Cabin fever already???

This could be bad. It's not even January and I'm already getting that itchy claustrophobic feeling I usually get in early March. I want to get out and meet people and do things and be surrounded by color instead of all the greys and blacks. It's this sort of feeling that leads me to sign up for wayyyy too many classes and events and then feel swamped when April rolls around, the weather gets better, and I realize I've overextended myself.

Case in point: I went to the Intercon C website and signed up or waitlisted myself for almost *every* LARP they're offering. Right now I'm definitely playing a turn-of-the-century circus performer, an auditioner for a twisted community theatre, a vamp of some sort, a mortal trapped on a cross-country bus ride through the WOD, and someone from a Parliament/Funkadelic song lyric. I'm waitlisted as a fairy tale character, a Victorian gentleman and a zombie.

(The only thing I could definitely resist was the chance to play a fish in the hotel swimming pool LARP, and that's because I can't swim and have an aversion to showing up dripping wet to the other events. You see what I mean? Madness.)

On a related note: folks who'll be around Boston on New Year's Eve, would anyone be interested in getting dressed up and taking part in the big parade?

I'm sure that if I had the opportunity to LARP a turn-of-the-century circus performer I wouldn't be able to resist either. On the other hand, unlike you the concept of a swimming pool LARP is rediculously attractive to me because I love swimming. How incredibly insane though, in the water role play is deffinitely not something I'd come up with on my own.
