Spend Saturday night with your love, discussing which faires to attend next year...

My wife and I did that Friday!

I think we have it figured.... now it's just a matter of deciding which bank to knock over in order to afford it.  ;)

I know the feeling ... and I know a lot of others here do as well.

You slip into faire speak at work and no one bats an eye.
The mind is like a parachute, its best when open.

Lady Rebecca

You look at the weather for this weekend, and wish there was a faire around to go to, since it's going to be so perfect!

That happens to me, except sort of opposite. I'm a pirate at work. And sometimes I find myself accidentally speaking in pirate other places, as well!

You don't have any other boots (or closed-toed shoes for that matter) so you wear your pirate boots to work on the first cold day of Florida Winter.

You wake up on the first cold day of FL winter, and wish you had your long wool cloak to put on, because it's actually cold in your room (I sleep with my windows open).

Unfortunately, knowing there would be no cold ren faires in FL, the cloak is living at home with my parents.

LadyStitch

You walk into a store and see a girl bundled up in wool cloak, and fingerless gloves. When you walk up to her you can smell the wood smoke.
1) It makes you wish you were at TRF camp
2) with out preamble you say to her, "You were at TRF closing weekend, weren't you?"  They laugh, and say, how did you guess. 

While they check you out you chat about how your cloaks and garb are warmer than your mundane clothing.   ;D
It is kind of strange watching your personal history become costume.

Lady Renee Buchanan

You buy fingerless gloves because you're going to an indoor Renaissance faire where they keep the temperature deliberately low to give the feeling of a faire in winter.  You know you'll never wear them anywhere else, but they look great with your pirate garb!    ;D

You convince your son to give up half of his closet to use for garb.

(So I won't get yelled at, his closet has 2 rods on 1 side & 1 on the other.  He gets the side with 2 for his clothing & we're going to use the other side for garb.  He's fine with it.)

You misread a text to read " Go to Autozone and pick up wench " ( should be pick up wrench ) and you're wondering when they started carrying wenches.    :)

Every time you look at the new community school night course schedule you read pirates instead of pilates and it sounds perfectly fine to you.

Maybe it depends on whether it's a company or franchise store...  ;)   ;D
