Signs you've been at IHOP too long

I am guilty of most of these, though not all...hey, I like to switch up my seating in the prayer room sometimes. Keeps life interesting.

• You wear your nametag everywhere


• You are not a prayer leader, but you are always drafted to cut off the line for rapid-fire intercession


• You are not on a worship team, but you know the code to the briefing room


• You are not a preacher by vocation, but the internships all call you when a guest speaker can't make it and no one else is available


• You sit in the same section of the prayer room every day...and usually it's the same seat. *cough* JUSTIN RIZZO *cough*


• You spend all of your free time on the coffee shop patio


• You stand along the back wall or in the fire exit when you don't want to engage in the prayer meeting


• You know how to eat while still fasting ("hey, there's peanut butter in this cookie--my Daniel fast remains unbroken!!")


• Misty Edwards actually knows your name


• You live at Herrnhut but you still drive to IHOP


• You shop at the Wal-Mart on State Line


• You take your Nalgene water bottle everywhere, even to Wal-Mart


• You can identify IHOP's senior leadership by their prayer language


• Your Bible is barely readable because of your five-color highlighting system


• You don't go shopping any more; you just eat at Higher Grounds
