Whump!

0 to 80, I can't do, so I'm wandering around in the verge.

BURING MAN: No time for projects or prep, which suxxors. Wanted to help with CLIVE II, but with school eating the whole week and then some, no way. Completed: Figured out basic pack list. Worked with R to triage and repair bicycle pile; after some tool buying and fooling around, looks like 5 of 7 will be usable.

To do: What I want to learn at Burning Man; Pack list complete; costumes; compleate schedule; build solar shower/evap pond; buy pump for barrel of water; figure other camp details

BACKYARD: Full of bicycles. Disposed of 3 hornet nests, all larger than my hand, found two more. Wow! Need to get irrigation sorted out before going away.

House: Holy Urban Blight, Ratman!

SCHOOL: OMG. No way going to get it done, not even able to try. 1/3 of an inch of paperwork completed, 2/3 of an inch to go. Lesson plans mulling. Desired Lab list unknown. Have Curricula but still no books, can't pull together lessons.


So much to do, and so I'm not getting much of it done...sigh.

Off to Asylum Street Spankers!

Hello again!

Nice to see you. There are so many possible experiences at Burning Man, that while it's essential to stay open to what occurs, it's really nice to have some sort of plan, such as:
Walk any labrynth you find, and the big one every day;
Take part in any spirit quests you run across;
Pray in whatever temple you find.

Then you have a spiritual time.

Or...go to classes at Camp Ariachne, and Pinks, and learn basic knotwork and pole dancing.

Or...find the best DJ dance spots.

All of these are possible. If you don't go out looking, you might never find. So if you go out with some sort of plan, something might occur.
