That Time I Became an Uber Driver

Thursday, October 25, 2018

This site has affiliate links and sponsored content. Read my Disclosure Policy.

Yeaaaaa, bet I surprised ya didn't I?   I bet you didn't know I have been driving for Uber and Lyft for about 6 months now, didja?! Well, it's true.  Blogging was getting slow at the beginning of Summer and I also lost my blogging mojo (which I've since gotten back) so I was desperate for more money to help me with some vet bills with the dogs and just general life expenses. 


So I signed up as an Uber driver and got to work.  I had no idea what I was doing at first and I was nervous as all hell but like most things in life, I started learning right away, with the help of fellow drivers in various Facebook groups.

No that's not a bra strap - that's a cami strap.  A cami with a built in bra!


I've been wanting to do a post about this for the longest time simply because I talk about on every other form of social media there is.   You know how people make fun of those photos that circulate as memes of people at Walmart?  They have a wedgie, no bra, and their hair looks like they just got electrocuted like Marv on Home Alone.  Well, I used to laugh at those.  Then I became the no bra woman. 

Ohhh That Dreaded Yearly Gyno Appointment

Thursday, March 29, 2018


Oh ladies, you already know by the title of this post that you are NOT alone when it comes to dreading your gynecologist.  I mean seriously, what the heck!? No matter how many times you go, it's always so invasive and awkward.  Maybe the appointment itself isn't even as bad as the build up in the week or just the day beforehand.  

2 years ago I did a hilarious post about 15 reasons to dread your annual gyno exam and it was a big hit.  We all pretty much hate the same stuff.   Well, it was just that time of year again for me and this time I was so worked up that I did some internet research (lol) beforehand to see how exactly to relax more during your annual exam. 

Basically what I learned was popping 2 ibuprophen can help and to make it less uncomfortable during the apointment, bare down.  Yes, bare down aka push.  No, not like you're pooping per say, but just push "down there".  

So my appointment came and it was time to try out the methods I read about. 

So I get there, and when my name is called, I smile and walk on back.  She asks if I have to use the rest room (I already did) but I say yes.  I try again and then I stare in the mirror and try to talk myself into the appointment. You is smart, you is funny, you is kind, you has a strong vagina and you can do this! 

So I go into my exam room, get nakey, and sit on that damn crunchy paper.   Normally I sit there and ponder my existance and debate just running back out to my car screaming F THE WORLD! What are they gonna do? Arrest me for not getting a pap? But then I remember I need to get this so I can get my Birth Control prescription renewed so I decide I'm just gonna deal with it.  Normally I feel all uncomfortable and sweaty down there from sitting on that damn awkward paper for 15 minutes until they finally come in.  


So you know what? I decide I'm gonna lay my ass down and get comfy. I'm gonna take control!  So I shift my booty to the bottom of the exam table and lay down.  

That's when I noticed it...

There's a damned picture on the ceiling!!!  A picture that's likely supposed to make you relax.  It's legit a picture torn off of a calendar. I immediately Facebook it and that's when everyone starts commenting that they go to the same place but their picture is of something different like a horse in a pasture.  By this time I'm cracking the heck up!   

Then she comes in and it's go time.   She says "Oh you're all relaxed already! " Then she looks under the stupid sheet and says "And look at that you're already on the end of the table". Yep! Because I hate when they say "Okay, scoot down" because I know what comes next.  

So I try to do the bare down thing and it worked!   It was still uncomfortable for the mid evil looking speculum to go in but I also had popped 2 ibuprofen and I didn't even feel the scrapes from the pap samples!  And then after another probe with the fingers it was done!! It was seriously the best experience of all the years I've ever had!  I still hate it.  But I'm glad I had some tips.  


Then I looked in the mirror and saw how mussed up and disheveled I looked and couldn't stop laughing.


But it's really got me thinking.... I swear I need to just start an organization where I can get some rich people to donate money and I can use it to provide more "relaxing" things for the yearly exam.  How about having plants in the offices, and even a TV!? I would be so distracted!  And what about aromatherapy and nice music?   

And what about the ceiling?  Have someone paint a mural up there why don't ya?   We don't want to see shitty pictures of an island or a farm animal.  We want more. We demand better!!!   Give us crossword puzzles and books!  Distract us!  I don't even want to know what you're doing! 

