It starts.
SFIT (Seattle Festival of Improv Theater) started last night. I had the good pleasure of doing all the design work (except web design, I just made the graphics for that). I love me some SFIT. It's strange when I started attending festivals with Dead Parrots Society I was so intimitated by meeting other groups. I really worried we would be the weak link in any chain we happened to be a part of. I later learned, boy howdy, we can compete. And what I was doing was not that far off base of what the rest of the country was doing. And as I attended more festivals, I began to learn what a small tight knit community it is. We greet each other with hugs, not handshakes, as we enter one another's city. Improvisers strike up conversation over drinks, make fast friends, and really have a good time.
I'm starting to feel much more at home amongst these people as well. People are remembering me, and if they can't recall my name, they definitely know my face. There are times when I feel a bit Tuesday Kid, but they are grossly outnumbered by hanging out and just chatting with people.
I've got to go to meeting for work, hung over no less. More on SFIT to come.
