I now have enough costumes for myself and my daughter for five changes a day for 10 days. Seriously! And I am surrounded by yarn, fabric, etc. and am scurrilously making more and more.

70. If you live in gerlach, its automatic.

71. At Christmas time, you're the only house in the neighborhood that has their mutant vehicle lit up with Christmas lights instead of your house. (Most likely because it hasn't moved since you got back...)

yes, this virgin WILL be attending this year! Am very stoked to finally make it, and the theme this year is remarkable, given that this is the first time I have been out, on my own, without the military or parents. I joined right out of high school, and was in for 8 years. Rites of Passage is just fitting. Not even the Rapture could have kept me this year!!

**sorry, yes, another rapture joke. too late?** xD

84. You see a car with a BRC sticker in the parking lot and you wait around like a demented stalker until the driver comes out just to meet them. That's how I met Harmony and now we're the closest of friends.
