The person below me

OregonRed · Post by **OregonRed** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 1:42 am

Well, yes... But aren't we all?

TPBM is wondering who the hell I am.

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 2:06 pm

No, because I know that you're that nice lady who washed my hair last year.

TPBM wants to know how to sign up for these wonderful shampoo-ings.

true, true, please tell us!

TPBM knows how to get massages at BM

Post by **mdmf007** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 4:07 pm

My buddy and I were exhausted from working at BM 2007 - We proceeded to get trashed off shift and had a blast to the point of falling asleep on some benches. I woke up in the morning stripped down to my boxers with all of my clothes folded neatly beside me on a chair. I was laying on a massage table (the bench), where I suspect I slept and was awaken by several lovely ladies massaging my legs, back and shoulders. My buddy was facing me on another table, and was awoken in the same manner with a 12 inch grin.

Thats how you get a free massage - completely random, gifted, and so appreciated even now.

The person below me is still cleaning playa dust out of the car they brought to BM, even though they were warned about bringing their "daily driver" playside!!!!!!!!!

OnceTheDustClears · Post by **OnceTheDustClears** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 7:38 pm

True. The dust never comes out...completely.

TPBM left dust on lots of things because they like it that way.

True! All I gotta do is take a big ol' whiff of my gear, and it's like I'm home again

I actually had a dream last night that I was packing for the Playa, running my fingers through the dust coating...

TPBM will visit the Playa in their dreams tonight

OnceTheDustClears · Post by **OnceTheDustClears** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 8:04 pm

I hope that's true.

TPBM is already planning some new playa wear.

Post by **mdmf007** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 9:32 pm

Planning new playa wear? I was planning that as I drove home from BM last year!

But, TPBM barfs every year at BM on things that are not theirs

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 11:09 pm

Not true...

I have never barfed at Burning Man. In fact, with the exception of having food poisoning on New Year's Eve 07, I haven't barfed in a many many years.

The Person Below Me wishes they could stop their nervous ticccck.

Naw, I take Prozac for that! (I had undiagnosed OCD as a kid and still have it to some degree, and take generic Prozac for both it and depression.)

TPBM is probably going to call in sick today and IS me!

BAS · Post by **BAS** » Sat Feb 21, 2009 11:02 am

Well, that is true. I've got a headache and felt dizzy getting up. I kind of feel bad doing that to my co-worker since we are short handed. (Our student worker was cut from the budget and our supervisor retired at the same time.)

TPBM doesn't have to work weekends (the lucky &*^%!)

Sail Man · Post by **Sail Man** » Sat Feb 21, 2009 2:54 pm

Dont I wish! I work every other weekend, currently on-duty but off next week for my usual 4 day week-end.

TPBM has never worked a 12 hr day.

littleflower · Post by **littleflower** » Sat Feb 21, 2009 3:41 pm

true! and i think a few circuits would blow if i did.

TPBM needs less than 5 hours sleep at night

OnceTheDustClears · Post by **OnceTheDustClears** » Sat Feb 21, 2009 3:59 pm

No...about 6...but I sure would like 7 or 8.

TPBM's favorite color is black.

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Sun Feb 22, 2009 7:40 pm

No. It's probably green, but it might be purple, and there's something to be said for greys and the peachy-apricot range and alizarin crimson and coppery red and virdigris, but that's back at green again.

TPBM knows the origin of the term alizarin.

OnceTheDustClears · Post by **OnceTheDustClears** » Sun Feb 22, 2009 9:26 pm

That's what google is for.
Though I have dabbled in some paints myself.

TPBM paints bodies instead of canvas.

ygmir · Post by **ygmir** » Sun Feb 22, 2009 9:31 pm

true, but, usually only with my tongue............

TPBM loves fried spaghetti

BAS · Post by **BAS** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 10:53 am

Keep your fetishes to yourself!

(More seriously, I've never tried it-- and have the feeling my doctor would tell me to "just say no!")

TPBM hangs out on a fetish forum under an alias!

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 6:50 pm

No.

TPBM knows how many of California's 58 counties have Spanish names.

littleflower · Post by **littleflower** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 7:30 pm

false.

TPBM is wondering whether fishy has an amazing memory, or is really really bored, or both...

Post by **mdmf007** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 9:13 pm

I stopped wondering about Fishy a log time ago - She is a prolific writer on a few sites.

Did you know TPBM always brings too much food to the playa?

BAS · Post by **BAS** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 1:02 am

No, I didn't know that!

TPBM wonders what the greenish-blue thing in the back of their refrigerator is, or was.

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 10:46 am

Nope. It's a teal teal.

TPBM can build a mean house of cards.

Post by **mdmf007** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 1:17 pm

I build the best houses out of cards! are you spying on me?

TPBM, gets sea sick, car sick and airplane sick.

BAS · Post by **BAS** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 1:43 pm

Well, I used to get motion sick really easily as a kid; however, that is one of the few things which has improved with age! (Although I still stay away from those roller coasters which turn you upside and throw you around in general.) ...I don't recall of ever getting airplane sick-- of course, it has been something like 35 years since I was last on an air born aircraft.

TPBM has been on every single continent on Earth!

OnceTheDustClears · Post by **OnceTheDustClears** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 1:46 pm

Well yes...all except Antarctica.

TPBM has been to Antarctica.

BAS · Post by **BAS** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 2:05 pm

No, but a guy I knew went there twice as a grad student! He said it was weird when he got back and the sun set, since way down below it was sunny 24 hours a day. (BTW, I am envious of anyone who has got to see so much of the world..., I've never been able to afford that or find anyone who would pay my way.

)

TPBM wants to see Antarctica!

OnceTheDustClears · Post by **OnceTheDustClears** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 2:10 pm

Yes I do.
It's the last one on the list.

TPBM wants to see the playa for the first time.

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 7:22 pm

Too late.

TPBM longs for a house on the northern California shore.

SilverOrange · Post by **SilverOrange** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 8:34 pm

Actually I just moved out of a house on the Northern California shore...

and now live in a place that's gotten over 100 inches of snow this winter, so yes I do long for it (again).

TPBM loves the snow
