It would be interesting to make a map of the eplaya barflies homes and figure out where the exact physical center of the eplaya was. Interestingly enough I bet it aint too far from the real playa in terms of north-southness. FWIW portland and christ church are nearly exactly on the opposite sides of the world.

i have.

and the nearest center actually inhabited by eplayans seems to be my bedroom...

although joel and bucket do pull things to the right a bit (har har...)

is that due to your magnetic personality?

I confess that I am not the grouchy SOB that some people think I am.

Yep, but sometimes it depends on the violators demeanor then the GSOB can come right on out.

helitack · Post by **helitack** » Wed Dec 22, 2004 2:43 pm

Ooooops, I meant "alleged" violators demeanor.

I confess the notion of getting simultaneous foot and back rubs from two fine men (in a hot tub!) makes me feel very .....warm..... inside.

I confess that I can't wait to see guys in kilts, gogles, and dust again

I confess that I lost a lot of shit.. you win some you lose some..
I figure I won a lot so.. fuck it

I confess that I sometimes try to make light of situations that are better off left in darkness.

I further confess that when you think you are digging a well, and you reach bedrock, you'd better put down the shovel and start practicing some wicked effective alchemy if you expect that bedrock to metastisize into a more soluble substance, such at that ever-desirable watertable, otherwise you are probably digging your own grave.

I confess I need a thourough feather-smoothing right about now.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 9:59 am

I confess that I am completely drunk right now.

I confess that tequila shots last night may have bee a bad idea.

I confess that I DID manage to find my charge-card, which I thought I left at the bar... this is a good thing... however, I further confess that I haven't found a receipt from the bar... which is a bad thing (how many tequila shots did I buy???)

I confess that I have put a sign on the door to my store saying "closed for inventory"... I further confess that I have yet to do an inventory at this store...

I confess that I am also weepy and mopey, and that the littlest things make me cry right now...

Ugh. I confess that I can't wait unti my ingrate gets here so I can go home....

Rian Jackson · Post by **Rian Jackson** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 10:03 am

i confess that giving obligation presents or occasion presents makes me feel funny.

i confess that giving 'just-cause-you're-swell' gifts makes me wanna dance.

gigglesnort · Post by **gigglesnort** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 10:20 am

I confess I researched airplane tickets for new years, not that it would have mattered even if they weren't outrageously expensive, broke as I am. (Are there really people in this world who pay$2000-plus for a plane ticket?)

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 6:59 pm

I confess that it makes me tremendously sad to see people I love not getting the support and love from others that they deserve.

gigglesnort · Post by **gigglesnort** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 8:39 pm

I confess that I was a bit sad thinking I wasn't getting support I thought I needed adn deserved (from hte beau); going through that big sickness all alone, and yesterday thinking about having no one to call on if we had gotten in a bad spot driving in the snow.

But the more I've thought on it, I appreciate him leaving me on my own, as I've found out (again) I'm capable of doing it wo any man's help. That's a brave gift to give, adn new territory for me....allowing your beloved not to need you.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 8:41 pm

I confess that it really makes me happy to hear you say that, giggles...

regynalonglank · Post by **regynalonglank** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 9:30 pm

i confess that now i have spun fire i want to do it everywhere all the time and never stop! there is nothing like that sound...mesmerizing.

gigglesnort · Post by **gigglesnort** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 9:34 pm

I confess my girlfriend in Boulder spins fire, but I've not ever seen her do it [sad face]. I've seen her spin all other gizmos, but there was always a pesky fire ban on in the city when I was there.

I confess the couple times I tried to spin her poi (?) I hit myself in the head with them.

regynalonglank · Post by **regynalonglank** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 9:50 pm

LOL! i confess that i hit myself all over the place, and now have bruises to show for it...but i confess that i just don't care! last night was my first time, and as soon as they lit me up i just started to grin and grin...

Sandwichman · Post by **Sandwichman** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 11:12 pm

My confession is simple.

I confess I have been a miserable bastard and inflicted it on all people around me pushing all those who care further away. I further confess this is a pattern I am starting to see in my life. I further confess I truly appreciate all of you and the way you sometimes kick me in the ass when I need it. I further confess I feel it easier to chase away friends then face the fact that they may drift away from me in the future.

i hear your confession, and i hereby absolve you of the need to posess. you may now go out and simply enjoy. as you were...can i get a witness!

tonytohono · Post by **tonytohono** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 11:18 pm

Hear hear. I'll attest to that.

regynalonglank · Post by **regynalonglank** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 11:23 pm

testify, brother man, testify!

tonytohono · Post by **tonytohono** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 11:39 pm

I must confess that I am not comfortable with that word testify, or the word subpoena, or especially when the two words are combined and printed on paper with the date January 11.

Next time I see someone starting a fire in the middle of summer maybe I should keep driving instead of taking pictures.

geekster · Post by **geekster** » Thu Dec 23, 2004 11:52 pm

I confess that I let the feelings of others, or maybe better, my impression of the feelings of others, determine my actions to the point where I am disappointed and frustrated in my own limiting and sacrificing of my own needs and desires. It wouldn't be so bad except when it seems the sacrifice is unrecognized or taken for granted.

I resolve that in 2005 I will try to take less ownership of the feelings of others and take full ownership of my own.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Fri Dec 24, 2004 7:06 am

sound like the beginnings of a resolution thread, geekie...

I confess that I now know why the poets do what they do. the need to express something in words that is beautiful beyond words in a daunting task. Only until you've felt the beautiful beyond words can you truly apprecaite the difficulty of their plight.

I further confess that I have, more than once, been called a sappy little girl. And I confess that I don't give a good goddamn!

Lydia Love · Post by **Lydia Love** » Fri Dec 24, 2004 9:52 am

I confess I still need to work on my coping mechanisms.

I confess that I have gotten really good at rejecting you before you have a chance to reject me.

I like the way the dress brings out the red in Rian's eyes.

Boy, do I feel stupid.

I confess that for the last year on eplaya, and not ever having the pleasure of meeting this obviously wonderful person in person, I thought Rian Jackson was a guy. I further confess that I am embarrassed at myself because I didn't know Rian was a girl's name (me being the Aunt of a nephew named Ryan). Rian, please forgive me.

Confessions.

I confess...
