Fred and I leave for Burning Man in 4 1/2 days.
Our shopping is done. The mini bar is stocked. We have durable bins ready to be packed, with most of the stuff in piles sitting in or around each bin.
I spent the majority of last weekend either hot glueing or sewing EL wire to a flight suit. I still have the arms and chest to finish sewing (Fred spent all day Saturday doing his). I'm pondering a fashion show of all the funky colorful outfits we've made.
With all of the meetings and notes we've taken, going along with a group that's half Burning veterans, half Burning virgins, I feel so prepared in so many ways, and yet, I feel myself getting anxious and freaking out a bit, not about the experience, or the dust, anything like that. It's more the stuff left undone, the piles of work at work left to do, running out of time to do it all, knowing I'm going to be gone for a week.
It's Monday technically Tuesday. And I've still got at least two classes to go to, the flight suit to finish, a dentist's appointment, and two weeks worth of work to finish in 4 days. Ugh.
I'm gonna need another vacation after this one.
Fred just said, "Honey, you and me, we're dumb." LOL
