not much of a beer drinker. I am however thinking about a sip of Single Malt.

tpbm would rather be sober than drink beer

One thing working full-time and college full-time taught me is, once sleep is lost it can never be found. For the eleven days on the playa, I guess I slept maybe 35 hours total.

TPBM MUST HAVE 8 hours sleep per day/night to keep sane.

The career ladder back to a job. Which is sadly off track due to a fractured rib. Dammit.

TpAm provides a great example of that which they refer.

Yes. 7-10 days is simply not long enough to get to know someone's idiosyncracies. And that's the good stuff!

TPBM is fantasizing about a fellow eplayan right now.

I think we should be scattered like we are now. Just like orange juice, some things aren't as good concentrated.

Hugging bums is in TPBM's normal routine.
If cocaine were legal, would they sell it in little packages like Sweet N' Low? Would they call it Sweet N' High?

If you mean unsure about having an ePlaya camp, you betcha. Last time we did that we had 2 results - one was a major fuckfest full of drama, the other was the beginning of the best bar on the playa, and enough people and camps to make a village. ;) Yeah, we remember! Tho we'd love to see it happen again, now that said awesome bar has shuttered itself!

TPBM brags about thier BRC invovlement to the normies at work, and they almost understand...

My involvement is pretty nonexistent at this time. I would like to change that though.

For sure. I thought I could recycle my playa Tron robe but I did such bad sewing work and the playa melted the gorilla glue that attached the light to the velcro so badly that I threw the entire thing (minus the expensive light tape!) away

TPBM doesn't believe in dressing up for Halloween. :shock:

Well put it this way,,, I (ntek) wore high heels and a slip to the party last year and was scolded for not wearing a costume,,,, Thinking I just might wear my work clothes this year and nobody will recognize me.
