Miscellaneous disjointed thoughts from my post-burn molasses brain:
- Best burn ever. As are they all. LOVED the pony. LOVED the increase in art. Hoping that it will inspire more in the future.
- Foam mattress beats the HELL out of air mattress.
- If you're careful, you can go through the weekend without sunscreen and not get burned.
- Rigid-pole tents are not for setting up alone. Especially for the first time. In the dark.
- Lotta bugs, hot hot sun, but more laughter, and heat exhaustion and bugbites heal.
- Finally getting the hang of not trying so hard to be in the right place at the right time - everywhere is the right place at the right time! Spent most of my time in camp, just talking and laughing. So there were a lot of things I wanted to do but didn't get to *cough*sockmonkeys*cough* and a lot of people I missed hanging with, but I'm okay with that. Which is nice.
- Already making plans for our next theme camp, Burning Village LLC, in which we will have much fun parodying Corporate America.
- Nobody's lookin' at my shoes anyway, so I might as well wear ones that are comfortable.
- it's totally worth wearing a real bra. Under-boob heat rash = not so much. Maybe I'll buy some shiny fabric and cover over my utili-bra with it.
- so glad I packed up and went home on Sunday night. Napping in the AC while everyone else were sweltering and packing was the smuggest pleasure in the universe.
- Finding out my best friend's baby was born while I was there was bittersweet. I so wish I could have been there.
- band-aid adhesive will remove toenail polish.
- It's surprising how many people will willingly hit themselves over the head with a cast iron skillet for a hot dog.
- The cutest mayor hat in the world is Very Hot. And also, nobody really takes advantage of your availability, but everyone treats you like a VIP. Which made me kinda uncomfortable since the Board is already struggling with that image. Still, I probably should have milked it.
- I was effing BORN to throw axes at zombie heads. BORN, I tell you. Why is there not a job that involves throwing axes full time?
