December Soaps & Smells!

by , in
There's something about the soap scents for the winter season that makes them much more magical compared to the ones throughout the rest of the year.

Think about it, stores like Bath & Body Works, The Body Shop, Sephora, Ulta, and etc, display their winter themed products and push them out until the end of the month. Remember all those gift baskets already made? I thought so.

Now I don't know if it's just me, but once December hits, I switch out all my normal soaps for these winter scented ones. Now I don't go out and buy all these winter scented products as soon as they come out. I normally get a couple winter scented products for Christmas, and I end up using them the following year. So today, I'm going to share with all you lovely folks my December soaps and smells this year! Now I have a preference when it comes to my soaps, I like Philosophy and Bath & Body Works. As you can see those are the only two brands present this season for my soaps and smells.

For my hair and body, I like to use the Philosophy Shampoo/Shower Gel/Bubble Bath. What a fancy product right? Forget two in one, it's all about those three in ones. I use this product year round, and it makes my hair feel amazing! The scents are really creative and they all smell so good. And when December rolls around, I like to get even fancier. This December's scent is: Sugar Plum Fairy! How is that even possible? I have no idea what a sugar plum or a sugar plum fairy smells like, but this shampoo smells fruity and festive. Plus it's glittery, how can you go wrong with glitter soap?

For my body spray and lotion, I'll be using more Philosophy products. These products are the same scent and that wonderful scent is Snow Angel. I got the Philosophy Snow Angel gift set last year, and I fell in love with it. By the end of the year, I had already used up the shampoo/shower gel/bubble bath and body scrub. I'm so glad I saved the body spray and lotion because it smells so good. Even though I live in Southern California, I have experienced snow and I know it doesn't always smell that good. But this Snow Angel stuff smells literally like magic.

Now even my lips get into the holiday spirit. How's that? Well Philosophy also makes flavored lip glosses! I'll be using the Peppermint Bark lip gloss. Now I have a TON of Philosophy lip glosses, especially when it comes to the holiday scented ones. You want to take a guess why? That's right, gift sets. Now I don't wear lipgloss very often, but I like to on occasion. Hence why it takes me forever to use them. Also I'm not a super big peppermint fan, but I really like how this lipgloss makes my lips tingle just the right amount.

And now we're all done with all of my Philosophy products and up next is the Bath & Body Works goodies. In my bathroom you'll find me washing my hands with my Iced Gingerbread Deep Cleansing Hand Soap. Gingerbread by far is my favorite holiday scent. Nothing makes me happier than the smell of gingerbread, and I wish it was a scent I could experience year round.

Even when I'm on the go, my hands are still going to smell good while being sanitized with the Pocketbac Oh Snap! Jolly Gingerbread Anti-bacterial Hand Gel. That's right even my hand sanitizer is even in the holiday spirit. Whoever created gingerbread scented anything is a genius in my book. I guarantee I'll be out of this one within the next couple weeks.

And those are my December soaps and smells! I don't know about you, but I'm going to smell extremely festive this holiday season. Tell me what you think, do you have a favorite scent during the holiday season? Do you think I'm nuts? Am I going overboard with all the holiday scents? Let me know what you think! Until tomorrow! And yes that is officially my new sign off for Blogmas!

Blogmas + My Christmas Playlist

by , in
Happy December everyone! This year, I decided that I am going to participate in Blogmas. For those of you that do not know what Blogmas is, it is when you blog (or vlog which is actually Vlogmas) everyday until Christmas Day! So 25 blogs, maybe a vlog or two thrown in there, for 25 days in a row? Challenge accepted.

I know my last 30 day challenge didn't go as plan but I've learned from that and I know what I need to do to and I know how it needs to get done. I will complete the Blogmas challenge, on time... Hopefully... Anyways, I'm rambling now. So for the first day of Blogmas, I thought it would be fun to share my Christmas Playlist.

What's Christmas without holiday music? Now my Christmas Playlist hasn't really changed since I was in high school. And that was about six years ago. So it may or may not be outdated. So here are some of the songs I like to listen to during the holiday season.

    Ho Ho Hopefully | The Maine

    This song is on repeat all day on December 1, all because of the first line of the song. "December first I'm in a foreign state." Kind of cheesy to play a song that mentions December 1 on repeat on December 1, but hey that's one of my traditions. But besides that, this song is super cute and it is all about how important it is to be with your loved ones during holidays.

