Oh, I KNOW it will be better next year! In '04 I was in Drama Camp. 05 will be a LOT better.

2005 will be amazing for so many reasons!

*I was dissapointed at my lack of involvement with the community in 2004, so I decided to Ranger in 2005 (if they let me hehe).

*Our camp has tons of plans to improve our setup for next year, many of which are already in the works.

*My dear friend (a free spirit who was made for the playa) has finally agreed to go with me next year!

*And best of all I am in the midst of "Project Goddess" - to get in shape mentally and physically before hitting the Playa. The Muse is gonna rock the playa with her sexy baddass self in '05. Beware!
Living on Earth is expensive, but it does include a free trip around the sun every year.

Yeeeah! That's what I'm talking about! Be on the lookout for camp "Humpin' the Line"/"F--- Your Couch" (the name is thus undecided)!

...because I'll have a better shade structure/social area for the camp (and hopefully be camped with a lot more people.
The easy up shade structures are done. Next time it's 2 10'X20' car ports w/ decorative side panels to protect against wind.
And hopefully a fire cannon!

First purchase for next year

Post by bigpurple » Tue Oct 05, 2004 7:37 pm

Next year will be better. I just made my first purchases towards an art project for next year's camp. I am already counting down the days.

I am going to have to work hard to make my next year better than the last. I plan to pour a lot of time into a project. This project will make it possible to meet more people and exchange artistic ideas. Along with having a hell of a lot of fun.

well, I need to be responsible for my own orgasm out there. So, if I can't work it out then I will need to terminate my burning manness.

Next year will be better for Bitterman because I pledge to NOT focus on the yahoos, spring breakers, gawkers, gapers, tourists and the non-responsibilitarians! I will hate LESS in 2005!

I here do decree to myself to ONLY focus on pranksters, hipsters, burners, drugies, drunks, hop heads, artists, dancers, muscians, hippies, ravers, partiers, beautiful people, uglee people, desert rats, locals, cops, robots, mad scientists, fire people, glowee peoeple, angels, deamons, aliens, surlee coffee dispensers, acrobats, inventors, rocketship pilots, nekid people, and the DPW!!! I will love you all MORE in 2005!
Bah! Psshhh!

will wear more costumes ( or nothing at all)

Mars,

I don't know what the hell is wrong with me. I lived in Santa Claz for 5 years...how could I forget the mermaids and mermen?...I guess my re-introduction to my high desert habitat has shriveled my reptilian brain.
I have forgotten all things watery and foggy. Damn...so long ago...it's like it's on the tip o' my tounge...

hoodie...stocking cap...skate board...brah...
Bah! Psshhh!

Hmmm. This is getting stagnant.

As said, keep an eye out for camp "F*ck your Couch!"
On the docket is a phatty burn plate for heat/barbecue (mmmm,... barbeque) so for any who want to, BRING MEAT! Also smores. In addition there'll be a (hopefully not too) cheap sound system for music, as well as various instruments/drums for those who like to play. Good company, plenty of green 'vegetables' ^_~ for those like minded (er, half minded?), and drink - nothing compared to the bars, but there should be a good amount of drink. Oh yeah, and the return of the 5-gallon kool aid bottle!

Durrr, I almost forgot.

Lightsabre duels! My associates and I have crafted duelable lightsabres!! Some may have seen them this year, and granted one of them broke (~_~) but the design has been perfected, and there will be more!!

Just getting into a better headspace next year will make it that much better. :wink:
And in time we will all burn and become a new.

Yeah... put TEN new tire$ on my BM truck/trailer this year... (and poli$hed aluminum wheel$ while at it)... Does feel good when you're that far in the middle of nowhere!
Next year will be fun, I have a very radical new mutant vehicle planned.
You'll have to wear a five-point harness while in it... in order to stay in it...

And the boat will be back, too.

It certainly will be for me. Took the wrong person (though she does want to go again and we're actually talking and hanging out again after so many weeks). I'm never flying in again. What a pain.

I'm having a great post-burning man experience, though. Met a bunch of people there who I've communicated with here and I'm making necklaces out of the black rocks I picked up (PM me if you want one).
It's what you make it.
