Burning Retrospective

23Aug2003 Filed under: I Like To Watch

1999:

This was the first year I went. Megasoul and I had a tent and some top ramen. Luckily, we found some friends of mine to camp with, but it was definitely a low preparation year. Funny things happened.

2000:

This was the year I went with Andreas. The weather was miserable, and I was overdressed constantly, feeling like a drag queen in a corner pub, as the tiara on my knee is evidence of. Ooh, I need to pack that tiara.

I miss your dreds. (And I mean that in the most un-stalker-like way possible.)

Hey there. I'm Ariel Meadow Stallings, a native Seattleite who's written my way up and down the Left Coast. Electrolicious is where I post daily randomata, but I also write for a living. My first book, Offbeat Bride, was published last year.
