Not going again this year. Too broke, and working for UW Housing (or, at least, I hope I am still employed-- I've been away from work due to depression, as it turns out, for about 3 weeks)-- and Housing doesn't allow time off during the end of August, due to students moving in. I need a career change, which might help with the depression, too.

Re: Going, not Going This Year?...
D.A. isn't going to file charges...but unless I hit the lottery...Not going. At least I'm getting out of this damned town. Anyways, all this down time has given me the opportunity to come up with new projects. 
anything worth doing is worth overdoing..
Re: Going, not Going This Year?...
Nope.
Reasons in order
My money and time is pretty much spoken for this year and maybe even next year.
Even if I did want to go tickets are already sold out(I'm not blaming anyone, just stating a fact).
I want to go to some regional stuff on the east coast first as my tastes may have changed since I went to my first burn.

If Neil deGrasse Tyson pulled me off the street to tell me about astronomy that would be awesome. If I was in Amsterdam when this happened and could convince him to tell me about it at a coffeeshop it would be ideal. Just sayin'.
Re: Going, not Going This Year?...
Was going. Art Car registeres, camp registered. Trailer loaded. But...in true Procrastinator form. figured I would get the tix later...Now I am SCREWED. As we used to say (and yes you young punks I am dating myself) I need a miracle..Actually 2!

Re: Going, not Going This Year?...
I will be buying a house this year and I can't be throwing my money around.
Besides, I feel that going to the beach for whatever burn happens there, or making one happen by myself - would be more of an authentic Burning Man experience than buying a BM ticket.

Going. I arrive on the Playa Sunday the 14th. After 23 nights I'll definitely be one with the Playa

Re: Going, not Going This Year?...
I'm not going this year, but am planning for 2012. My first burn was last year and it was great! I live in Georgia and taking enough time off of work and college to drive across country is hard to do. But, I will be living vicariously through those of you going this year.
