All About You |
I am a criminal mastermind, masked by my deeply hypnotic and intertwining tales. My favorite flowers - daisies. My favorite shoes - converse. Jeans - bellbottoms. Color - Blue. Animal - platypus. My favorite food is ice cream, because I never get to eat it. I drink my coffee black with 8 lbs of sugar. I am prone to exaggeration. I swear like a sailor in a gigantimous fucking storm. I like to make up words like "gigantimous" and then act offended if you imply in any way that this is not a valid word. I am not an onion - I am not the layer cake that needs to be dug down into - I am a very simple person, and you will not know me better after ten years than you know me after ten minutes - but you will have heard all of my stories at least twice. I live a fabulously complicated life. I am crass, I am sarcastic, I am ungrateful - but I will love you like no one else in the world. I am unfailingly loyal. I am undone by my own honesty, often brutally so. I cheat in board games, even against little kids – but I do NOT cheat at Scrabble - I am just unbelievably rad. I like the word RAD, and will continue to use it until I die. I plan to fake senility early in my old age - so I can enjoy it thoroughly. I am a pyrotechnics freak. I am a grocery-cart racing champion. I will fake a seizure in the check out line, and I don't care if it embarrasses my kid. I think sock monkeys are hilarious. I have no shame. I once won the title of Best Girl-on-Girl Arm-Wrestler (Denny's Championship). I love to puddle-hop, and I don't care if it ruins my shoes. I am a chronic insomniac. I believe in aliens, and I aspire to one day be abducted. I am not a fan of midgets, or tuna from a can, or robots that are trained to do the jobs of people. I root for the underdog. I wish on shooting stars. I can survive on caffeine and nicotine alone. I live at ludicrous speed, and I talk in fast-forward... this only took me a minute to type. I can’t believe you’re still reading this… : ) I am happy to tell you anything you'd like to know about me - just ask. |

Top 10 reasons to go to Burning Man:
(or as many as you can think of) |
What? Burning Man sucks! Don't go! |
Top 10 things you don't like about Burning Man:
(or as many as you can think of) |
It was better next year. |
BurningMan Experience: |
Life-changing. I think that sums it up. |
BurningMan Tips & Tricks: |
I bring a bottle of cheap hair conditioner (think- Suave). If you put a little in your hair after showering and don't rinse it out, it will keep your hair from clumping up with playa dust. Also, if you are shaving from a cup, it works way better than shaving cream.
Leave it better than you found it.
Don't put your mouth on it if you don't know where it's been.

Years you've gone to Burning Man and your "Burning Moments":
(these are when you say, "oh my god did you just see that" or when something unigue happened to you.)
|
2005 - Temple Burn - it was a time of great significance for me, and I'll never forget it. I was completely in the moment - and the moment was beautiful.
2007- I picked three things I was DEFINITELY going to do, and I didn't do any of them...and I didn't care.
What I DID do was visit Pee Funnel Camp, and get my very own pee funnel. This was quite possibly the best decision I ever made in my life.
2009 - The Year of The Awesome! 'nuff said. |
