You know you're obsessed with Hamilton....

I recently saw a video about stages of becoming obsessed with Hamilton. I can certainly relate to some of the stages mentioned. Here's my personal list of how obsessed I am with Hamilton.

*I've succeeded in getting my older son obsessed so we can share in our love for this great musical.

*I've never seen it on stage, but I can picture all the scenes in my head.

*I saw a picture of Jonathan Groff in a magazine and immediately told my son "It's the King of England!" (My son actually said "You mean King George?")

*I was disappointed that I couldn't find an Alexander Hamilton figure at Madame Tussaud's. (Yes, I was looking for one...)

*I have the songs going through my head...."Non-Stop!" ("Why do you write like you're writing out of time?")

*I find random videos online and watch them all the time. My favorite is still the high school performing Hamilton, where it looks like a mockumentary. I also love the a capella group.

*I listen to the soundtrack in my car all the time and then feel like I'm betraying it if I "Take a Break." ("There's a little surprise before supper and it cannot wait.")

*I use lines to describe a certain Presidential candidate potentially winning the election. ("The world turned upside down.") However, I hope I can instead sing "You're never gon' be President now..." come Election Day.

*I saw a street named Schuyler and immediately wanted to say "Work, work..."

*I got all happy about recently meeting a kid named Alexander and e-mailing with a woman named Peggy.

*I downloaded the lyrics so my son and I can learn the words to the songs better.

*I rushed home from work to watch the coverage from the White House a few weeks ago.

*I find ways to work Hamilton into conversations whenever possible or try to figure out who is as obsessed as I am.

*I sing the songs around the house all the time.

*I just want to be in the room (or theater) where it happens and if I see it once "that would be enough." (Who am I kidding?!? I only saw Rent 10 times on stage...)

*When someone asks "what time is it?" I want to say "it's showtime!"

And finally...

*I'm working on a way to fit one of the songs into our Passover Seder this year.
