I dreamt that it was Tuesday 27 August. and I realized, wow, I had't
yet bought my ticket for burning man. I convinced Karine that she
should go but she didn't have any gear/clothes for the desert.

we ended up in Southern California driving back and forth between
these clothing/supply stores. one was in the desert but you had to go
west from where we were to get there. I spent a lot of time in the dream
looking with Karine at baby-blue and pink fleece pullovers, euw.
we were piling the the purchases into this little golf-cart that we
were driving back and forth - a considerable distance.

on the freeway the golf-cart got stuck in reverse and I ended up driving
it backwards for quite a while. I couldn't believe the near-misses
that we got into. finally I slowed down and pulled it into a parking
lot so we could check it out and un-stick it. I thought I had succeeded
and when I stepped on the accelerator it went backward and crashed
through a chain-link dumpster enclosure. oops.

then the trash truck came and we had to maneuver out of the way to
prevent getting speared by those prongs on the truck that pick up
the dumpsters. at this point we realized that the golf-cart wasn't
big enough to hold our purchases *and* all the gallons of water we
needed to fill so we went to get my SUV.