    Girl of my Dreams | Jonas Brothers

    Where my fellow JoBro fans at?! Who remembers this track from the Disney Holiday cd? No one? Just me? Okay. Hey it's still a jam.

    Wonderful Christmastime | The Ready Set

    The Ready Set is one of my favorite artists and his version of the classic song is funky and fresh.

    Mr. Winter | The Maine

    The Maine honestly has the best original Christmas music, but the best part is that it's so good you want to listen to it year round. Especially Mr. Winter could just be a really cold guy rather than a season. But this song is on their Christmas EP so it makes it onto my Christmas playlist.

    Greatest Time Of Year | Aly & AJ

    Another classic from the Disney Holiday CD. So catchy and so true, Christmas time/winter time really is the greatest time of the year.

    All I Want For Christmas | Big Time Rush

    I chose the Big Time Rush version because, I like Big Time Rush, they're a very underrated boyband. Don't get me wrong, Mariah Carey's is great as well, it's a classic. I just prefer this one.

    Santa Stole My Girlfriend | The Maine

    The line: Santa, you bitch is possibly the greatest and funniest line ever. I chuckle every time. I'm telling you The Maine has the best original Christmas music.

    Forgot It Was Christmas | The Downtown Fiction

    This song is catchy and has a great tune. It's also very funny, the boyfriend forgets to buy the girlfriend a Christmas present so he writes her a song saying he forgot it was Christmas. Likely story. No one forgets Christmas.

    Last Christmas | Cascada

    There are so many covers of this song, but this by far is the best version. Hands down.

    Beautiful Christmas | Big Time Rush

    A festive and catchy song all about the deeper meaning of Christmas. A beautiful Christmas, is not from the presents, but how you spend it and who you spend it with.

    Wishlist | The Ready Set

    Another original, and gosh I just love it. "Cause you're number one on my wishlist baby." Tell me that's not adorable.

    White Christmas | Honor Society

    Another classic Christmas song, done by one of my old favorite bands. I just love this version. Michael Bruno's voice is so soothing and wonderful.

    Christmas In Hollywood | Hollywood Undead

    It's Christmas in Hollywood, Santa's back up in the hood. I used to have this song on my Myspace page every December, MYSPACE. That's how old this song is. This naughty song is catchy and very funny. There needs to be more funny and adult Christmas music.

    Merry Christmas, Kiss My Ass | All Time Low

    Finishing off the playlist with my favorite snarky Christmas song by one of my favorite bands. Doesn't everyone have someone they want to say Merry Christmas, Kiss My Ass to? It's the perfect thing to say to someone you simply cannot stand.

So there's my playlist for this holiday season! Well for every holiday season since I was sixteen, but you get the point. Unfortunately, not every single one of these songs are on Spotify. But a majority are and if you want to give a listen to my playlist check it out here! And here we have it, the first day of Blogmas is complete! One down, twenty four to go. Let's go. Until tomorrow. See what I did there?

Making The Best Out Of LA

by , in
When a tourist thinks of Los Angeles, they think of movies and glamour. Anyone who lives about an hour or so away can only think about the traffic and its lack of cleanliness. But somehow this big city seems to attract lots of people each year. Despite my personal dislike for Los Angeles, I can admit there are some pretty cool things to see and do here.

Gaze at the stars at the Griffith Observatory. Although, most people come for an incredible view of Los Angeles, as well as the best view of the Hollywood sign. But what you may not know, is that inside the observatory there is a museum full of space exhibits, this also includes the pendulum as well as the telescope. The museum (and parking) is free however, you do have to pay for a planetarium show.

As much as I hate to say it, how can you say you've been to Los Angeles and never once seen Hollywood. Hollywood is the Times Square of Los Angeles, bright lights and filled with a bunch of tourists who don't know how to walk. Of course this will be the most annoying place to go to, but sometimes these things need to be done. The Hollywood Walk of Fame and the handprints/footprints at the Chinese Theatre are a must see for tourists. And across the street you'll have the historic El Capitan theatre. On this part of Hollywood Blvd, is theatre and premiere central. Who knows maybe when you're there you'll stumble upon a real Hollywood premiere.

