A package and a surprise should never be rushed! Unless you know it has @brisby's cookies in it then all bets are off.

Off went some DM's to the people I knew to have my address and the answer finally came back. I knew what it was and why I had received it. On the floor next to my computer it went.

Yes, you read that correctly.

I, Snook, received a present and didn't open it in 20 seconds!

Gifts, no matter who sent them, where they come from, or what it is, are too special to hurry through. Throw into the mix being unwell for over a week. The thought of makeup, doing my hair, was not going to be an option. I waited and every day looked at a package that I could not open until today.

The Ironic Twist

Three months ago I did a karaoke video for Aussie KARAOKE FUNDRAISING that @jackmiller was heading up. Everyone that participated in it received a prize. It was a ton of fun trying to do the Australian song with @inthenow and @simgirl. Unfortunately, it did not work out the way I wanted it to. Shhhhhh...... Don't spread that rumor around!! Off the three of us went to make our own videos.

The Twist continues..........

Over the last few weeks, I have started a new podcast called Pants are Optional.

I interview Steemians about anything except STEEM. The S word must not be mentioned during the interview. It's a great way to learn more about who is behind the screen names we see every day. The podcast is pre-recorded. The links to the episodes can be found in #pants-are-optional-episodes channel in the Steemit Ramble under The 'Rambling Radio' channels. Thank You @Shadowspub!!

This morning I was lucky enough to interview @Jackmiller for an upcoming show. What better time to open my gift then in front of the person that made it all possible? The video below shows me opening my present, along with a bit of a sneak peek of what my day was like!
