I miss the playa :-( .......

Sitting here catching up on all my bills and thinking of things that I really miss right now:

- taking that first deep breath of air mixed with playa dust once I hit the greeter's station.
- waking up in Black Rock City.
- freaking out because all hell is breaking loose during my coffee shift.
- getting dizzy from drinking too much coffee on an empty stomach
- cruising the wind swept open playa on my bike during the day.
- smoking cloves
- dancing my arse off to BLVD or Tiesto.
- seeing Dan run around like a crazy man with a 6 foot inflatable penis.
- watching Josh make "one last adjustment" up on the tower.
- drinking a last cocktail next door at Starlust before stumbling home.
- riding my scooter around at night while I'm f--ked out of my mind.
- wearing my green Oscar the Grouch outfit.
- hangin' around the burn barrell at the Ranger's Station next door as the sun comes up.
- hearing "thump-thump-thump" as I drift off to sleep
- my cat of 15 years, Boots, whom I had to put to sleep 2 days after returning from the playa.

        That's great! "Be the man, Mark"! (Caddyshack).
        I'm personally laughing to myself in some of my meetings lately, thinking "I wonder what these people would think of me running around in my big furry green Oscar The Grouch outfit with my hair colored green?". It's a nice way to break up the monotony of some meetings.

        Thanks for the Boots thoughts. He was a big huge Tomcat who ruled his world but was reduced to pulling himself around with his front paws. He's in a better place .... I think I'll put his collar in the Temple next year.
