Sadly, no. I keep thinking about it, but as this is the longest I've been home in three weeks, there are more pressing matters to deal with.

TPBM enjoys pressing matter.

I did fall asleep last night while watching a video on how to create a coat lining pattern where there is not one...sigh..wish I was more creative so I could just wing it

It may be very cold at night for me on the playa this year. :(

TPBM will throw glowsticks at me to try to make me feel less cold.

we are going to glue magnets to the underside of our little tealight LEDs...maybe if I implant the magnets in the skin then I can get a bit warmer....

AH there is my creativity!

TPBM doesn't understand the love of LED everything...

How are we defining that? I don't think that LEDs are the only worthy lighting solution, but there's plenty of controversy there!
TPBM thinks that eggplants are overrated.

Yes yes I do. My biggest birthday surprise was giving birth to my son on my birthday. Best present I ever got!

I don't not celebrate to stop time...I do it cause I hate planning and the sad expectation/worry that nobody will come cause it's just a birthday party. But I do it on special years like this one. ;-)
