of Ewan back and forth and discuss how great he is for quitting smoking (even if it IS long distance- Texas to Florida!)

* You buy magazines just because he is in them

ex. In Style March issue (it was only a little horoscope picture!)

Maxim (MENS FASHION!) he was the cover story- it was way worth going all over town for it!

* You watch Star Wars behind the scenes footage (like 2 hours worth) just to wait to hear him say something funny

* You quote Ewan, like, all the time!

*Half of your inside jokes with people are about Ewan or Moulin Rouge

* You havent seen half of his movies, but even so, you can tell which movie their in and say what the character name is just by the hair cut!

* Your mom gets a Valentine from one of her students featuring Obi Wan and you carry it around in your wallet for months!

*You want to play Come What May and Your Song (the Ewan McGregor version) at your wedding

*You have to write a poem for English about your favorite sport or hobby and you write yours on Moulin Rouge

*You get mad when people pronounce his name wrong

*Whenever you listen to "Come What May" you see yourself at your wedding.(Marrying You-Know-Who) !!!! (Thanks Diana!!!)

*When you are poor and can't get the cd, you steal it from your school's dance team and copy it onto your computer, thus burning your own :) (thanks Ashley!)

*You get mad when people think that it is Ewan singing "nature boy" at the beginning of the movie and NOT John! (thanks again, Ashley!!)
 
*When you could probably say the whole dialect of the movie! (yes, I can) (again, Ashley!!)
 
*You get mad when people say that Moulin Rouge is just a noisy film, and that Ewan McGregor is no singing, but yelling. (thanks Clem!)

Do you have obsession signs that I could add? Please email them to me at wecouldbeheroes1@hotmail.com. Thanks!

All of these things, I'm sad to say, are completely true for me. Oh well.
