Too funny.. I was watching TV the other night (a rarity, I don't have TV, was at a friend's house).. and saw a mini-show/Ad for a cooking show, and the dude was demonstrating how to make mojitos!

One of my fav summer drinks is minted lemonade.. yummy :)

I'm good, getting all excited about summer and Burning Man, got some kewl sari fabric for a skirt to wear around the playa tonight... but heading for bed soon, gotta teach a knitting class tomorrow morn, fun and joy.

Been a good night in the bar? Lots of company for you?

When you rode past me on your bike last year, I didn't recognize you until after you had ridden past. You had me befuddled for just a moment. "wow, who's the babe who knew my name?"
Yes, I bought mine on the first day back in Jan.

Aww, you just called me a babe. When was that? Wednesday? Though I thought it was after the M&G.

I don't know about you, but after a certain point the M&G became quite a blur. I intend not to do that again this year.

Not really. Mostly just Cameo appearances. and I think blue disappeared on me again, too. Was that the thingy on TLC where that guy with the australian accent put chili peppers in the mojito? I forgot to include the club soda in that pic when I took it. Oh well. Chili peppers would be cwierd, though.

That does sound yummy.

I've recently been adding a little pomegranate juice to my lemonade. It makes for a really tasty mixer.

I missed a lot of the beginning, and the quickly became senseless. So only about an hour of it is solid in my memory. antim and larry ditched me, and I fell asleep in camp for a while, giving Msky and Robotland a chance to take an unflattering picture of me snoring. I think it was friday that you rode past me.

Heee, I know the picture of which you speak. At least I was able to take a decent picture of you at the M&G.

Yea, I was just talking to Sensei about how quickly I became senseless as well. Fucker added to my state though by shoving Reindeer Fucker in my face and telling me to try it. Oh, and I blame Tisha for pushing me over the edge with that scotch.

Just thought I'd liven things up a little bit. We've got a lot of pages without a large explosion in the bar.

Unfortunately there have only been five seeders at most for this file. And the upload rates have been extremely slow.

I'll try, but I'm not sure exactly how I'm supposed to go about it.

Good night RG. It's nice to see you around again.

I might have some supplies for the art project. Especially if I take a passenger. This would be Berkeley. I don't know where you set out from, but I could possibly drop off prior too.
And hand ya $50 for gas.

How lucky I am to find you here.
Our camp is bring 12 different sorts of Norwegian coffee to the playa.
Are you interested in that?

Not a classic migraine either. I just get the visual distortions and then I feel blah for a couple of days.
No auras, but headache and nausea. I used to have the noise sensitivity and light sensitivity but that's gone. Definately related to not eating, but could be other triggers I've never worked out.
