The first year I went to Burning Man in 2003, Mars was the closest it had been to earth in 60,000 years!
This year on August 28th there is a total Lunar Eclipse!

The total eclipse begins at 2:52am and ends at 4:22am.
I'll be wearing my fuzzy planets and stars pj's (with glow in the dark stars) that night!

OMGIGTFBMIOW moment

One Neon Green bicycle seat cover
One Cardinal beanie baby walkie talkie cover
(that's right Lex, "You Bet Your Sweet ASS I Am" Cardinal reprezent on the playa y0!)
One white fuzzy jacket pinned with ultramarine blue el wire
One Transit Rear rack installed on bike and retrofitted with green neon fur top,
and one pink and one blue spiral EL wire pattern on each side of the pack.

Burning Man vs. Katrina
Sep. 7th, 2005 08:57 amIt was amazing and breathtaking and beautiful, hot and dusty and my sinus' are wrecked.
I am filled with hope and creativity and amazement, while at the same time returning to
all of my friends back home being homeless and distraught and shaken to their core.
I received two of three calls I was desperate to hear news from. When i told one of my friends I was on my way to BM, she replied. "Burning Man is the ONLY reason I can handle this right now, it's the only reason I am not a complete wreck. I own two pairs of pants and three shirts and everything else is gone. Knowing there exists a place like BM and having been there is what is keeping me going."

one more week
Aug. 22nd, 2005 01:06 pmSo burning man is right around the corner.
I can't wait to purge myself of all the negativity that has been haunting me for the last three months.
To let the harshness of the desert burn away the pain, and the cold to renew me with strength.
To breathe in the playa and become part of something greater then myself,
my stilted community here in san diego,
my ideas of who the people in my life are to me.
To let go of my attachment to the love that left me.
To once again be free and simpy me.
I lose myself in distractions so easily.
It's time to come home...
( for all of you who know me best, and those of you who never bothered )
