You know you're a hosehead when you log on to cpaptalk about 100 times a day(!?!) and when you can't wait to see what someone replies to your post or that thread you have been following.

You cringe whenever someone calls it a C-PAK

Wasn't that a movie with Kevin Spacey (or some title like that)?

You know you're a hose head, when getting up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, and forget to detach the hose and nearly flip the night stand.

When you start to look at other people as potential apnea sufferers.
(because you recognize the symptoms)

If the number of masks they have outnumbers their shoes.

When you start looking at the shape and size of other people's noses and wonder what type of mask would be best for them. (When you haven't even found your OWN perfect mask!)

Sharon,
Or when someone refers to their O2 sats as "stats" LOL

When I worked in a hospital, a patient (or family member) would sometimes ask how their "stats" are running. It took everything I had to resist the urge to say....

"Well, you've got 14 RBI's, 5 HR's and 2 bases on balls"

My sense of humor ets me in trouble sometimes

... when you wake up, put on your glasses, and check your AHI and leak rate BEFORE you go pee.

And here I thought I was the only one who cringed when he says nu-cu-lar. I always loudly correct him (much to the consternation of anyone within earshot), but he never gets the hint.

"Well, you've got 14 RBI's, 5 HR's and 2 bases on balls"

I suppose that's better than 2 balls on base..
For the shorter CPAPER's, anyway.

You know you're a CPAP'er when your wife asks about colored
hoses to better match the bedroom decor.

Yeah, I'm sending her shopping for fleece to make hose covers with.
