Hello. Hi guys. We just had we just recorded an intro and Icked myself. No, I yeah. So we're redoing it. So welcome. Hi. We're glad you're here. I was like trying to put the bugs in your ear. I was trying to think of like a cuter, more fun way to say hi. And then that led to me singing. And then we had to delete it. We had to cut that. So welcome everybody. Happy Friday. Happy in good faith Friday. That is. Of course. Better type of Friday. What? Oh yeah, exactly. For sure. So this episode honestly is just gonna be us catching up. A chat fest, if you will. A chat fest. I feel like I've been doing a lot this week. And I also feel like when's the last time we FaceTimed? Well, you've been at my house. That's that is true. I have been at Joe House about Friday. Friday. Okay, so I I came over Saturday and I've been with you every night. No, you came over Friday. I came over Saturday night. Oh yeah, yeah. After work. So what's been up, bro? So I went to Disney World on Saturday, which was pretty sweet. I haven't been there since college. It's a good time. Love Disney. I could see myself if I allowed myself to dive in, I could become a Disney adult for sure. Let yourself just fully let go and indulge. Immerse myself into the Disney world, if you will. Yeah, I I'll start by saying, you know, to each their own. But there is something about Disney adults that does scare me a little bit, and I can't put my finger quite on it. Yeah, I mean it's scary to get that into anything. That I that's okay. You just put your finger on it. Yeah, I think that's it. It could not nothing against any people who like Disney and I love Disney. No, I love Disney too. And if I like I said, if I allowed myself I could. I don't think I would be like crying seeing the castle or meeting Mickey Mouse. Those are the videos that are playing in my head. But near Mickey. No, I'm scared. But the videos that I see of the people cr the adults crying over Mickey Mouse, I'm like, hmm. That's frightening. It's a young college boy, probably in a suit. Yeah, I'm just imagining his face. And they're like, what the freak? Yeah, the guy's like Mickey's like, uh okay. But yeah, I feel like there are different like versions of Disney adults, and I feel like we could be our own version of a Disney adult. I do, I like the lore, and I will catch myself like in a full YouTube deep dive of like the underground tunnels at Disney or I well, I don't know if it's weird or not if people do this, but I love looking up rides and watching videos. We just did that the other day. POV. We just did a POV of Guardians of the Galaxy. Oh yeah, and it was fun, let me tell you. I've never been on it, but that is such a fun ride for that was that in Epcot? Yeah. As soon as we got to Epcot, it said that that ride was temporarily closed. What time did you get there? Like five. Oh. And then as we were about to leave, it was opened again. But the wait time was like over an hour. We went to Epcot and we were we got there like when the park opened and we ran to that ride. And actually still 90 minutes. Yeah, so did everybody else. Everyone else sprinted. And I'm like, wait, what I actually didn't know what we were running to. I was just following the pack. You didn't even know that you were going to a ride. I did like half-see where it took you.
SPEAKER_01I was just saying, here we go.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I was just running along and then, like, you know, half mile in. I'm like, I'm just kidding, it wasn't half a mile, but a little bit in. I was like, oh, okay, yeah, we're running to the ride. Okay, I understand now. Yeah, but Guardians of the Galaxy was super fun. I liked it a lot. Maybe one day when I go to Disney again. I I think that we should do a Disney day soon because like all of our friends have passes. Yeah, but it's summertime. Yeah, that's everyone's at school. Yeah, kids everywhere. I'm not gonna be able to rhyme out rides. No. I feel bad for my future kids because I will do the same thing that my parents did to me and I will force them on rides. They're either I'm not gonna force them on rides, but if they don't go, they're not coming with me again. Okay, yeah. I'm not gonna like okay, because who knows what health per like reasons can go wrong. But I'm not gonna force my kid on ride. If if they have something wrong with them, like I don't know, asthma or something, I'm like, okay, no, you can sit this one out. Just don't ask me to do anything else again because you're not coming. But uh mama's trying to ride the roller coaster. I don't care. I will go to Disney Coaster. Genuinely don't care. No, I will. I will get a babysitter and they'll sit home. Or, you know, I'll I'll plan something fun for them to do. They can go to Peppa Pigland. They'll go to grandma granddad's house. And I'm gonna go to Disney. Uh what were we even talking about before we got on our Disney? Oh, you went to Disney. Yeah. But I went with my friend and her kids and her mom and her sister. It's unnecessary information. But I was showing the six-year-old, because he's like old enough and tall enough that he can ride some of the rides. So I showed him a video of the Mount Everest ride in Animal Kingdom. And I think I ruined that because he's like, I'm not going on that. No. No, I was just kidding. It's not even like that. It's fine, it doesn't even go upside down, I swear. He's like, no. And then I kept asking him, like, are you gonna there it is? Are you sure? It's like I'm not going on that. Okay. Alright, well, you can sit here with your sister. That's fun though. Yeah, it's always fun to go to and it was sweet to go with children. Because I only went like whenever I was in college and when we were kids. Yeah. And so the my friend's daughter, she got to meet a princess, and it was just the most darling thing I've ever seen in my life. That was