Re: Time for a Happy Thread
I'll be up front with my leaving on vacation. Hopefully they'll be ok with it! I can hardly wait to see you and delle, and meet your beau! 
Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious.

Thanks Savannah! it's coming in at a good time. Not too long ago I received another call for a 1x housecleaning for next week! Sounds like I'll take a while from the description I got! Boy, when it rains, it pours! The universe is providing!

I happy to see burning man news even if I'm not going yet again. A lot of good stuff happening for me right now so maybe I can get home next year.

Wrapped on the el-wire and rode around the neighborhood last night while also wearing my raver gloves. Considering it is a gated 55 plus neighborhood and I was riding at 11pm there was no one out to see the flashing lights - so there were no 911 calls about UFOs

Maryanimal's post made me happy 
When he lights his streetlamp, it is as if he brought one more star to life, or one flower.
When he puts out his lamp, he sends the flower, or the star, to sleep.
That is a beautiful occupation.

Everything is packed and ready to go except the stuff that goes in the cooler. What am I going to do for the next eight days?

Ride your bike and toughen your butt!
Sleep 8+ hours a night.
Pop vitamins.
Answer questions for ePlaya n00bs (everyone else is off packing . . . being around to answer questions is neat, if you can spare it!)

Living in Nevada I definitely hydrate - minimum of 2 quarts a day. I've been riding my bike a couple miles daily but I have no butt to toughen - at least I've been told I have no butt. I average just over 7 hours of sleep getting to bed about 11:30 and getting up just past 7am. I take a multi vitamin every morning. I try to answer questions as I spot the ones I think I know something about. Right now my time is being taken by drinking a 22 oz 7.85% WTF
