Did not dissapoint.

The party was fantastic. I was feeling apprehensive about it all day before, because I had gotten it into my head that I was trapped by the dominating social group here, and also that my relationship was falling apart. The Horvath's spectacular music swooped in and tore that all right out. Sweat was pouring off my face and I saw some splatter across the lasers nicely. 90% of the people came dressed up, perhaps not entirely in keeping with the theme, but hey, a costume's a costume. Francisco took some great pictures so I'm just gonna steal them and stick them here:

Beth forwarded our Burningman list a story about the people who designed the largest and greatest Burningman art project this year, the Waffle. Apparently it was funded and conceived of by 2 people in charge of companies, and constructed by a mix of their factory workers and designer/artists all working together. One of them founded a radiator company, because he bases his life decisions on the thought, What makes people happy? and feels that heat makes people happy. Funny business model huh? What kind of company would I make if that were my primary objective:

- Good food that tastes good now and leaves you feeling good later,
- Taking care of kids, and using those kids to build ridiculously awesome projects that they feel good about,
- Movies
- Massages
- Swimming pools
- Sturdy, simple, beautiful teapots
- Music
- Parties
- Free information
- Parks
- Mystery and adventure (seriously, I came across this website for a secret club and it got my heart racing like I was 11. No, you can't have the address, it's secret!)

I am eating kumara for breakfast again. It is fried and sweet. It does not leave me feeling good later.
