Chakra Cleansing At The Disco


(there do seem to be a lot of dirty chakras at Burning Man. Just saying.)

Out: loneliness

In: meeting new campmates and getting adopted

In 2000, no one really cared who you were or what camp you were a part or where you lived--for the most part anyway. I could just walk away quietly. Part of me feels indebted to the experience and the community though. This is all opinion about how people interact, but people not picking up MOOP or...

Amen!

As we bash virgins, let us all remember that we, each and all, were once virgins too. Thank God for the veteran burners who showed us how it was done. To them, I am grateful even though I am not a birgin. I learn something new each burn from those who have been burning longer than I have. I'm with y...

My highlight was serendipitously camping next to Grateful Floyd and being adopted in. Last year's burn was all about seeing and doing ALL THE THINGS but this year, the group at Grateful Floyd (Greatful Floyd, whichever spelling you prefer) simply made my burn. It was all about the people I met and f...

Having an RV doesn't automatically keep the dust out. I found from experience that not maintaining the seals on one's slide-out room is also a bad idea. Saturday's pre-event Dustpocalypse (I was in an early admission service camp) had dust boiling in around the seals, through the electrical cord (ma...

Found a nice clear quartz crystal pendant around an inch long in the area between G and H right where it meets 6:30.

We leave in the morning for BRC!!! *runs around like a maniac*

FUCK THE FUCKING FUCKERS!!!!

Okay, am I the only one at 11:00PM tonight with a driveway full of crates and supplies trying to organize and pack smartly? Is it time to panic yet? LOL No, you aren't alone with this. I'm still up trying to figure out clothes and food. My RV is mostly packed though. I just have to throw food and c...

We'll be in sometime Wednesday afternoon, I have just been informed by somebody's-dad, aka my husband.

Oh, before I go any further, I'm not actually a mother; I just look like someone's suburban housewife mother. My "babies" are cats, chickens and sheep, not actual children (although there was no lack of trying and I'm okay with my status). I didn't want to deceive anyone into thinking I'm an actual ...

Hola! I'm somebody's mom too! My camp is Dye with Dignity at 7 & G. There's lots of moms here (all ages) and some somebody's too. In fact 2 of my adult somebody's camp with me too. We have a silk scarf dyeing camp and will have a dye day on Monday from 11-3. If you can't make that come by any old a...

Hi, You have so much in common with so many of us. We are somebody's Mom too. To avoid confusion I'll just call you S & M. OK? (kidding) Tell me what your camp looks like and I'll find you while I'm out working in that area. Tent, trailer, carport, vehicle? give me a big clue. I'll be there in a co...

Savannah, I usually get this look when I tell people what I raise my sheep for, which is meat and pelts. Most of them tell me how awful I am while chowing down on the hamburger they just bought...which was essentially raised by farmers such as me. LOL It does make me giggle. Thanks to everyone for t...

Hi folks! This year will be my second burn of hopefully many more to come. I'm hoping we'll meet up with other Burners from WA while we're there. I'm a housewife who also manages a small flock of Katahdin sheep (don't ask and I won't tell) and my husband is a software developer/engineer/wizard-type,...
