Row, Row, Row your Boat...Life is but a Dream

I'm not on Mefloquine, thank god (I refused!). However, I have been having some fantastic dreams since I have been in Togo... usually with famous people. One of the first ones was that I was the BFF of Tom Selleck. Yes, that's right, I was like that 80's sidekick on Magnum P.I. But wait! It gets better. Another dream I was cruising in a speedboat with the Hoff in what looked like the Florida everglades. One of my favorites happened the night before Thanksgiving. I was freestyle walking/dancing my way across the streets of NYC. I was doing ariels and flips and kicks and busting moves you've never seen amidst colorfully lit skyscrapers. At one point, Tommy The Clown appeared and busted a move with me. U2 was also there, and for some reason, I stopped in In-N-Out. Basically, I was unstoppable; I was the real MFing dancing queen. You would think that nothing could top this, but just recently I traveled to Oakland made over as Black Rock City. It was part carnival-circus-neon playground-utopia. I thought I had found heaven, so I checked into a hotel. It's hard for me to convey my excitement and joy at the discovery of such a city. The citizens were in stereotypical Burning Man attire but better and more outrageous. And, the architecture resembled rides at an amusement park with conveyor belts everywhere. The only sad thing is that I will miss the next real Burning Man. So I need you to tell me all about it so I can dream about it.
