Burning Man Chronicles Part 2: the spa, The Man, and a large bunny
Okee-dokee, smokies, here’s some pictures from Tuesday on the playa:
I remembered from previous years that during the day, you really don’t want to wear a satin prom dress when it’s 100 degrees outside–and brought a colorful collection of shorts and bikini tops, which I wore every day during the heat.
The Boy workin’ that ugly yellow hat I made for the occasion.
Somehow–no, I don’t know how–Corinne and I forgot our hoops. We did manage to remember her heavy horrible “Hero Hoop”, so that worked.
When I saw Masil emerge from her tent I didn’t realize that she had been up all night–I just saw the sparkle dress. The expression on her face sums up how she was feeling at that moment.
Tuesday spa day went beautifully!
Everyone that showed up was cool.
Sarah’s gorgeous wings. She got married later on in the week.
The Boy was lovin’ those wings the first couple of days.
We went to check out The Man.
A few people who came by the spa told us to go look at the “Karma Bunny”. Every day a chakra lit up.
Inside the bunny was, apparently, the place to be, but we never got inside because it was too crowded, and it’s easy to have A.D.D. at Burning Man.
This cube lit up at night, and you could control the colors.
Back at camp, my uncles came by and I gave them their gifts–the blue cloak and pink tunic. They loved them.
They were certainly in their element.
Recognize this face? I saw Nico a couple of times over the course of the week. Naturally, being Nico, one of the first things he pointed out to me was my patchy tan. Hell, on Tuesday it still looked pretty good. I met his girlfriend–ahem–fiancee, he proposed to her on the playa. I guess we did want to get married all along, just not to each other!
I put on my 60s floral bikini and did some hooping.
Corinne checking out the event booklet. She wore those bondage boots for the majority of the week–impressive.
Then we put on our Tuesday night outfits.
This picture of Corinne makes me sing, “Gypsies, tramps and thieves…“.
Tuesday night was probably the best night, really. We went out all night, stayed up until sunrise, and had some seriously Good Times–that’s why–ah–there isn’t a single picture from Tuesday night, it was THAT GOOD.
Yesterday’s “motivation” crashed sometime after I picked up the rogs–freshly bathed and very excited to see Mommy. I sat on the couch, gulping down Big Sticks and watching Ingmar Bergman movies and didn’t do a damn thing–but that’s alright.
Today, perhaps, I will move a thing or two over to the New House. Like some books, or magazines. Nothing too heavy.
How come no pictures yet of naked people or girls with unshaven armpits? I want to see girls that look like they have birdnests under their arms, post some so I have something to look at later when I am home alone with no clothes on.
You know, I swear to God, I didn’t see as many naked people this year. I saw only ONE extremely ridiculously large schlong, and although there were plenty ‘o’ unshaved female pits around our camp, I didn’t take pics of them. Sorryyyyyy!
liking that last outfit of yours there… cute!
How about did you see any good crotch wool? Enough to knit a sweater?
Post a picture of the schlong.
Jesus Christ, Stacey Graham. I mean, “Abdul”. I didn’t take a picture of the giant schlong–I was too mesmerized.
Try to find any gay man’s BM Flickr set–schlongs galore.
Wooahhh, don’t you try to drag me into your perverted hippie world. I don’t want to look at any naked dudes. Leave me out of this.
Awww how fun! Just seeing you all sassy and cute is fabulous! Corinne looks absolutely adorable…I love the fact that in all the pics she is smiling, and not covering up her mouth. These pictures seriously remind me of the beauty of the two of you. Still, looking at the photographs I am drawn to the fact that Corinne is smiling…it seriously warms my heart.
I love how you just took the bikini and shorts thing and just ran with it! You seriously look amazing. I couldn’t wait to see all these pictures. I hope the recovering part is going smoothly too.
I bet the “rogs” (as you call them) went apeshit seeing you. I seriously will be so excited to see and hear the stories of how they’ll be with your future baby. I smile when I think of your being a mother, and how nuts your mother is going to be as a grandmother: she’ll have a blast, you know how Grandma’s always are and other than me, no one knows how to make a grilled cheese sanny worth their weight (I challenge you!)