I could go on and on! I hope this post makes you giggle and maybe you'll think of it at your next exam and it'll make it a little bit easier for you. 

But seriously ladies share your thoughts below! 










That Time I Randomly Noticed One of My Photos Circulating As A Meme....

Tuesday, January 9, 2018







Okay y'all might already know this about me but I love memes.  I share them all over my personal Facebook page.  Well because of that I tend to also see a lot in my feed from all the different meme pages I follow.

Over the last couple of months this one photo kept sticking out to me. It looked SO familiar....

It looked like a photo of all my junk after I did the KonMari method of tidying..... But I have a grey car. So I reasoned with myself that it couldn't be the same car.  And I was always on my phone on Facebook so I didn't feel like going to my blog on my phone and trying to find the post.   The only reason I thought it COULD be mine is because for a couple of years I was writing blog posts on different cars I would get to drive for reviews.  And I do remember that I had a few loaner cars during the time I was KonMari tidying my stuff.


Fast forward to now... I'm writing up some new blog posts and reusing some photos from my blog posts, and one is about tidying up.... as I'm scrolling through my blog post I came right to it... the red car photo.  I immediately began googling and Facebook searching for the meme.  Finally I found it and I about crapped myself. LOL!!!!!

It's from this post about tidying my closet with the KonMari Method.  I took it while I had a loaner car that was red. 


Seriously how funny is that????   Have you ever been circulated as a meme from a photo you took?  
Have you seen this specific photo?    Too funny! Made my day!

Things You Get Excited About When You're Adulting

Thursday, June 8, 2017




Sometimes I sit around and think of random silly things that I know everyone can agree with and whenever I do that, I know it's time to make it into a blog post.


The inspiration behind this post was that I was sitting at home and thought of the small things that make me excited these days and I realized that 10 years ago those would be "lame" things to me.  That's how I know I'm adulting now. 


So without further ado, here's a list of things that can make you excited when you're a full blown adult!


1. Getting a cart at the grocery store that doesn't have squeaky jerky wheels.
2. When someone cancels plans and you end up having a free night to yourself.


3. Vacuum lines on the carpet.


4. When you actually can harvest and eat food from your own vegetable garden.


5. Canning.   Warning - this is an interest that usually comes from number 4 above.


6. Running an errand in an ugly outfit (no bra) without running into anyone you know.


7. Eating junk food without getting a stomach ache.


8. Finding jeans that fit and don't make you look like like an idiot.


9. A coupon (and a sale) on your heartburn medication.


10. Being able to stay up past 10 pm.


11. Sleeping an entire night without waking up to pee.


12. New curtains.


13. Buying your very first stand mixer.


14. Paying extra on your mortgage each month.


15. Getting a seat in a restaurant nowhere near crying babies.


16. Handing out candy on Halloween.


17. Earning cash back rewards on your credit card.


18. A check out line in ANY store with NO ONE in it.


19.  Meal planning.


20. Meeting up with a longtime friend for brunch or lunch.


21. Wineries. 


22. When someone else unloads the dishwasher.


23. Tucking yourself into bed with freshly washed sheets.


24. A new pillow.


25. Throw pillows.


26. Going to the library.


27. Sitting around reading your library books.


28. A tissue box hidden somewhere in your car.


29. Not having to cook dinner for a change.


30. Using a coupon at a restaurant or getting the early bird special.


31. Letting your dog out in the morning and not having to see another soul or utter a single word.


32. Home and garden type magazine subscriptions.


33. Coffee poops. (Hey, you know you're system's moving!)


34. Going to bed early.


35. Looking at New Year's Day as a day off work instead of a hangover nursing day.


36. The History Channel.


37. Purchasing new socks.


38. Wearing "granny panties" and not giving a *$&%.


39. Being in total control of the thermostat.


40. Remembering someone's name that you've only ever met once before.





So is there anything else to add?

Outfit of the Day - Mint - and Bloopers

Thursday, January 26, 2017










Today's post is pretty damn funny and I wanted to share some funny blooper OOTD photos. So on a serious note I'm wearing a mint green LuLaRoe Julia dress with OS leggings.   But that's not what this post is about. 

You see the other week I shared a photo of me in LuLaRoe on my personal Facebook page, (it's the outfit in this post)  noting that my neighbor's truck was in the background. As a joke I tagged my neighbor and said 'you're welcome for the free advertising." 



