You Know You're a True Rennie if...

The only reason you wish you had more money (if $$ isn't really a priority in your life) is so you could go to Faire more often, buy a bigger car for Faire, buy a house to keep all your Faire stuff in, and buy more garb.

or for some of us to add:

...So you can build more elaborate props for faire, so you can do more period looking structures for faire, or going off that, so you can refinish structures to look even better. (we all know some of the older buildings from the fledgling years of any faire can all use an update)

You find the plans for making a talking skull, and start wishing you had the $200 it would take to make the pair that would banter back and forth and repond to people who walk up to them.  (At the Piratefest in STL, we have a skeleton hanking in a crows cage and a second skeleton on the ground about ten feet from it. how cool would it be if they talked?)

You cant stop laughing when you find a small hotel in England named the Cross Keys Inn.  (is the cross keys inn bit all faires, or just mine? I dont know)

You see the washer turned icebox a page back and you remember the old bathtub someone at faire turned into a ice box in the campground.

You panic because there are only 6 weekends left to finish the faire site and you STILL have yet to get any work done on your own booth because of all the other work you do for faire.  and I though I was busy BEFORE I took over site maintainence

Your son is putting his garb on & you notice that his belt has the following on it:

-Naruto throwing knife set with pouchhttp://www.allanimedvd.com/images/shop/naruto/accessories/smallswordsetbg.jpg
-cheapo knife bought at the $5/$10 shop at TRF last year

and, the finishing touch....

-his Nintendo DSLite in its carrying case





That's my son!!

when you can give any patron directions to the Cross Keys Inn, without looking at a map.

(hint: it isn't on the map.)

The first time your husband wanted to ask you out for a date, he didn't know your real name. He spent two weeks trying to figure it out because he forgot to ask the one person who actually knew what it was.

I'm assuming this is before he was your husband ...

Found the information about the talking skulls, but its off topic to discuss them here, I'll start a topic in the Crafting section of the forums.

*edit*
Done. go to  http://www.renaissancefestival.com/forums/index.php?topic=6451.0 for info about how to build, or to see the talking skulls