If you want to appreciate art and culture in Los Angeles, then try The Getty Center. The museum itself is free but there is a parking fee. But from the parking lot, you do get to enjoy a fun little tram ride up to the museum! Paintings, gardens, amazing architecture and a spectacular view, The Getty has something to offer everyone.

Also if you're a really big museum lover there is Museum Row. Here you'll find other popular museums such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art or as everyone else calls it LACMA, La Brea Tarpits and Museum, Hancock Park, and several other museums!

And what's a trip to LA without a visit to the most famous zip code? That's right, 90210, Beverly Hills. Take a look at the most fake city in the entire world, I say this because it's where all the plastic surgeons are. And why not take a stroll down Rodeo Drive and look at all the things you probably can't afford.

If you want more affordable shopping, check out The Grove, a cute outdoor mall. And right across from the mall, you'll find the Original Farmers Market.

However there are some tourist destinations in Los Angeles that I completely don't understand. Venice Beach, for one, it's dirty and disgusting. Shady people everywhere and a dirty beach. No thank you. If you must go to the beach head down south towards Manhattan Beach or even Orange County, there you'll find cleaner beaches where it is safe to swim and walk along.

The Santa Monica Pier is another one where I don't understand the hype. It's a very crowded amusement park on a pier, big deal. It's not very clean or well taken care of either. The pier is nice to look at from a distance, but I don't recommend going there. Unless you want to be disappointed in an overhyped landmark.

Also don't bother taking a tour of celebrity homes or buying a map of the star's homes. All you're going to see when you pull up to the house is a very large wall and gate.

Los Angeles, it's a big city filled with a bunch of things to do and see. Sometimes it can be a pain to get around. You'll need a car, and to be careful and have tons of patience because driving in LA is the worst. But the delicious Mexican food will make up for it. Until next time.

'Tis The Season With Red Cups

by , in
Once Halloween is over, you know what that means... Christmas is around the corner, because apparently no one really cares about Thanksgiving. Or is Thanksgiving simply just forgotten? Instead, we start playing Christmas music and we break out our ugly sweaters.

And Starbucks is no exception to this rule. 'Tis the season, at least that's what they said on November 1, in a promotional email to celebrate the return of the red cups and holiday beverages.

That's right, the Chestnut Praline, Eggnog, Gingerbread and Caramel Brulée lattes are back!

Of course we know Christmas is on the way, but can we actually get through Thanksgiving first before we start singing Christmas carols and enjoy our favorite holiday beverages. Is that simply too much to ask? Does Halloween not deserve a mourning period? No? We're just going to go straight to Christmas, sorry not sorry Thanksgiving, okay cool.

But the excitement towards the red cups and holiday beverages raises a valid question. Do the actual dates of when the seasons start and finish matter? Or does Starbucks actually determine it? Because I'm pretty sure it wasn't fall yet when the Pumpkin Spice Latte came out, but once it did everyone declared it was fall and headed to their nearest pumpkin patch.

We all throw a fit when the stores put their Christmas decor and items up in advance but no one seems to care that Starbucks holiday beverages were available pretty early this year. Because it is certainly it is not winter yet, but somehow it already feels like it. Is this because of the cooling weather here in Southern California? Or is it all because of the beautiful red cups and the wonderful holiday beverages?

Now assuming that you don't live under a rock, you probably have heard of all the flak that Starbucks is getting because of their red cups. Raise your hand if you are completely sick of this nonsense and could care less about being offended by a red cup. Blah blah war on Christmas. Who cares if your cup doesn't have a snowman or a snowflake on it, move on and enjoy your god damn coffee. This "controversy" does not even matter, especially when there are much more serious things going on in our world today.

What's way more important, is how these cups and drinks have an effect on all of us. For some of us, they show us which season it is and even put us in the holiday spirit. Others love to complain about the cups while others don't see the big deal and hardly care at all.

Personally, I have no idea what makes these red cups so special and such a hot topic but they are. When they first came out, there was a Snapchat Geotag dedicated to the "first red cup." Now there are other Starbucks sponsored Geotags promoting the red cups. Also on Twitter, when the hashtag #RedCup or #RedCups is used a little red cup hashflag appears next to it. Plus we all know that social media is filled with pictures of these cups. And yes, I am guilty of posting a few, but I know most of you have too.

