Hey that reminds me, I need to remind myself to call the cc companies on the morning of departure day to let 'em know about the trip. On one hand it's annoying that they're so twitchy about unusual activity these days, but on the other hand I appreciate that we haven't had any bad guys breaking in ...

Afternoon Bar.... I made it. I made it through my last afternoon at work and actually didn't kill anyone, didn't quit my job, didn't piss off a client, and managed to avoid the CEO's always-at-the-last-minute stupid hairball idea. I made it out intact, am feeling the tug of playa time, and wait, is...

Morning Bar This week was a total train wreck and I lost so much momentum. Hoping for a mental and physical re-start this weekend. My countdown is now at 2 weeks before departure so its game-on now! I need to rehearse putting up my Monkey Hut one more time before packing it up for travel and get mo...

No sooner did I post my question and an email arrived.

Can't wait to see you all! It's been two years! Unfortunately,my sister Martiansky isn't making it this year. :( Since I'm coming from Minnesota, prepared food isn't easy for me to bring...but chips, crackers, canned stuff or of course alcohol is manageable. Any requests or ideas? And I'll gladly he...

Madgirl wrote:*raises hand* Self-admitted sticker whore here. Definitely bring some!

Me, too! Me, too!

I was shocked I got OMG tickets. I had to refresh my page and then got in.

Does anyone know when they're being mailed out?

I do colorful braided extensions. Love it. Your colorful braids are super gorgeous. :) I couldn't go last year, but I'm still trying to go this year. This is the first year I'll have long hair. Yikes. Was thinking basic ponytails and hats. In years past, I've always brushed my hair out thoroughly e...

It was fantastic!
Thanks for the footage, from another Minnesotan (living vicariously through this).

I have one by a company called Fat boy.
My problem was getting the chambers filled especially because I'm short. But I'm thinking with the Playa winds it might be considerably easier?

Got home on Friday after a rather exciting few days. Seems I had a heart attack sometime on Tuesday/Wednesday morning. Got my self down to the Medical station and was first met by an ER doc from UCSF. He quickly escorted me to the serious tent a few feet away and before I knew it I had 2 EKGs and w...

I had the same thought....BMIR as sound and/or someone just occasionally narrating?

Awesome! Thanks for the info, AntiM!!

I switched to plain sneakers. This year I'm going to PAINT them! Careful - the areas you paint become sealed (this includes acrylic, spray paint, and oil paint). If you're just doing some swirlies or stuff you should be fine, but if you paint the whole shoe you've just made them little acrylic oven...

I'm a costume person. 365-24-7. I can guarantee that you won't wear everything you bring. Do not spend a butt-load of money on playa clothes. You will be hot. Step outside your comfort zone and wear less than usual. You will be cold. Your costume at night will be your coat. Bring some comfortable a...

1) My most comfortable clothes out there consisted of cotton leggings, long flowing skirts, and sarongs. I found out the hard way that things that were too binding or had a scratchy fabric drove me crazy (especially in the heat) and I was ripping them off of me in no time. 2) I brought mid-calf com...

I won't be joining them -- or any of you -- this year.

...Looks like uneven years only is establishing itself as a trend here.

I was afraid I'd have to endure a five hour wait like my sister (Martiansky) did last year....but nope....12 minutes.

We're set with tickets and passes!

yay!!!

I hope not!
