Every time I walk my dog is an outdoor adventure.

TPBM lives in a rural area but loves visiting the big city on weekends.

I live in a big(ish) city and visit a rural area ... once a year. When it turns into a big(ish) city. :shock:

Yep. Sent them a "wish you were here" post card from the islands.

TPBM has thought of taking a south seas cruise during the winter months.

I get every Sunday off, Saturday about every 6 weeks. Traded my last two Saturdays off for work so others who needed to be off could.

TPBM can function well with four hours sleep.

For a few days in a row, After about the 4th or 5th day my body refuses to get up.

TPBM wishes they didn't need sleep at all.

Morning , noon and night, and any time in between.

TPBM seems to be following me right now on e-playa, or is it just my sleepless mind playing tricks?

You're apparently heading out a week earlier than me, I don't head out until the 28th. Still calm.




tpbm stays calm until about 3 days before they leave for the Burn.

I typically stay calm till the point that I'm too far to turn around. That's the point that everything I forgot suddenly pops into my head. Yay Fernley wally world.

TPBM still needs a few major things.

nothing major. But then I've been working on this for months, pacing myself very sparsely. Unemployment makes the number of available hours excruciatingly numerous.
TPBM has multiple lists going now.

Maybe. None burn related, however.
If the person below me ever set up a 503(1)(c) it would be arts related.

Done it. Twice. heartbreaking experiences, both. The third (current) one was 20 years in the making; it crept up on me. Much better.

TPBM has NO playa plans.

Once the gates open, I only have one plan, Irish Car Bomb Thursday at Camp Hot Mayo. Other than that, explore and say YES!

yep. Pretty much clammed up and didn't respond because I didn't want to be honest with them - then time took over and the friendship faded away. Have also had friendships dissolve by BEING honest. A true friendship is something very valuable.

tpbm knows a way to keep my stupid fat hand off the picture when i'm painting. I can't hold it up for extended periods (arthritis)

I always feel correct until someone doesn't believe me, then I google to check.

TPBM has found a new favorite band recently.

Actually I love medieval polyphony & chants, so I can't say I don't love vocal music. I'm not as into it as a schtick however...

Yep. Renaissance vocal music (and medieval polyphony) and pibroch.
(I wish we'd had the opportunity to sing for you in the dust, Eric)

TPBM needs electro beats to feel the yummm.
