We have a cat named Gypsy.   I learned the hard way not to leave adult beverages on the table unattended  for any length of time....I came back to see a curious little black kitten tasting her first rum and coke!   Shooed her off the table and she ran off....then watched her stagger back in a few minutes later.   She is now called...wait for it..

Tipsy Gypsy!

Crocheting flowers and scarves isn't enough...no you have to find the book with the baby Cthulhu pattern (which also includes patterns for knights, clerics, ninjas, zombies, etc...) and start mass-producing them for friends....

...you have already started plotting entirely crocheted chess sets (Zombies v Ninjas anyone?)....

Before you ask, the full sets, including crocheted chess board, will be in the $200 range....the little buggers take forever to make!!

When you pack for the weekend you have 3 times as many bags because you going to the faire.

[Lady Renee Buchanan]

when your church (where you are an acolyte and chalicist and your husband has been the clerk of the vestry) will celebrate its 175th anniversary, and gala celebrations for the weekend of April 24th & 25th have been planned, including a visit and blessing from the Bishop, visiting clergy, celebration dinner, etc.

And you bought your plane tickets and have hotel reservations for RenDezvous at Scarborough, yup, that very same weekend.

Deja Vu  Our Bishop is coming for his visit Nov. 22, which is the last day of CRF.  One guess where I'll be that day.

if you refuse to wear a rain poncho in a downpour because no one will be able to see your garb.

*sniff* I'm so proud of my niece.  Although my parents thought we were nuts.

If you look forward to coming home and eating 1/2 a jar of your favourite Lady MacArthur pepper product! (yep. pepper pusher here, and I dont wanna be cured!!!)

...your idea of relaxing after work is getting all garbed up, bodice and everything, even though you're not going anywhere.

...you find an excuse to wear at least the belt, or the shoes, or something, to school just because you're going through withdrawls

...you plan your 21st birthday party around the Fair...as a matter of fact, you tell everyone that the thing that makes you most excited about it being your 21's on a Friday the 13th, is that Saturday the 14th is Sarasota Fair...and that's the day you tell everyone to come.

...You play a video game that contains much of the British accent because, not only do you enjoy the game, you like to practice your accent and talk to the characters yourself...

...you do the house cleaning in a bodice, just because you find it more comfortable.

[SelenaK16]

...if you won't study for your classes in college, but you study a garb pattern all night long.

HaHa! Guilty as charged...many, many times over 

[metalcelt]

You go to a Faire during October in Northwestern PA while there is a blizzard going on.....

in my case I was working it, we had patrons still coming in the gate!

[LadySeasan]

you'd rather spend the last day of faire with your fairemily instead of spending that same sunday with your real family (because they dont get your obsession with faire)

[Jade Sapphire Emerald]

...you move out and you don't have any knives other than butter knives so you use you Ren Garb weapons as cooking utensils when needed...

-getting your Halloween costume ready means looking in your closet instead of going to a store.

-You hate spending $25 on a store-bought Halloween costume but you'll spend twice that much on 1 piece of garb for a Halloween costume.

Funny story:  My mom asked if we had any garb she might borrow for a costume she was working on for a Halloween thing at her school.  I was verbally listing stuff we have & said 'DH has some black pants' & she instantly said 'Oh, he's skinner than me.  His pants won't fit'.  We had to explain numerous times that garb of that nature (pants, RenShirts, etc) are usually very forgiving & that DH, DS & I trade garb on a regular basis, depending on the look we're trying to put together.  Even then I don't think she believed us until she actually tried the stuff on. 

Maybe next year we can get her to dress up for Faire.
