wow i think i got some contact cheer out of that ;)
Yay! Life's so darn crazy it's nice when we get a chance to slow down and enjoy it for a minute.

Got my TPR order in today. Naturally I had to get the FOTW! Also reordered another 30ml of Banana Mint Milkshake. And you know what? This is my new favorite flavor. I can't put it down this week. I hope TPR continues to come out with some more new flavors. Also ordered 5ml samples of Magic Melon Medley and the Burley whatever tobacco one (Just so Jonathan doesn't through another tizzy, lol). Asked for sample of Candied Cavendish to boot!

I'm having one of those simple life moments tonight that make my hair tingle. Figure my fellow gourmet juicers can relate so I have to share! You know, those little moments where everything is perfect!

I have two freshly cleaned still pretty new and shiny mini PT3's rolling with new fresh heads. Dueling TPR flavors rolling, Banana Mint Milkshake and Angel Sauce. Just poured a nice cocktail, a new favorite, Bacardi Torched Cherry and Coke, a real stiff one if you know what I mean! Sat down on my big chair with feet up on the ottoman in front of the warm fireplace. Fired up my laptop to check in and say hello. No work tomorrow, office closed for good Friday, no worries! Decided I need some tunes so I turned out the lights and put on some studio noise cancelling headphones I bought myself for Xmas :) Love these Audio Technicas! Take notice Dr. Dre, half the price and their sound crushes yours!

Puff...Puff....who to listen to? Remembering back to summertime in TN two years ago when I attended Bonnaroo for the first time. There was an afternoon I'll never forget when my buddy and I (college roommate) sat down under a big tree in a field on the farm, by "Which Stage". Band came on, "Blind Pilot", we both looked at each other, never heard of them. Turns out they are a singer songwriter outfit and they played one great tune after another, great sound, uplifting lyrics, who could ask for more as we basked in the June TN sun with a cold one in our hands and not a care in the world. Then they played a tune called "Half Moon" and the hair on the back of my neck stood up as I sat their in amazement!

I tell you this cause I'm listening to that song right now on my headphones, vaping gourment juice, and everytime I listen I close my eyes and it takes me back to that warm summer day, such a happy place. Yes, my friends, life is good!

Oooops, that's all, nothing to see here...LOL. Cheers!
And heres why I love this thread so much, lol. We can just all chat like friends, none of the censorship of the other thread, for lack of a better word.
The friendly ribbing and jokin is another big reason:)

Brett - that sounds fantastic and gave me goosebumps! If only those times could happen more often - but then maybe they wouldn't feel so special, would they? It's great when everything lines up just right for a moment now and then! You're right -- LIFE IS GOOD! Thanks for sharing that!
I think you're right, that's part of what makes them so special. Glad to share and happy my little note touched you in some way :)

Love those kinds of nights. I think I am going to have to intentionally plan one for myself. Thinking Monday night...when everyone in my household goes back to work/school the next morning. Just too noisy and chaotic here to enjoy the peace for very long. (Tho noise cancelling headphones might help drown that all out.) Hmmm

Enjoy!

And BTW....I'm hugely enjoying my Nautilus filled with Angel Sauce along with another setup with Pineapple Cream from AHL. I also have another with Strawberries and Cream from AltCig. Reminds me a great deal of what I thought Stripper Cake was going to be like. It's one of those flavors that isn't great to me...but for some reason, I can't stop vaping it.
Do it, you deserve it! My house is pretty noisy and chaotic as well. My one saving grace is everyone goes to bed by 9 or 9:30 every night so I get my couple hours of downtime to watch a show, vape in peace, catch up on ECF, etc.

Noice cancelling headphones are a thing of beauty! I used to DJ years ago in college. Did a bunch of research and picked up a set of these Audio Technica ATH-M50's. Less than half the price of the Dre Studio's, got mine on Amazon for like $120. Sound better too. Get compliments on them when I travel for work.

Glad you're enjoying the Angel Sauce :) Haven't tried Altcig. That Strawberry and cream sounds nice.

I love music big time. Seems at home I rarely remember to turn some on but when I do, it ALWAYS lifts my mood or relaxes me. Thanks for the reminder. I'm going to take a look at those headphones, although I should just take my son's Dre's and use those. (He never uses them anymore.)

I like headphones when I'm working, I have the $40 skull candy ear buds. Theyre pretty good, they make bass inside your head, lol. I live in the boondocks, so I play the stereo at home unless my gf aint tryin to hear it, lol

Skull candy earphones are good. I got them at TJ Max or Marshall's on a whim (I like skulls and they were hot pink) Plus my friend said they were good. I've had about 10 different earbuds and they are the best. Really clear and loud sound quality. And they were only $10

Same here, can't get enough. Always listening to tunes! I have a 100GB ITunes library with like 16,000 songs. That's my other little hobby. Before someone calls me out, I should note that from an audio standpoint, those headphones technically are not noise cancelling. They are studio monitoring headphones. But trust me, put them on, crank them up, and you won't hear any of the noise or distractions around you. And yeah, definitely, steal your son's if he's not using them. Just in case, here's the ones I picked up:

this what cheered me up today, it's just really random, a quote from the character Nite Owl in The Watchmen

"I’ve heard all the psychologists’ theories, and I’ve heard all the jokes and the rumors and the innuendo, but what it comes down to for me is that I dressed up like an owl and fought crime because it was fun and because it needed doing and because I ...... felt like it.”

Yes, they have different models. The $10 ones have smaller magnets and no volume control, but they sound good too. Plus the little case is nice too, I'm sure I probably wouldve broken them by now if it wasnt for that nifty case
