I love my Keens so much!

6th Gear: Needs MOAR Pimp!

My fiance and I did about 90% of our holiday shopping online with about 80% of it from Amazon. We made one trip last night to the mall and target but overall spent no time in lines or battling through crowds. Compared to 5 years ago, I really appreciate how easy it has become.

Or if the fat lady is using AT&T herself, the call fails.
