A LaLa-ism to my fellow burners...

it's called: "I remember a day when it was o.k. ........................" I remember a day when it was o.k. to smile knowingly into your unfamiliar eyes. I remember a day when it was o.k. for us to speak freely and yell and laugh out loud together. I remember a day when it was o.k. to grab a long hug and to feel you squeeze me back for no reason. I remember a day when it was o.k. for you to ask me for help without fear or reservation. I remember a day when it was o.k. for us to jump up and dance because we felt like it. I remember a day when it was o.k. to have no agendas or meanings or schedules. I remember a day when it was o.k. to watch you blow my mind with your spirit. I remember a day when it was o.k. to be dirty and dusty on the play(a)ground with my friends. I remember a day when it was o.k. to not be strangers anymore. I remember a day when it was ok to just BE…courageously...you and me. I don't know your real name. I don't know what you do for a living or how old you are. I just miss you, and I know you miss me too. We can't go outside and play right now…but I still feel better knowing you're out there. You're either sitting behind a desk, or you walked by me today looking down at the pavement…carefully avoiding eye contact. So let's take care of this business of social survival for a little while now…so we can burn some fucking shit up again together in the dust next year. All of my dorky love, La)'(La

Happy BRC New Year!! :-)

So I have always heard that every burn is very very different. WoW...so true! So this year being my burn #4...I figured bringing out an art car would probably make the experience WAY different...lots of toil....but AMAZINGLY fun! Yet...the experience of creating and sharing the BRC Jungle Cruise was awesome...but not what defined the 2006 burn for me. This burn feels almost like a New Years celebration and a fresh start for me. This year of 2006 I have learned so much about friendships, agendas, intentions and loyalty...and the playa only amplified that. The default world bled onto the playa and then back here again full circle. The truth seems to lie in the dust where our true colors will somehow shine brighter. I left the playa so full of warmth and love and new bonds along with some tough revelations...and yet all have brought me so much peace. Happy New BRC Year! :-) I still love hot coffee on a dusty morning ...and sitting and laughing with old friends, new friends and anyone with a good heart, a smile and a mutual love for caffeine! I'm also WAY energized about art projects for 2007!!! And as for mean people...well they still suck. :-) LOL!! Let's go have a beer! Anyone?

Enter La La land...what do you see? It's all good. The people are happy with themselves, enjoying life and each other. No one is bitching or passing judgement, and there is NO excluding others. No drama. So now... enter the real world...what do you see? Humans. Humans can't help but have past hurts, fragile egos and fears. Everyone wants a bigger slice of the pie or they possess some self-righteous higher knowledge you don't....and have to tell you. Drama. Republicans and Democrats. Liberals and Conservatives. Christians and Muslims. Men and Women. Yes...I live in a La La land inside my own head. Yes, it's odd...but so what? I am mush. I am Switzerland. In the middle. It's a relief that now I finally don't fight it anymore. I'm a total dork...a metro-hippy...and that's o.k. It's my place...and for one week a year I am free to walk in it with others. My catch 22: I live in this real world whilst I also exist within my own La La land. "I actually love EVERYBODY...even those that think they are WAY too cool to talk to me. So: 1. I love people. 2. I hate drama. 3. People=Drama. So...there's my conundrum...my catch 22. And...of course..."who cares?" this is the silliest blog I've ever read....LOL! :-) "Mean people suck" "What the fuck is a 'COOL BURNER' anyway?.....uggggh!"
