Nope. Well, unless you mean in the literal "there's something flying and I don't quite know what it is" sense.

When he puts out his lamp, he sends the flower, or the star, to sleep.

Actually, that's true: I was planning a spontaneous nude Butoh solo performance at the Temple (Butoh is very concerned with life and death), but instead changed it to a small (partly clothed) group performance at a dinner at Camp Contact on Thursday night.

Alas, no. I lost my oral virginity at the tender age of... nevermind. I'll just say that a lover who is a cunning linguist is high on my list.
And I've never had any complaints about my abilities in that department either.
TPBM just had their first honest-to-blog pre-playa FREAKOUT, and is now trying to control the hysterics.

Re: The person below me
I haven't, but I'm sure tempted to. I committed to performing in Renn Faire all this weekend, and to family plans next weekend . . . meaning I've got to be really damned creative with my time at this point.
I don't really have any shopping left to do, but there are some logistical matters and clothes left to work on.
