I realized today that I have not really touched or been touched by anyone since last Thursday morning. I've had some hand shakes, a couple minor my-knee-bumped-your-knee-on-the-couch events, but that's it. I need hugs! And cuddles! I've been so thoroughly blessed with cuddly friends for at least the last 13 months that I had forgotten what it's like to not have any touch in my life. I need to make some friends soon. Or go on a date. Something.
On a semi-related note, I was totally hit by holy-shit-I'm-not-going-to-Burning-Man sadness today. I've tried to make peace with this, but it's hard. I looked at a bunch of pictures today. So much amazing art and beautiful people, and good community. I haven't been dancing or heard good dance music since I can't even remember when. I need these things.
I'm excited for school, but right now I just wish I had a friend nearby, or a big beautiful playa on which to galavant.
friends,
burning man,
school
