I love how much Burning Man energy is already swirling around in my life. After finishing all 8 of the octobike’s tentacles (only 4 shown here), Mom & I celebrated with an impromptu skit….and an Octopus Hug!!!

My playa plans are heading down a tentacled path…

My brother and I go on an Indian Jones-style mission to rediscover a tile mosaic we made 15 years ago.

I planted this vine 15 years ago. You reap what you sow…

It has been quite a week: the death of a fish, the harvest of grapes, Burning Man excitement, and the miracle of the mundane.

Join us for hugs, love, and thought! PLUS Earthquake check-ins!

I have uploaded 4 “How-to” videos to instructables.com.
The most recent is quickly becoming known as “the the world’s greatest video about adding fur to a bicycle.”

Last night I went to a Comic-Con related party. So my roomie and I dressed up. But never one to be copycats, we made up our own superheroes.

I went as “A Follower of SnuffleOctopus.”
She was “Biznitch, The Enforcer”

Who would YOU be!?

I actually *did* design and order this ink stamp last night. I had a Burning Man idea that got out of control. I’ll be issuing the sacred adornments to Believers on the Playa.
