    I never worry about matching colors. I buy mostly black and silver mods and usually buy silver or gunmetal attys. If a kit comes with a matching tank like the luxe 2 did then that’s fine.
    I like matching but don’t go out of my way. I think simple black on black looks pretty cool.

    How do you like your Solo?
    I like it really well. I bought it to replace my Pico just before I won that Swag 2. It feels great in the hand and the buttons are real clicky.

    I bought the gunmetal to match my attys, but didn't realize the leather part was camo :|. I was going to paint over it, but decided I really don't mind it now.

    yeah typically i stick with all black or orange if they have it ;)
    but they were out of the all black....figured blue would be ok....and thought why not buy a blue atty to go with it....except that it doesn't go with it :sneaky::lol: eh it's alright, it looks ok, and I can use the blue on my other black mods and put a black rda on there instead.... that's what I get for trying to be adventurous :lol:

    Last year or so I expanded into some colors. Right now I have a blue Zlide on a blue Aegis mini. The blues don’t match at all:lol:

    I love that camo pattern. And I love the mod. I think it's my most comfy mod. Glad you like it!

    I tried three new mixes... none worth repeating. Not bad, just not notable.
    We finally got the water lines/filtration system fixed (only three trips into town). Living this far out is great because it’s isolated and beautiful, and awful because it’s isolated and any store is 35 minutes away. We got finished in time to stop on the screen porch and catch the last few minutes of this....

    Ever tried FA pepper? It's not peppery pepper, it's like warm spice--but you only need a hint of it. HIC's black pepper ice cream is delicious. :)
    I haven't. I'm very adventurous when it comes to food. I've probably eaten more things which many folks would run away from. In fact some of the foods ran away from me.
    But, somehow, inhaling pepper doesn't feel right.
    In fact, when I think about it, when I cook and crack pepper into foods I often sneeze for a while.
    Nah, I think I'll pass.

    Man I got the first half of my video review done. The part where I talk about the stuff. Like, I'm fairly certain I talk about the warranty card for 10 minutes alone. To be fair, it was interesting.

    Now, if I had talent I would do the other half where I assemble and vape it but that's not happening now. I mean, I could do the.... no, I couldn't.

    I don't get why I'm so tired today? Ehhch.

    I must have missed what you're reviewing. But, don't spoil the surprise, just make sure to let us know when and where you posted it.

    It really is beautiful here. It’s a long drive to get here, but I swear two days here feels like a long vacation!
    I think I discovered one tiny problem with my mixes. Somehow in the midst of chores I think I put plum crumble in the pb cookie tank, and vice versa. Just for your own reference, pb/ crumble topping/plum is a muddled mess :lol:. I just brought spectres, so fresh coils in the a.m. and a second shot for those two mixes.

    Sure hope they taste better after that :)

    Long underwear is counterproductive, unless you are going to be in an unheated environment for a long time.

    Better to get a pair of full zip overpants, whether insulated or uninsulated depending on outside temperature, so that you can take them off while inside.

    Otherwise, you just overheat when indoors.

    Better to wear outer layers, rather than inner layers, in a variable environment.

    If you are wearing skirts, or dresses, go with a long lift coat, you know, those long down coats that get down below the calf.

    Heat packs are your friends too.

    You can find gloves with little pockets for teeny heatpacks.

    They are available with adhesive, in larger sizes that you can wack on your kidneys, or torso, for a heat boost when you need it.

    They make them with adhesive, for the feet, to keep your tootsies toastie too.

    You probably don’t want to be wearing long underwear if you are going to be inside all day.