This was his response.   It was epic and everyone was cracking up over it.

So the next day I went to take some photos outside and I noticed he had stuck a Grounds Guys sign in our yard.   I ran outside to post with it but I set my tripod and camera too far away so it wasn't picking up the signal from my remote.  I was began getting frustrated (as per usual) and had a few choice words to say.   Anyways, when I reviewed the photos I was cracking up because of how pissy my face looks when I'm trying to get the pictures to take.




 



Ah, I finally got it!

UGHHH LuLaRoe! [A Confession & A Real Ass Review]

Wednesday, January 11, 2017




Ugh Ugh Ugh UGHHHHHHHH! It pains me to write this.  No, seriously.  BRB while I go bang my head against a wall.   

AHHHHH Hold on. I can't even type this right now.   

Ok fine, here goes.  

Sigh.....
Soooo uhhh, I own a pair of LuLaRoe leggings?   I mean I guess that's not a question, it's a fact at this point. Wait wait! Don't click away. I know you might want to because I would have before all of this went down.  And before you fret....no, I'm NOT a consultant and I never will be. 

Now first of all you all know how i feel about products like that and in-home parties.  I mean I wrote an entire blog post about it here


Well, LuLaRoe was something I always avoided like the mother flippin' plague that it has become.  People are obsessed with these damn leggings and they search for the design they like like a mad person.  It turns out, not every consultant gets the same stuff so if you see a design you really like, you have to hunt for it.  Now, that's all way too much work for me.  



If I want leggings I'll go to TJ Maxx and buy some on clearance.  James didn't mind the hunt though.  You see on Christmas Day I opened one of my gifts from him only to discover... GULP.... a pair of Chihuahua LuLaRoe leggings!   Now I knew these existed because many people have messaged me to show me a picture of them (always with the disclaimer that they know I  don't like LuLaRoe but they thought of me when they saw them).
  

So anyways, I asked James how he found them and he said he asked his sister (a LuLaRoe consultant - you can find her page here) if they had any Chihuahua ones.  She said she'd hunt around for some and she found them and he bought them.  He said they were $25. 



So I loved them right away because they have chi-chis on them and they were from James.  

Then....
I put them on. 
I PUT THEM ON!!!!!
I wore them with a tunic top and some comfy ass boots.  

OMFG YO! 

They were so soft and comfortable right away. Everyone always says they feel like butter. THEY DO!!! AHHHH! What the hell?!?!?! 

So honestly I figured I'd just give you a real ass review of what I really truly think as someone who isn't afraid to tell it how it is! 


They feel so good...
Really, they do.  They are super soft and super cozy.  They don't squeeze me funny or ride up or fall down.  I could literally wear them as my skin and keep them on day and night.  



They are adorable...
The designs really are so cute.   



They are reasonably priced so far...
I mean if these end up falling apart in two months I'll be super pissed.  $25 for a pair of leggings is still a lot to me so I wouldn't be buying a million pairs.  But as long as they maintain their good quality I won't mind investing in 2 or 3 pairs total.  



They don't hold in my gut...
Unfortunately I wish they were control top like I normally wear because I hate my midsection be all floppy sloppy everywhere. So I will have to dress in a way that helps conceal my belly. 



I don't really NEED them...
I am careful how I spend my money.  Honestly, I'm just as happy with cheaper leggings.  I can forgo the butter feeling.  So I won't be one of those people that gets carried away. If I see another pair or two that's cute I may get them but I'm not going to stock up on tons and tons because it's just not realistic for my budget.  


It's More than JUST Leggings...
Honestly, I thought it was only leggings but no LuLaRoe offers a ton of comfortable, colorful, flowy tops and dresses.  I am obsessed with dresses and tunics and long tops that I can wear over leggings so I'm in Heaven now !



So there..I frickin' frackin' fruckin' admitted to owning some, wearing some, and liking some of those damn leggings.   

So why was I so against them before this? Well, could it be that maybe the whole craze of consulting for products such as dietary supplements, diet plans, and skin products has ruined it for me? Yes, absolutely.   I still don't want people bugging me about buying some.  I prefer to shop privately and quietly on my own terms.    I also was never of a fan of how you  just get added to the groups. But knowing what I know now, that technically is kind of how consultants had to spread the word.  Now, the product sells itself so people seek out Lula groups. 