Currently Starbucks has a holiday beverage promotion going on: the Keep The Cheer Going card. If you buy a grande holiday espresso beverage you'll get a sticker for your card. When you get five stickers, you get a grande espresso beverage for free! This promotion started on November 16 and will last until Christmas (December 25). Pretty cool right? I don't know about you, but I plan on taking advantage of this!

Besides all of the promotion and controversy over the red cups, let's not forget the most important part of those cups. The yummy goodness that is inside them. So this season, enjoy a holiday beverage with someone you care about and enjoy the good times. Until next time.

My Glam Bag Has An Alter Ego? I Couldn't Find It...

by , in
When October strolls around we all have pumpkins and Halloween on the mind. We think about how can we alter ourselves for the one holiday we are allowed to play dress up and be something that we normally are not. But nowadays, clothes aren't the only thing we use to transform our appearance on Halloween. With makeup we can transform ourselves on into anything we want. A mermaid, a superhero, a skull, you name it, it is possible. That was allegedly the idea behind this month's Glam Bag from ipsy.

My alter ego Glam Bag included a gold and black makeup bag which had the following products inside: AURORA Gel Effect Nail Polish in Inky Dinky, theBalm Cosmetics Meet Matt(e) Hughes Long-Lasting Liquid Lipstick, Beauty Without Cruelty Fragrance Free Hand and Body Lotion, Nourish Organic Pure Hydrating Argan Face Serum and pur~lisse BB Tinted Moist Cream SPF30.

The AURORA Gel Effect Nail Polish in Inky Dinky is a nail polish that gives off a gel effect. Now I'm not familiar with gel nails so I have no idea how it differs from regular nail polish. I'm not a nail expert and I never will be. The shade Inky Dinky is a nice navy blue/purple shade, honestly to me it looks like indigo. This nail polish claims that it will last for two weeks but I sincerely doubt that, I put this nail polish on two or three hours ago and it has already started chipping. With this nail polish you have to do at least two coats for it to look somewhat decent. The brush is really thick and when you're painting your nails the polish gets a little clumpy.

The theBalm Cosmetics Meet Matt(e) Hughes Long-Lasting Liquid Lipstick was a complete surprise. Then again I really shouldn't be surprised because theBalm has such amazing products and their puns are always entertaining. The shade I received was called Committed, which is a pink nude shade! Which is a shade I LOVE! Thank you ipsy for finally listening to my critiques. Pink nudes are my go to and I'm in love with this one. Also I'm normally not the biggest fan of liquid lipsticks because they never last long, even if they claim they do. But this lipstick actually does last for a long time. I finished a grande Chestnut Praline latte and my lipstick is still visible. It's everything that I want in a lipstick, and there's no need for constant reapplication.

The Beauty Without Cruelty Fragrance Free Hand and Body Lotion moisturizes and softens your skin. It is supposed to help your skin stay youthful and vibrant while being a vegan, cruelty free and paraben free product. It is scentless which just reminds me of the free lotion you get from hotels. There's nothing super special about this lotion besides that it does its job and makes your skin soft and smooth.

The Nourish Organic Pure Hydrating Argan Face Serum is an oil that hydrates and smooths your skin. The oil itself is very runny and that just seems to be a common thing with Nourish Organic products. But the fact that it was runny didn't bother me because this product has a lot of pros instead of cons. Pro #1, it smells so good and I just loved putting it on my face. Pro #2, it made my face feel so good. After using this product my face felt smoother, softer and it actually evened out my skin tone and texture. I love this stuff and it surprised me, especially since I didn't think I would.

The pur~lisse BB Tinted Moist Cream SPF30 was an exciting find in my Glam Bag. I've never used BB Cream but I've heard so many good things about it so I was excited to give it a try. If you don't keep up with the latest makeup trends (like myself), BB Cream is a moisturizer, primer, foundation and sunblock all in one. It's soothing on your skin while it protects it from UV rays, thank you SPF. It really does help brighten and shine your complexion and improves your skin texture all while it makes your skin soft and smooth.

