[ygmir]

Trifecta!! I had just gone to their website, for the store about 30 miles from here, to see what they have.
Thanks so much, you two are the greatest!

[jella]

I love it when a plan comes together Yggy

Weeeee 10 days ...ten measly days seperates me from the Playa rain or no rain here I come !!

[magicmarty]

Week from tomorrow we hit the road for BRC. Will be working the ARTery on Saturday and Sunday and hope some of you stop by. Camping in Hushville on E at about 5:10 and look forward to seeing you all! (((Jella)))

[Jovankat]

Oh God I've been distracted by the wonder that is New York for the past few days and now there are SO VERY MANY unread posts it's a little overwhelming

But the good news is the shirt I ordered especially for the meet and greet had arrived when I got back to Berkeley

[Sunbeam56]

I wish I was panicking about packing... haven't gotten that far. Still three major deadlines in the next two days...
Ugh.
Then I can panick.
In the meantime - there is a beverage I am looking for... hmmm....

[trilobyte]

I don't recall who was wondering about the webcam... but I've just heard from the folks in Gerlach. They know the screen could use a good cleaning (after all the droplets and dust), but doing that requires heavy equipment and right now that team is focused on other things. When they get a chance, they'll give it some TLC.

In the meantime, damn, another busy day. I'm a dozen projects into the day, but still have a couple more things to finish up. Time for a refill, and then back to work!

[FossaFerox]

Fuck, projects. I have so many to finish but all I can focus on is this job interview tomorrow *checks clock* ...later today.

[ygmir]

*wanders in, makes CCC*
yes, the panic..........and then out of the blue, "more things"........egad........(insert maniacal laughter).

[Aurelia]

OMG !
every year I say "no problem'"""" and then it gets wild

need a ...

xoA.

[MyDearFriend]

Panic panic!!! But things are finally getting finished. Yikes.

Yay Jovankat you got your shirt for the M&G!!! The skirt I planned for the M&G remains imaginary and the fabric for that has gone into the "next year" pile.

And thanks for checking on the webcam, Trilo! Imagine... the heavy equipment team is busy doing something else right now???!!!

Good luck getting your fire truck parts, (((Yggy))).

(((JELLA))) can't wait to see you!!!

(((Marty)))

((((LCN)))) hoping all is well and you have more play time before you head back to Kentucky!!!

[magicmarty]

Morning MDF, YG and all the ships at sea. On the road to BRC in exactly one week!!!

Cheers

(((LF))) won't be long now.

[jella]

Panic...who iso panicking....oh just me still hunting cleaning and packing all the things....you should see my clothes line...ohhh myyyy.

[Elliot]

I just loaded the refrigerator on the trailer. At this rate, I will be ready to roll a couple days early.

Of course, that's after I cancelled rather a lot of Stuff I wanted to bring. But the sensation of being ahead of schedule is priceless.

[Blueschaser]

All gear shipped out yesterday via UPS (at biz rate---BIG discount!). Will be awaiting us long before our flight arrives week from Sunday. Strange calmness has set in----am sure that will change!

[Aurelia]

Okay , I finally get it !

The excitement is from within ..not about things I still must do .
Although there is that also I will acknowledge

xxooA.

Came in here to say the same thing. All my boxes are on their way. I haven't had a drink in a week, so I'm taking the night off with a nice bottle of wine.

[Elorrum]

work this week has officially kicked my butt. I'm running a temperature, something wasn't washed right, or somebody gave me a bug. Huge project I did all by myself, little pats on my own back, that was big. I'm exhausted, taking the night off, and going to bed soon, after pounding some liquids, some ibuprofen for the aches that will be coming tomorrow.

AIYEEEEEE! I'll do it. I have it all ready in some form or another right now. The rest is the same old icing on the cake that I'll make next year.

[magicmarty]

Hi Elorrum, sorry you are feeling poorly. Take it easy and get lots of rest and plenty of liquids and hopefully you'll be fit as a fiddle for the grand adventure that is the Burn.

Cheers,

[Sunbeam56]

A hot toddy will help her congestion... This is a bar....

[Madgirl]

I was just about to suggest hot toddys all around...

[theCryptofishist]

A baked Pago Pago Octopus?

So, Yggy's going to clean the camera on his way in?

Elorrum--If I had the money, I'd hire you as my very own mad scientist. Then it will turn out that I'm a terrible employer and that it's less fun when it's your vocation rather than your avocation. Tragedy all around, but at least a new tragedy?

[theCryptofishist]

Today's Captain Obvious moment--
Listening to some Soviet bloc song, in a language I don't know, but I do pick up the word "Lenin". All those damn songs were the exact same thing as pep rallies and corporate "team-building" exercises, trying to impose a group identity.

Wassamattah?? Still no water transfer pump?

[theCryptofishist]

[ygmir]

fuck thread......not sure I can write it all again.

[Elliot]

Ah.... Clyde has terminal cancer. I've met Clyde -- terrific dog. Best wishes, Ygmir.

[Madgirl]

Oh Yggy I'm so so sorry. I haven't met you or your dear furry friend but I know how much it hurts to have to make that decision.

[Bin Noddin]

To Clyde and all our faithful friends. (((YG)))
In other news, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and the Maryland Department of the Environment held a joint press conference to announce a new study of declining blue crab populations in the bay. I swear, we had nothing to do with it.