So since I began writing this post I actually purchased a UNICORN!  If you don't know what a unicorn is it's basically a hard to come by pair of leggings.  Lo and behold I got into a group my friend added me to and there they were. Chihuahua leggings with a black background. I mean they look just like Pixie don't they!








The other thing about Lula groups is that there are weekly giveaways in each group which is how I ended up winning the pair of leggings I wore in this outfit below with a LulaRoe top.
Then I went over to my future sister-in-law's house over the weekend and I shopped through her Lula and OMG.  CUTEST AND MOST COMFY STUFF EVER.




So now I own a ton of LuLaRoe stuff and I love it and GET why everyone else loves it.  And it's honestly not the same as all those other things that people sell.   So I get it, I really do.


Now if you've read this far it means you might also be a LuLaHoe! Just like me... and if that's the case you're in luck because I'm hosting an ONLINE LuLaRoe PopUp on Thursday, January 19th at 7 pm.  For 24 hours you will be able to shop my hosted party through the Facebook albums!  If you are interested let me know in the comments below and leave your email address so I can send you the link for the party. I will be there the whole time to help you with any sizing or product questions and so will Vicki!  It will take place through Vicki so if you want to join her group in advance follow this link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/LuLaRoeVictoriaLynn/ 


So.... now that I got that off my chest... what do YOU think about LuLaRoe?  Have you been a LuLaHoe for a long time now?

Why I Think Periods are Truly Horrific

Monday, October 24, 2016




Okay, fair warning - if you are a guy, you may want to skip reading the post.  I'm sure the last thing you want to hear about is our "time of the month."  But ladies, let's talk about this for a second.  Just think about it... think about how horrific periods truly are.   It's like... what did we ever do to deserve such an obnoxious, hellish week not once in a while but EVERY MONTH! 


So today I'm letting it all out in a rant... I'm just gonna call out a period for what it really is...horrific!    That's right, I said it! I mean let's just look at all the hellish aspects of a period.




[CRAMPS]
First of all, as if the fact that you have to bleed isn't bad enough you have these horrifying things called MENSTRUAL CRAMPS! And of course they aren't just like regular cramps, no they feel like Satan is dancing around inside your body kicking and twisting your ovaries.  By the way, don't google image menstrual cramps because the picture explanation of what they are makes it hurt even more!


[CRAVINGS]
Bye-bye diet.  Hello chocolate, carbs, sugars, fats, and everything else I can dream up while I'm trying to concentrate at work.  I mean I've been so starved for chocolate that I've even raided my own cupboards only to end up feasting on chocolate chips...yea, the ones that come in the bag for BAKING.   Am I stoned? No, just bleeding.  Don't mind the appetite!


[BITCHINESS]
We always catch hell for being moody and irritable during and before our periods.  I mean you can go from laughing at a movie to bawling all in a matter of seconds.  So what... I wanna punch people in their faces for even coughing too loud....leave me alone! If you were dripping like a faucet you'd be a bitch too!


[Gas & Bloating]
As if bleeding wasn't bad enough, say hello to gas and bloating.  No I'm not pregnant, that's just my swollen belly, now go away.   And the gas.  I mean hello.... haven't you heard the term "period farts" before? Yea, it's barbaric and it's truly disgusting.  What the hell is going on down there?!?!?


[Blood]
At it's core, a period is basically when you bleed.  And no they don't mind a drip here or there.  It can be like a frickin' faucet.  Good God. 


[Options]
I always LOL at the two options for periods.   You can either wear an enormous pad that reminds you of a diaper, or you can shove a plug up there.  Because the first thing we want to deal with is poking and prodding around down there to stop the damn leak.  Oh and don't lose that string!  Unless you wanna set yourself into a psychopathic panic for .2 seconds when you think OMG WHERE IS IT??!?!?!?


[Tampon Struggles]
Okay, it's not just that simple though.  You can't just plug it and go about your day.   Because then you have to deal with things like sneezing and coughing where for a split second you think "OMG did it move?".  And of course you have to pee but there's times when you don't feel like you fully emptied your bladder because you have something poking you down there that's kind of getting in the way.   Oh and it's just a joy to pee on your tampon string.  YUP.    Also, have fun pooping.   I mean is it even possible to poop with a tampon in?   UGH!


