BRING THE SANTASUIT, MOONRISE!!!
Yeah, all caps. Look up Eggs Bar, they'll be doing a Santarchy night on the playa, in honor of the first ever Burning Man theme camp. If there's ever been a reason to have a Santa Suit, that will be it.

I figured it was best to be prepared in case i have an urge to listen to the voices in my head and kill stupid people.
berkowitz had a dog.

i gotta go, i cant type, he's watching.

Thorazine, ugh. I can drool right here in my own backyard.
Ordered the new brake and shifter cables for the Rhoadescar. For something that's only used a few times a year, that thing takes a beating.

Re: One Item for BM a Day
Wow tattoogoddess, your food prep looks great!
Head meds...those of us on them probably need to keep on them even though schedules are upsidedown on Playa.
Yesterday, bought 36 feet of LED tube lights for camp.

Re: One Item for BM a Day
Built a Monkey hut today and set up my tent to prepare for a lot more dust than last year. But I need to make the hut taller so it doesn't rub on the tent and keep me up in winds.
The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.

Sewing, sewing, sewing...oh and SEWING! Almost done with costume #4 of 10. Stupidly added another sewing project to my list, we'll see if I can squeeze it in.
Got hair chopped off for Playa heat...now need to re-purple.

Attempted to block all vents in my dust goggles with wood glue. Hope that stands up to the playa.

Re: One Item for BM a Day
today was my big inventory check/planning day for camp kitchen
I stocked up on some 5 Hour Energy for personal use
made my (hopefully!) last costume-related purchase
Tomorrow I'm banishing myself to the basement & shackling myself to the sewing machine to finish costume projects.

Re: One Item for BM a Day
Not that I'm aware of, no. This is something special for Fertility 2.0, my understanding is it involves some of the folks from the original first theme camp/cacaphony society people (who were also responsible for starting the whole santarchy/santacon thing in defaultia).wh..sh wrote:Last year, I met some people coming back from Santa party.

This thread is both inspiring and makes me feel like a slacker! Finally some accomplishments. Yesterday we put together the hexagon gazebo that will house the market and it looks good. Still working on how to anchor it. This morning I raised the tent trailer so it can air out and get loaded up. I also have demooped most of the inventory for the market! Yay we're going to the Playa!

We picked up some of the booze a little while ago, but are about to make the transition from hardware and art supply mode to food and dink mode in the shopping department.

We picked up juice and stuff from Costco and packed the food boxes. Only need a few items from the commissary and the chilled food. We're over-prepared on food, as usual. No steaks though. Never did like taking raw meat to the playa. Larry is outside fussing with something or other.
