These days someone only has to have Fitz in their surname, like your Ella Fitzgerald, and I'm GONE, off on a RotE trance...no music needed
!Could be we are more than a little obsessed?!

You realize you have a t-shirt that has the following advertisement
Regal

Pet Foods
And you think it's really amusing.

...When introduced to someone new, you watch them for unusual animal-like mannerism and then test them by making direct eye contact.
...The remains of a campfire close to a river make you very nervous.
...You name your cat Fennel, and it is always asking for fish.

(and that doesn't include the hours you consumed before you registered!)!

And I think the only thing mentioned in that song they did in the books was drink tea!
Here's what I'm talkin' bout:
(seems to be two alternate starting lyrics)
There are many many crazy things
That will keep me loving you
And with your permission
May I list a few
(OR apparently:
Our romance won't end on a sorrowful note,
Though by tomorrow you're gone;
The song is ended, but as the songwriter wrote,
The melody lingers on.
They may take you from me, I'll miss your fond caress.
But though they take you from me, I'll still possess. )
The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that
No they can't take that away from me
The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No they can't take that away from me
We may never never meet again, on that bumpy road to love
But I'll always, always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No they can't take that away from me

...you are instantly transported back to Fool's funeral pyre after you drive past a pub and see the sign 'The Rooster Perch on the Crown'

...you're driving around town with your husband at the wheel asking,"Where to now?" and you reply without thinking, "The Rain Wilds"