[Timing Sucks]
No sooner do you get through period week, does it come back around!  3 weeks is not ample time.  Besides, the week before your period can sometimes be full of bitchiness and bloating.  So essentially you have just 2 weeks.  Come on, can't it just come like once a year?!


So yea... I'm sure I missed a few hellish aspects but feel free to chime in below with whatever it is YOU hate most about periods.

15 Awkward Moments that Happen to EVERYONE [Admit It]

Wednesday, July 20, 2016





I'm a firm believer in the statement of life being way too short to take it all seriously.  That being said, sometimes there's stuff that happens that can be so embarrassing you want to cry or scream or maybe even both.  So to help make light of all those embarrassing moments,, I present to you....15 awkward moments that happen to everybody at some point in their life. 

[1] Rolling Your Ankle or Almost Doing It
You're walking down the hall at work in your everyday heels, or maybe you're even walking down the street in your favorite wedges and all of a sudden it happens... that damn awkward roll where you nearly go crashing to the ground as your ankle gives out under you.  Maybe that's not even what actually happens but that's what it seems like happens so we'll just stick with that.  I don't know about you but my first instinct is to just keep looking forward and walking like it didn't happen. And for the next 10 seconds I pray that no one was behind me.  And it's just as bad when you ALMOST do it and catch yourself just in time but still have a mini-heart attack. 

[2] Saying Hi to Someone that Doesn't Reciprocate
Okay, so you're in a hallway or on a sidewalk coming straight towards someone else, and even though you don't know them you know it's common courtesy to say hello.  So there you go... "Hi".  And NOTHING.   In fact, they even stare right past you. Whatever, right? Nah, for the next minute you sit there stewing like "WHAT THE HELL WHY AM I SO NICE!??!?  AM I UNLIKED AROUND HERE??" 

[3] Waving at Someone That's NOT Waving at You
You're sitting in the food court at the mall, and you look over and see someone waving at you.  They keep waving at you. You squint but don't recognize them.  Then you squint again and confirm that they are indeed looking right at you.   So you wave back.   Then you suddenly look behind you and see someone standing and waving back at them.  You realize they weren't waving at you. So what do you do?  UGH!

[4] Farting When You THINK You're Alone
Maybe you're on a walk, and you don't notice the guy on his porch, or you're in a store where you swear no one is in the next aisle. Maybe you even let one squeeze out at your desk.  "PFFFT"
And then of course you notice someone nearby and you race to get away, praying they don't realize it's you.   And if it smells as someone walks towards you, good luck with that one buddy. 


[5] Farting When You KNOW You're Not Alone
It seems to always happen at work, you get up from your desk to go pee, not realizing how gassy you are until you sit down and a surprise fart comes out.  Of course it's right after Joann from the cube next to yours is washing her hands and says hi to you as you go in. "Damnit now she KNOWS that was me". Even though everyone farts, we still seem to struggle with not feeling embarrassed about it. 

[6] Choke Coughing/Talking
I don't even know what the scientific name is for this but I'm sure there is one.... you'll be talking to someone and mid conversation you suddenly cough/hiccup/choke on a combination of spit and air.   You try to keep going but you feel soooo red in your face. What the HELL WAS THAT?!?!?! 

[7] The Nighttime Body Jerk
Nothing is worse than the body jerk that happens seemingly every night as you drift off to sleep.   Sometimes you have a weird dream as you are falling asleep that you are running and then trip, and then there goes the jerk.  I don't care who you are, you gotta admit it you always get a shot to the heart of anxiety and embarrassment before you realize "who gives a shit what my partner thinks, I'm tired, goodnight!"

[8] The Accidental Text
Okay, even if it was when you were a teenager, you gotta admit that this has happened to you. Either it's some juicy gossip you text to the wrong person...like the person the gossip is about... or you accidentally text your crush a racy compliment that you meant to say ABOUT HIM not TO HIM!!!!   Who cares about how you recovered...it still frickin sucks!

[9] Choking On Your Food
Choking on your food for the split second when you think you may die, and then realizing, you can easily swallow the spaghetti noodle is like that mini freakout in your head that no one else even notices but you feel traumatized about.   It's the sole reason I avoid eating mozzarella sticks in public.

