12. Your spouse files for divorce (because you're too serious about it) and you miss the court dates because you're too busy practicing. Years later you notice that the divorce papers are still sitting unopened on your piano collecting dust.

Plays Variations Sérieuses .... :P

Wakes up, plays piano, eats food at piano, goes to toilet at piano, when tired sleep on piano. When you dream you only dream about piano. When you speak its only ever about piano. Spend 20 years perfecting a single piece and get so overly obsessed over microscopic details that it scares you when you think about it so much that you must rush to a piano and practice for a few more hours to make yourself feel at ease. Wake up in the middle of the night, get frustrated you can't picture in your minds eye how a piece should be played so then you start playing on your piano again..... etc

abit off topic, but really, what we think of something being " too serious" is often just right for those pros. we get it?

08 (not 15): doesn´t listen to actual music, because s/he is too concerned with her/his own interpretations to bother about anything else.

Actually starves and loses weight due to practice and performance.

I have actually sort of done that.
but within reason. It's very cold where I live at times, so I have skipped meals before to practice...
Thing is, I feel as though I have to wash my hands when I eat.. And the water sometimes doesn't get warm, even so it stills makes my hands freezing. Having cold hands really frustrates me when I am trying to practice..
so I just skip the entire meal all together. probably not a good thing.. i need some gloves.

People that practice three to four hours a day look like real slackers to them.

You go out of your way to buy "sterile" copies of sheet music (sheet music without dynamic markings), then play every possible dynamic permutation through each phrase noting those that fit best to the time period in which the piece was written, then continuously narrow it down until you find the most convincing version. Then move to the next phrase, rinse, repeat.
You no longer listen to music from CD Player because you have a musical library in your head.
You find yourself mentally listening to a piece as it relates to a certain situation.
