You know you have been TTC when......
....months no longer come in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd ect... they become CD1, CD2, CD3 and so on
....You pee on a stick and wait the allotted time, see only one line, then throw it away, but dig it out of the trash at least 2-3 times that same day to see if another line showed up and you just missed it.
....when you ask people you have never met in real life to diagnose you via the internet. "Am I ovulating?" "Am I pregnant" "Is this Normal" LOL

OMG Becca! U hit most of what I do! LOL!!! 
You know you have been TTC when......
......sex is no longer "just" for pleasure, it has a strict purpose and it HAS to be done on certain days.
.......post BD'ing you have a ritual you do such as propped up pillows, legs up in the air, or some other thing that makes you look like a circus performer.
.......you know almost EVERY acronym here on JM and tend to use them in "real" conversation.

You know you have been TTC when....
...you are up till midnight researching the latest thing you heard to help in getting pregnant.
....you email your husband at work and tell him that tonight we are having sex.
....everything is measured in 2 weeks.
.....your kitchen/bathroom counter looks like a pharmacy.

or
you crack open the HPT just in case there is a line that is before the window or will only show up when you hold it up to the light.

You know you've been trying to conceive too long....
When one of your friends is just starting TTC and you start rambling off a list of things that they need: OPK's, HPT's, BBT's, FF and they look at you like you have 15 heads..
When you're talking in acronym to your DH and he completely understands.

You know you have been TTC when....
-Your nightstand looks like a pharmacy (baby wipes for clean-up, thermometer for BBT, box of preseed, etc.)
-You HATE AF not only for the inconvineance but because it means a sure BFN.
- You turn down overtime on certain days so you know you're home to DTD.
-Your book shelves look more like an OB/GYN's office than a home library.

This is to funny!!! I have done most of those. Love the pee cup one. Hehe
You know your ttc when
The first thing you do in the morning is log your temp on ff.
You set the alarm on a Sat (so you can be sure and temp at the same time)
You analize every twinge or pain.
You are always looking at the calendar.
You look up a possible dd even before a missed period.

LOL at all of those!! And at CD 8 KDD!!
I think you girls covered most of the ones I would have thought of!
You know you're TTC when you're tempted to ask your friends about their CM to see if they get EWCM (well I am because I never get it) lol
... when you schedule your fluid intake and your pee times so your pee is just right for OPKs

How about this one -
When planning overnight business trips, you project out your fertile days and book your travel accordingly!
Your BFF sends you monthy texts - Have you started your period yet? and you don't think it is weird

......when you schedule your dentist appointment for after you started AF
......when you buy DH boxers
......when you hope for sign of nausea
......when you start describing lines (faint, light, dotted, evaps)
read all of the above and I am just laughing so hard....THANK YOU
