..., after days of shovelling and constructing garden beds and stone paths in your backyard, you finally look at your bleedy, scraped knuckles and torn fingernails, feel the corns or calluses on your hands, see your sun-drenched and freckle-spattered skin, touch your dry, wind-blown hair and wonder to yourself, "What would Ronica think?"

...your hulking seventeen-year-old wakes up after sleeping most of his Saturday away in front of the cricket and thus you ask if he needs something to eat and he replies, "No thanks, I'm content" and then your mind flits immediately to those closing three words on the last page of Fool's Fate...

It has to be said...multiple back-to-back posts in this thread prove my obsession, and I don't even scratch the surface of things that I think throughout my days...
...still, here's one of a million from today's travels......you are reading 'Dragon Keeper' to your husband as he's driving through the rain and then, when the storm breaks, you both look up and remark the perfect dragon the two of you see formed within the clouds...
I think my obsession may be rubbing off onto the yang to my yin somewhat?

Several of my best friends and I have all read (and love) the series and quite often we make remarks on stuff that brings RotE to mind.. I only never write them down and by the time I make my way to this thread, I've forgotten them.
But, Farseer, you are not alone. Hahah

Haha, this made me laugh out loud!
No you are definately not alone Farseer, when revising for my driving theory test recently I remembered that amber studs were on the right of a motorway by thinking "Amber is the Fool and the Fool is always RIGHT". It worked though I have to say

What a great way to remember! Did you pass? 
RE: SPOILERS ALL BOOKS You know you're hooked when... - Relpda - Dec-16-2011
I did pass and I was ridiculously pleased when I got that particular question too
Lets just hope I get similar (Kennit style 
) good luck for my practical test in 2012 now

I knew our little obsession would have it's uses somewhere.
