Starting a theme parallel.
Best new Barbie since "I'm Breaking Our Date" Ken - Hitchcock Barbie.
Happy moments captured. I wanna be the cat. I imagine this is also what Steve Dunn looks like after 8-9 beers.
This is an interesting idea for jewelry except that if you lose one you have to wait 17 years to get a replacement. Cicada earrings.
