Today’s the day!!! I am so damn excited. I’ve prepared by going to a personal trainer for five months. I hired a stretch coach. And I’ve had three gel shots to my knees. The guides are meeting and one of them is going to be stuck with me!!!!! Poor guy. But now it’s time to meet the gorillas. I’m so excited, I could throw up.

I’m sure your prep will turn into a one in a lifetime experience! You need to compile all of your human photos into a collective showing. Your eye is phenomenal!

How does rewards become regards? The g is not that close to the w.

Julie Victory I had to do this prep because I am so damn out of shape. And I didn’t go to the trainer every day. But I did work on my daily step count.
