I don't feel like working, wanna be at Burning Man

Post by Rice » Sun Jul 27, 2014 2:57 pm

Yes, it is that time. The countdown to the burn is getting small, only 18 days till my feet hit the dust...

Work is just a distraction that is preventing me from thinking about the burn.

Ticket and transportation are sorted out. Most of my volunteer shifts have been confirmed.

The packing list is still a bit large, but getting refined and optimized. My Reno shopping list is still excessive - that budget is getting sorted out.

Excitement is building. Craving the heat, dust, fire and family that I only get on-playa.
Love Rice

Me too!
I rage from terrified that something will come up that prevents me from going (again !!! ),
To being furious that TTITD is taking up so much of my time, so much space in the dining room, so much planning...

Typically OCD, i suppose... :(

I just counted - I only have eleven days of work left!

PS: Rice, we should go for a drink sometime before we leave. It would be fun.