Overall I was impressed by the products in my Glam Bag, the only thing that disappointed me was how none of these products went with the theme of an alter ego. An alter ego is defined as a second self, which is believed to be distinct from a person's normal or original personality. Which I don't think any of these products did and they certainly did not make me feel any different. These products didn't change anything about my appearance. Although these products are amazing and I'm very happy with my Glam Bag, I just wish Michelle Phan and the people at ipsy would work harder on the theme of the Glam Bag and integrate the products in a better way. I've noticed that the themes never go hand in hand with the products and that's something ipsy truly needs to work on. Instead, the Youtubers at ipsy use the themes to promote themselves and their content rather than the actual products which we are paying for. I bet none of the Youtubers actually use any of the products we receive. If this does not change in the future, I bet some consumers (like myself) will switch to other beauty boxes like Sephora's new box Play! or Birchbox.

Rating this Glam Bag is going to be tough because I really enjoyed the products but the theme just did not even belong with any of this products. Most of these products would have done better in last month's bag Face Fashion. If I'm judging this bag solely on the products it would receive 4/5 stars. BUT since the theme and the Glam Bag go hand in hand I'd have to give this bag 2.5/5 stars. This is because there were only three things that were even related to an alter ego, the lipstick and the nail polish, and the glam bag itself.

Did you get a Glam Bag? What did you think? How do you feel about ipsy's themed bags? Am I being too hard on them or do you agree their themes seem pointless and have nothing to do with the actual products? Have you tried any other beauty box subscriptions? Tell me all about them! Until next time.

Challenge Complete!

by , in
We've reached the end of the daily blog challenge from September. It only took me two months to do thirty blog posts. But this challenge did teach me something really important:
Blogging is hard.
I underestimated how much work running a blog is. To all my fellow bloggers or even youtubers out there, I have so much respect for you guys because this is tough. I can't even imagine what it would be like to write a really popular blog or even film a popular Youtube channel. Producing content daily is tough, and to all of you who do it on a daily basis I applaud you.

While doing this daily blog challenge, I like to think I started off strong. I was producing content daily and I'd like to think some of it was interesting. But then half way, I started to get writer's block. Some of the topics were tough for me, it would take me days to get inspired to produce a piece. Also being on vacation and brainstorming ideas for blog posts after this challenge didn't help either.

But I persevered and I did it, even though it took me longer than I expected it to. But nonetheless, I am proud of myself. I didn't give up. This daily challenge helped me become a stronger writer. It's true what they say, if you practice daily you really do end up getting better in your craft.

I learned a lot when it came to this challenge. Blogging is tough and it requires a lot of work and attention. And I know what I need to work on for the future of my blog. Setting up a schedule of when to post certainly helped a lot when it came to posting. And I know I need to work on posting things in a timely matter, and I will get better at that with a lot more practice.

So this leads me to the topic for this last post of this challenge. What are the hopes for my blog?

Honestly, this is what I want to with my life. I love to write. I studied journalism in university and it's the career path I have chosen. Although I'm currently career-less, I'm using my blog as a portfolio you can say. I write these posts to practice my writing and hopefully I will get better with time. I use this blog to show what I am capable of and how versatile I can be with my writing.

If no one reads my blog, that's fine. I'm proud of everything I write and post on this website. If just one person reads any of this that still makes me happy because I'm doing what I love.

I encourage everyone to do what they love and what they are passionate about, because if you're not passionate about anything in life then what's the point? Follow your dreams and achieve your goals, you can do anything if you set your mind to it. I've got a lot of ideas and you will be hearing from me soon. Until next time.

CONFESSION: I'm Addicted To...

by , in
We've reached the point of the daily blog challenge, where I am supposed to confess something. Alright, here it goes. Deep breaths. I, Kaitlin Mary Simpson have an addiction. An addiction to television.

Yes it's true, I watch TV whenever I can. I'm even watching TV as I type up this blog post. You can see Arrow is on my TV screen at the moment. My TV is never off, I can't sleep if it's not on. I can't be productive if my TV isn't on, it's almost like I need the mindless noise on. It helps me stay focused on the task at hand.

But then again there are other times where I simply can't focus on anything else except the TV. This is because today's shows are much better than what they used to be and we can't stop binge watching. We need to know what happens. Or is it another reason?

Growing up, I never had a TV problem. I'd watch my favorite shows when they came on and I wouldn't really care about seeing the next episode to see what would happen. Is this because TV shows back then weren't that interesting and each episode wasn't related? Or was it because we didn't have the technology back then as we do now.

