2003 Burn... Through my eyes! Wow would be the second thing needing said.... This burn had many wonderful things and a few bad for me... The "COSMIC REASON" I feel I was "EVEN MEANT" to be at this year's Burningman "I saved Alexa's life" I helped a father deal with his son being gay, made many great friends, I totally freaked out some homophobes 2 str8 boys "memorably" and not to mention many many others! I finally met Curtis... I feel that I enlightened so many and will be a story told from scrapbooks for years to come!!! And The part that makes the "WOW" being the second thing I feel needing mentioned... I tripped on mushrooms in a mega dust storm. All I can say is "WOW!" I hate to say it (I say "Say it" a lot) but even at an event like BM where anybody SHOULD be welcome you still run into the dickheads. After 13yrs in Dayton Ohio as a transsexual you learn to let comments slide off. I mean HELL... They hung people like me 50 years ago and 50miles south! "Me" being a part of such an event makes it easier for those of "US" afraid to come out. Do you prefer "he or she?" It drove me nuts at times. I would say, "What would you prefer?" No No !!!. "WHAT" DO YOU prefer? Would you like me as he or she? LOL I can understand their apprehension with as many volatile cases I have met over the years. ANywaY... activating schema click to read! The
