Are We There Yet?

Well, life has been hectic preparing for my 7th trip to Burning Man in less than 2 weeks. One would think I could just roll up into it with ease and knowledge of a veteran. But, it's a lot of work packing, finding a bike, decorating the bike, finding a carpool, figuring out when you leave/return, and whether to book that retro-neon room in Reno.




I spent my second weekend in Seattle working on the Inca Roads art bus. It looks fantastic. We painted the inside and exterior, and stained some doors. My laser star projector showed up, as did some interesting costumes. I cannot wait to be heading on the road with M&C. We are due to arrive Saturday. I will help setup Costco SoulMate Trading Post. This year the camp with have a fridge and barbecue. First time I will be camping with a major theme camp and participating in a meal plan. I am going to cook carnivore and vegetarian Thai yellow curry.


These past few weeks, I went to dinner with Demanda to The Reef on the drive for dinner. I had a delish fish entree with a Majita (raspberry rum mojito). I longed to be laying in a hammock holding a slushee drink watching the playa go by.

I also went to Flying Tiger with a friend I had not seen in years. We split tasty Asian tapas and I had a delicious Tiger Tail martini (pear vodka, apple, sparking cider, honey and cinnamon). I also am starting to catch up with an even older friend. It is nice to have him back in my life. I have missed him dearly. I am almost tempted to kidnap him and take him to the Burn.


Langara finally gave me my registration date of late June in August. Luckily, I managed to register for a business course that is a prerequisite for Managerial Accounting.


Other than that, been crazy busy preparing for the road trip and squeezing in as much social stuff as I can.

I bought a snazzy new Creative Nomad Zen. I cannot wait to load her up and try her out!