[10] Holding Your Poop
Don't act like you haven't! I don't care if it was after a one night stand at a guys house where you're trying to pee without pooping because you know he'll hear, or if it's at a party where you know there's a line outside.  It's the worst. How can anyone live like that? How can you even be comfortable that way. You can't even sit right in your seat! Then you start thinking of legit excuses. " Umm I have to go buy cigarettes from the store even though I don't smoke..." or "Oh I forgot to let my dog out".   Just so you can go home and sh*t! 

[11] The Office Coughing Fit
Why are we so embarrassed to have coughing fits at work? Is it because we hate everyone asking if we are okay? Or because they assume we are contagious?  You know what I'm talking about too.  You rush to the hallway or the bathroom and unleash your coughing fit but on the way down you were nearly holding your breathe before you burst into coughs.  Then you consider going home early just so you can frickin cough!

[12] The Awkward Selfie
Okay, who cares... a selfie near the lead singer of the concert you're at is totally cool...so why the hell do you feel so awkward when you are taking it.  It's like you know everyone's judging you as they watch. Even if they just took one themselves.  For some reason, selfies in a public place will always make us feel awkward, even if just for a second. 

[13] The Dreadful Decline
Whether you have a legit excuse or not, nothing is worse than "I'm sorry it's saying your card is declined."   I always enjoy the excuses we give.  Oh, whoops, wrong card.... or maybe Oh whoops, I forgot to transfer money to that account (yeah, okay), either way the embarrassment is almost enough to make you about face and run out of the store without your impulse buy.

[14] Holding Up the Line
Okay, so you're at the grocery store and it's packed and you're up and they're scanning your goods and then it happens....one of your items has no sticker. They ask if you remember the price.  Of course your mind races as you think of prices but secretly assume they are judging you and thinking you're lying to try and beat the system.  Someone has to go and look at the price so you stand there waiting.... or maybe you need stamps or the register won't read a coupon right and you're waiting for the manager on duty to get to the cashier calling for help. You feel hot and burny.  You refuse to turn around because you just KNOW everyone's glaring at you.  It's like THE worst anxiety in the world. Just get me outta here!!!!!!!!!

[15]Eating Sushi on A First Date
Why are we so paranoid of how we chew when we sit across from the opposite sex on a first date?  I guess really it's just sushi being so big that it's like okay, is it acceptable for me to just shove this piece in my mouth? I mean you don't take bites of sushi right? RIGHT?! Maybe I've been doing it all wrong this whole time! 

So come on.... can't you admit that you have experienced at least like 5 of these?

Do You Remember... (A Post for Kids that Grew Up in the 90's)

Friday, June 3, 2016




I like to write posts that sometimes have no purpose other than to entertain my readers and bring back good memories.  So today's post is dedicated to those of us born in the late 80's (I was 1986) that grew up in the 90's and remember all things... well... 90's.




All things Nickelodeon
Hey Dude, Salute Your Shorts, Legends of the Hidden Temple, Rugrats, Doug, Ahh! Real Monsters, and soooo much more.  Do you remember Stick Stickly? I do! I even have his address memorized because of the way he'd sing it at the end of each show. "Send it to me, Stick Stickly, PO Box 963, New York City, New York State, 10108!"   Do you remember Face?? I loved him!!! He was a goofball!! And I also loved Little Bear, Franklin the Turtle, and a plethora of other things that I only remember when I see them.  TV was the shiiiiit back then! Long live Blues Clues!

Skip It
Skip it was awesome, what a simple way to stay active for hours.   I also loved my Razor scooter.   And when I was stuck inside I loved Simon, Trouble, and Bop It.  It's the simple things in life.

Oh Those Books
Babysitters Club and Goosebumps. Ohhhhh yea!!!

Drinking Outta Cups
For some reason, my favorite thing was the little jelly jars that had animals on them that you could use as tiny glasses anytime you wanted a drink.  

Halloween Costumes
They were so corny but so exciting.  I was a power ranger one year and a barbie another year. Both times I wore a plastic mask that nearly suffocated me but yet I still kept it on.  

Neighborhood Gangs
In my "hood" there would be 15-20 of us every night that ran around the neighborhood. We were all different ages but no one cared.  We ran through peoples yards and they didn't even mind.  We stayed out till the street lights came on and our feet and hands were green from grass stains.  Those were the freakin' days man. We all knew where everyone was by where their bike was parked, too!

Scrunchies
