I am I am!!!!

Wow what a crazy 36 hours.....


First off I introduce to you LEGAL SPEED!
Image


And Im not just being funny.....
I took me back to a feeling of 20 yrs ago...not being younger,... being dumber!! with my choices in party'ables.
hint hint,Nudge nudge, wink wink, if ya know what I mean...Pictures???

I got my entire workshop cleaned in 1.5 days ...usually takes me 4 full days!
I also got a very complex costume designed and half sewn.
I would say the most complex costume Ive ever made! From scratch.
Titwi shall be wearing it on Furry night (wed.)!


yeah, so all I have to say is be very careful with the above mentioned
"energy drink"...It has similar side effects to the real maccoy.

Titwi said I was just spinning sideways on the walls...had 3 major projects going on all at the same time, plus running outside to help him line up trucks to trailer!

WOOO hOOOO

I want to drink another one,(yes 9 more days of stuff to do in 5.5 days, but I think I will give my body 2 full days to recover!

Going to have to see if I can find a few cans of that stuff on my way into the playa PM. Sounds like the way I like to feel!

Wow, I just lost a whole day somewhere. It's Friday now and I don't remember what happened on Thursday. But someone came here and got a lot of work done! The laundry and costumes all done. Packing of clothes done, trailer cleaned and ready!

Got the printing order in and pick it up on Friday. Look for something NEW and special in your local blue house this year. In honour of Caleb's memory we created a mental health survival guide with the Green Dots and now there is a sticker ready for every porta potty in BRC.

IF you want to help put them up in your local bank of potties, we're meeting at the Black Rock Beacon camp at 6PM on Monday to swarm the city. Extra help always welcome.

guess I had one of Piney's drinks without knowing it.

Good morning, campers. It's time to get ready!

Oh and just to explain that porta potty project. I swore to Caleb over his dead body that I would make only good come from this horror. That's what that's all about. 'Course then I swore at him too. The fucker.

This week I have endured more than 20 emails that include death threats if i DARE to come to Black Rock City. Too bad some of Caleb's friends can't get over this. I pity them more than anything but damn I wish they could move on.

So I'm asking all my friends to be watching my back. I don't want to die out there 'cause I got stuff to do in this life. And Nobody is going to keep me from going to Black Rock City.

If you don't have anything planned for breakfast on Wednesday morning, I've planned a Breakfast of Mental Health Champions starting at 8AM til the food runs out to be held at Toon Town Disco with Green Dots and LLC invited. We are going to blow mental health stigma outta the water. This breakfast will feature all of the most politically incorrect language about mental health. Call me crazy and come dance with me at the disco.

Okay, I'm off to finish stuff. I may not be online much in the next couple days. So I'm wishing Simon safe journey as he heads out today. I'm wishing all the Early Entry stuff gets sorted out. Then I'm leaving on Monday.

See you in the dust, campers.

uh, hi? Haven't been in this place yet. Kinda shy about barging in. But you see I got burn fever so bad it's all I can talk/think/write about. So I figured I'd come in here, I figure you guys would understand.

One week from tomorrow I am on my way. I'm hyperventilating. Gonna be the best burn ever.

Hey, can someone show me where the coffee is?

Mule, thanks for the coffee. I haven't tried the paper bag yet for hyperventilation, but that's not far in the future at this rate.

That's a good memorial for Caleb; doing something so stupid even he wouldn't have.

:D Okay, who is responsible?

Someone changed their signature in the last little while and darned if I can't find it now, just when I need it.

I'm trying to do an article on viral events that are flying under the radar. There's a bull run on Friday night on BIOLOGY from the man side to the mountain side. And there's a Santarchy - someone here in the bar had the date and time in their sig and now I can't find it.

Anyone know when it is?

Fair trade organic Ethiopian fresh ground coffee today folks! I have it on high authority that this is one of the most prized coffee beans in the world. I have a refugee friend originally from Ethiopia who owns a coffee shop where he sells the beans as well. One of my most favourite places to visit.

Pinegranny, I've looked everywhere for Red Line Extreme. Finally one store clerk said stop looking its not legal in Canada! Just saying - given your recent health scare...take it easy for all of us. No mainlining, eh?

Two days to go for me. Hope Simon is safe on the road, we had some tornadoes rip through nearby yesterday and they came up to Ontario from across his path. :shock:
