Last night one of my friends and I hosted a murder mystery dinner. We each invited a few couples so nobody knew everyone there. It was a 1920s themed speakeasy full of mobsters and flappers. It was a blast. We could steal, blackmail and commit murders. I've discovered that the key to hosting a murder mystery party is to make a complete fool of myself from the beginning so nobody else feels stupid. Acting and making myself the center of attention like that takes me pretty far out of my comfort zone but I end up having a lot of fun. Everybody was good sports and we had a lot of fun spreading gossip and rumors. I think this party was a lot more fun than the pirate themed one we did three years ago because there was no script, just a booklet of secrets that everyone got and then they had to just run with it. I had a lot of fun designing stuff for the party. I hardly ever design things just for fun. Since we don't drink alcohol, I had prohibition themed soft drinks. They were pretty fun.