Back in the day, it was a lot harder to get addicted to TV shows. Simply because there was only one way to watch it. You had to wait for it to come on at a certain time on a certain day and mentally keep track of when to watch it. Myself being a forgetful person, I would forget when shows would come on and I ended up missing a lot of episodes of some of my favorite shows. And when the shows would go on break, I had to hope I could catch the episode when it was a rerun. Oh man the struggle was real, at least until DVR/TiVo and Netflix/Hulu were invented.

I was introduced to DVR when I was either 14 or 15 years old, and that was the start of my television problem. I got so excited I could record shows and never miss them anymore. And even better, I could fast forward commercials!! With my new friend Mr. DVR, I started recording every show that had somewhat of an interested to me. I had things set to record almost every day of the week. And the best part was that I no longer had to wait to watch a show, I could sit down and watch my shows whenever I wanted.

My TV addiction may have started with my DVR but it certainly has grown with arrival of Netflix and Hulu.

Hulu certainly saved my life when I was in college. I had to say goodbye to my DVR and go back to the old fashioned way of waiting for my shows to come on and watch them. But that was difficult because most of the time, I'd be busy doing schoolwork, going to events on campus, going to class, or I'd watch other shows or movies with my roommates. Yeah I had class my first semester during prime time TV. I hated my night classes so much. So whenever I wanted to catch up on my shows, Hulu was there for me. With every show I missed, it was uploaded a day or sometimes a week later.

I think I got Netflix my sophomore year of college and that was what introduced me to binge watching. I found shows I always wanted to see but never got the chance to actually sit down and watch. But with Netflix I could start from the first episode and end at the season or series finale. Ever since then, I've binge watched several shows like The Office, Bob's Burgers, Scandal, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Once Upon A Time and now my current binge obsession, iZombie.

With today's technology, a television addiction is completely normal and part of every day life. Especially with so many good TV shows out there nowadays. No wonder why my DVR is full all the time.

Now tell me, what's your poison? Hulu? Netflix? DVR or TiVo? Online streaming? Amazon Prime? Tell me how do you binge watch or do you not binge watch TV and spend all your time outside hiking or something? Until next time.

The Everyday Struggles Of A Clumsy Person

by , in
Growing up, my mom had tons of nicknames for me, the one I got called most often was Grace. Now my name is Kaitlin so where does Grace come from? Well Grace comes from the word, graceful.

Graceful, which is something that I am not whatsoever. Even at a young age, my mom could tell that I am a super klutz. But I've learned to live with it, and it helps to know that you're not alone.

Being clumsy can be painful and it can make simple a daily task a struggle, just like that. Sometimes it can even be painful, and you'll find bruises on yourself but you don't remember exactly how you got them. But for those of you who aren't clumsy, well first off aren't you lucky, and second it's time to shed a little light on how tough life can be when you're clumsy.

  1. Walking can put yourself in danger, every step you take forward can lead you to tripping over a curb, step or even your own feet. And don't you dare forget about slipping either.
  2. Wearing white is always a no, the chances of spilling something is almost always guaranteed.
  3. Actually anything you wear isn't safe, because you're most likely going to spill on yourself. And it will stain. You might as well just carry a bib with you at all times.
  4. What is balance? Because you have none. Walking in heels or standing on a bus or a train is just a bad idea.
  5. Taking photos with your friends and constantly ruining them, everyone else looks good and ready except for you.
  6. Always having phone problems. It's probably because you drop it constantly. Or even worse, a cracked iPhone, no screen protector can save you now.
  7. Objects seem to appear out of nowhere. You're walking and then SMACK. How's did this pole get here?
  8. Putting makeup or nail polish on takes longer because you have to be extra careful. We've all poked ourselves in the eye with our mascara, it's okay. And instead of painting your nails you end up painting your fingers.
  9. Dancing or sports are all fun and games until you end up hurting yourself.
  10. Meeting new people can get embarrassing. Do we shake hands? Or hug? Oh awkward wave it is.
  11. Opening food containers without spilling is basically impossible.
  12. Even furniture can be the enemy, whether you stub your toe on a chair or roll out of bed nothing can be trusted. Especially chairs that tilt backwards.

Not everyone can be graceful, some of us get called graceful ironically. Basically us clumsy people are our own worst enemies. For those of you who aren't clumsy, you are envied. Tell me, what's the clumsiest thing you do? I know I can't walk or balance to save my life. Until next time.
