out upon it then
- 1. You get more involoved in making your daughter's halloween costume than necessary (but she won first prize, damn it!).
2. You start shopping online for business supplies and end up considering buying 48 of these: http://www.wholesaledirectonline.com/kk299.html
3. You call a fellow burner and offer to help them with their household chores.
4. Sex with your partner is the best ever, and they think it's just because you are in love.
5. You notice when you are being insincere just like everybody else always did.
6. You catch yourself fingering your ipod a little too loveingly.
7. You start reading Alan Watts again.
8. Laughter comes from your belly instead of your lungs.
9. You watch drmo's video short until you lick the screen:

10. After all is said and done, and all the dust has settled, you hang out on the E-playa like a little lost kitten and mew at anybody who walks by.

Hey, Tartlet, you still owe me something deep and revealing. Did you think I would forget?

1) The color of your piss is STILL of great interest.
2) On returning to work, your boss asks where it is and you proceed to give him a big hug, instead of the report he was looking for.
3) Raiman noodles are no longer a poor mans dinner, but a small window back in time to a better, more dusty place.
4) When witnessing people in sandals and socks you nod your head, instead of tutting, wondering if they moisturised as well.
5) Dressing up for halloween you decide your Crow outfit would only be complete if you wear that faux fur coat, just to balance all the black.

Was that up the street and to the right, and was filled every night?

Earth and 5:00
Kewl! I was at Earth and 5:00 too, in the little caravan that said "Large Marge" on the side. That bar was down the street from me and I just loved the way their music kept embracing different themes... all good! We danced to a David Bowie set, there was Sex Pistols, Oingo Boingo, Chant, Techno, real diverse.samtzu wrote:Was that up the street and to the right, and was filled every night?

Mew mew!
Smiling through the big bottle of their Early Times whiskey, I asked a spikey haired guy behind the bar if he was responsible for the wonderful music selection. "If I were, I wouln't be playing this shit" he moped of early Bowie like somebody's reluctant little brother who got dragged there. It made my night! The music was so good it was hard to plug the ears and get some sleep but cool when I took them out and their whole theme had changed by morning.
Sometimes it's all about the music... oh, and the booze too!

1. You find beef jerky in every pocket.
2. You think it is normal to go outside naked and dance at any hour.
3. You caress strangers just to pass good energy around
4. You don't wash your hair for four days and then try to find new hair styles
5. You see new costume ideas everywhere you turn.
6. You start inventing new fire twirling equipment.
7. You're sure belly dancing should be an olympic sport.

I know I haven't decompressed yet, I'm still visit Bruning Man and the people I met in my dreams at night, and I day dream about them during the day. I want to go back!

You actually do a double take while driving by a garage sale thinking you saw a wooden puzzle dinosaur.
