The person below me

[BeeWeeDee]

Thats true. Not sure what I am going to try this year. But I am getting a lot of small canvases painted for the Home FWA.

TPBM is anxious to know the theme for 2014 so they can ignore it again.

[theCryptofishist]

Knowing I'm not going makes me really indifferent to the theme.
tpbm thinks the theme will be uplifting.

[Eric]

I think the theme will be more clunky Larrybabble spun off from some poor, blameless words



tpbm doesn't have any formal-wear for tonight that hasn't already been to the playa

[Simon of the Playa]

nope, i just bought a new suit from st matthews closet, a catholic thrift store....black wool, 3 button....Ralph Lifshitz, i mean Lauren

$3.00

tpbm is a label bitch too

[Thecatman]

Yep! Especially when I try to find labels that say Made in USA/America and ingredients that don't include high fructose corn syrup or sugar, except maybe natural occurring sugar.


tpbm is hitting the sack around 8:30 tonight and sleeping in as late as they can tomorrow......like I am.

[theCryptofishist]

I've got to stay up to at least 8:45.
tpbm is going to be shitfaced for the next two days.

[FossaFerox]

I've got to stay up to at least 8:45.
tpbm is going to be shitfaced for the next two days.

I went through December sober, mostly to prove that I could. During the month I failed to get a promotion I was assured was mine, a good friend accepted a job across the country, and my girlfriend of four years left me. When the clock strikes midnight, well, two days seems like a safe bet.

TPBM has a real resolution for 2014.

[ranger magnum]

I dont make resolutions. If I have a great idea, or something that I should do, I implement it immediately. No sense in waiting for new years....
Tpbm had a great year, and feels 2014 will be an extension of their success...

[Eric]

Had a pretty damn good year, and if the last few days are any indication I should have a great one this year.



tpbm went out last night but doesn't have a hangover today.

[Elorrum]

I stayed in, no hangover. I could have stayed up late, but didn't and then slept and dozed a long time, which was nice. Work today was an incredibly long day.
tpbm feels that things are finally back on track.

[MikeGyver]

As long as the buyer for my car doesn't fall through things will be back on track.
TPBM wants a new toy

[theCryptofishist]

Maybe...
tpbm is looking for the perfect gin.

[Savannah]

Nah . . . I found one good gin at the Burn in 2011 when Westnileraven served me icy cold Hendrick's and ginger ale . . . well, it tasted like light, clean rosy ambrosia, and while maybe a large part of it was just great company and a beautiful day, but it was more than I thought possible from a gin, so I don't need to look any further.

The person below me has a new game.

[theCryptofishist]

No, but I am casting longing glances at Cards Against Humanity. But that's not a solitaire...
tpbm figures you might as well cheat at solitaire, because a good shuffle takes a while and you don't have to count it on your win record--once you cheat it becomes practice.

[Box Burner]

You might as well cheat. When you pick up that cards as most people do when returning them to the deck the average shuffle will still leave them coming off the deck in the reverse order that you need them.


TPBM has played a series of 50 games of free cell without losing once. Without cheating.

[ranger magnum]

What is that?

Tpbm is looking forward to some home projects

[fernley1]

Yes, now that the new year is here, I have lots of home projects to do.

TPBM is looking forward to starting 2014 burning man projects.

[BeeWeeDee]

Actually I started my projects about 3 months ago. Bad paintings for Anti M's home for wayward art.

TPBM is as worried as I am about getting a ticket for TTITD before getting too heavily into the art projects.

[theCryptofishist]

Nope. I get to laugh at all that. I have been liberated from the event.
the person below me has never crossed the continental divide.

[VultureChow]

Nope, but I did pee on it. The people I was traveling with thought I was crazy. But they probably already thought that.

TPBM has never played in the snow.

[theCryptofishist]

Not much. I'm from the temperate part of California.
TPBM has his/her ticket nest egg all ready...

[fernley1]

Yes I do. I sold some stuff that I don't need on a online auction site and have my ticket money ready.
Cant wait for my 2nd year.

TPBM hopes that ticket info is out soon.

[theCryptofishist]

I don't care much. Really.
tpbm has witnessed brutal, playa-based infighting.

[BeeWeeDee]

Just that I observed at the Meet & Greet whenever a non e-playan tried to get in.

TPBM enjoys the "palace intrigue" and "office politics" in their job

[Popeye]

Not at all and a major reason I quit.

TPBM knows what Laphroaig is and enjoys it.

[Eric]

Like both the 10yo & the 18, have had the 25yo once & loved it. Still, of the Islay's I prefer Lagavulin.


tpbm gives side-eye to people who put ice cubes in single-malt (and won't share with them).

[MikeGyver]

Doesnt matter what you put in your alcohol, as long as you share.

TPBM doesn't like sharing

[theCryptofishist]

How the fuck am I supposed to answer that?
tpbm has never been to Atlanta, Georgia.

[ranger magnum]

I have not been to Atlanta. No real desire to either.
Tpbm ate too much at dinner

[Popeye]

At Christmas and again at New Years, Chicken and rice tonight.

TPBM is enjoying the changes that the cold weather has brought.
