Costa Rica bound

I will be returning to Costa Rica at the end of this month for 5 weeks or so. There is a lot going on down there and I can't wait to get back.

I have a full itinerary already. Getting more work done on my Earthship, the goal being to have the foundation dug and the bottom room dug out. There is a full moon party at the farm, Eco-Sanctuary and the Envision Festival. On top of all that I am hoping to squeeze in some surfing somewhere. We will see if five weeks is long enough.

And now the last year before the planet explodes

We are all aware that the planet will likely explode this year. Who am I to argue with the Mayans and their extensive research into the nuances of time. If time and reality are mere constructs of the mind perhaps the Mayans performed some ancient spell to create the illusion of solidity. But the spell was only temporary and so will the end be. The rapture has come and gone a few times now. Everything falls down eventually. It is no coincidence that the cosmic illusion itself is known as Maya.

I have decided to take the leap and dedicate my life to writing. Really though, what other choice do I have? I am currently writing a "fiction" account of the last two years of my life leading up to the Burning Man adventure. I am also finally compiling a first book of poetry. It beats writing code.

I am now required, by profession, to travel, read, be unemployed and live with my parents or anyone else that will let me hide in the corner with my laptop, fervorously typing the memories of my life and calling it fiction. The names have been changed to protect the guilty. The innocent can fend for themselves.