the cutest video ever. Well, this week, guys, let me address the elephant in the room. I'm back on TikTok. Follow me. I don't even know my user. Amber something. I'm sure it has the Amber Rydell somewhere in there, but I don't know. It's disconnected. Why? I'm not banned. Oh, I thought I got banned like you are on Twitter. Did we ever talk about that? I don't know. I'm banned on Twitter for some reason. I have been for years. And they won't let me in. No, I just deactivated my stuff. Reactivate it. Go watch my stuff. Go like my other social media to be addicted to, though. Yeah, me neither. Except I was up until 1 p.m. or 1 a.m. last night editing my video. At least you're creating. Yeah, I will say I've been creating, but my eyes were still burning last night. So truth. I'm not sure if that's any better. But yeah, guys, I've been back on TikTok. I got a hundred followers. 100 new followers? No. Oh, like six. Shout out. TikTok. I feel like I can be my authentic self. Instagram? Because she's mistaken. We're not on TikTok. So I feel like no one is on TikTok. Yeah. I think that's a good thing. But like all the people that are on Instagram are also on TikTok and they're serious. I I had TikTok in like 2022 or 2023 or something. I posted like three TikToks and then I deleted it and never looked back. So now I have it again. I'm like, oh, no one follows me. Like, I'm just gonna post whatever I want. And by whatever I want, it's just me sewing. Doing my stupid videos. But it's a really fun and I like it. And I have a good support system behind me with my friend Katie and Sabrina. They're my supportive queens. And it's really fun. And I'm excited to just go like record something when I get home. I recorded a TikTok of or I recorded a video that I was gonna post on TikTok of me cleaning my room, but I do feel like that's getting into exposure, exposing yourself. Yes, exactly. Precisely. Um don't need to see where it started. Y'all don't need to see me packing all my clothes away, like picking up off the float. So I don't know. I don't know like what my niche is gonna be because I also feel like I'm gonna exhaust myself with having to like make stuff every day. But I think this week I'm gonna, or tonight, I think I'm gonna go home, work on some earrings, maybe record that. And because I have a really cute pair that I think will do well on my Etsy website. But I also have a laptop case that I think I'm gonna make it. I'm very excited about. Can you make it for me as the prototype? For coin. Oh, I don't have coin. I can pay you in blocks. I'm just a baby. Just a baby. Yeah, so that's my TikTok endeavor. Stay tuned. Very nice. Follow me. Should we talk about the the main event yesterday morning? What was a main oh yes. I don't know how crazy it's gonna come across. It's it's not, but it is to us because what in the world? So yesterday morning, I was getting ready for work and Amber stood over and she's like, Can you turn on the lamp? So I went across my room to turn on the lamp, and I passed my window, and I like how to I said, What the freak? No, you walked by. You was like, What the? And then you took a step back and like a double take. It was like a sitcom.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_00Anyways, there was a herd of 20 cows in our backyard, which I don't know, it doesn't sound that crazy. The average farmer might not sound too crazy, but we don't live on a farm, we live in a neighborhood, like, and we don't really have cows in our neighborhood. We do have peacocks, yeah. We have peacocks. Last week was peacocks, now it's cattle. But that was just but the way that they were looking at you. Yeah. All of them, 20 cows just looking at me. But they didn't even like there were there was no one up in the house. You just happened to look out the window and you're like, come here. Because I thought the dogs got out or something, or something was getting eaten by an alligator. No, look out the window. A set of 20 cows just all staring at the house, like directly to us. I'm like, Well, what are they waiting for breakfast? What's happening? And that was just like really, really weird. Very weird. We have a lot of wildlife out there, but not cows. But I think our neighbor, one of our neighbors, he got some cows on his property. Yeah. And they like went around the fence into like in the lake. They were just all it's just so weird. It was so funny. And I the whole rest of the morning I was singing Wild Horses. Is it by Tom Petty? I don't know who sings that song. Rolling Stones. Rolling Stones? I don't know. Well, I was singing that song because that I just get the scene of them like running across the yard and then running to the other side. Yeah, then they started running around. It wasn't quite the same vibe as Wild Horses. I wish there were horses. Could you imagine how pretty that is? But now I kind of want to get like a cow or two. For milk only, though. For milk purposes only. That milk would be so nasty tasting. I don't even like milk like that. Me neither. Actually, at all. That would actually make me puke if I had raw milk. Oh, I guys, I wanted to share this story. Okay, this is like viewer discretion advised. Listener discretion advised. I'm just kidding. It was just about the armoire. I was gonna go pick up on Facebook, okay? The most beautiful pine armoire. I don't know if I'm saying that word right. Truly the most iconic piece. I got her down to 300. Well, it was only it was listed for 325. I haggled her down to 325. And I wore her down. She went to 320. She sold it to me for 300. I was so excited. It felt like Christmas the next day. After work, I was gonna go pick it up with my mama. And yeah, so she messaged me. She must have realized and like clocked what she had. I think he like hyped it up too much to her. And she's like, I don't know. And she's like, hey, Amber, I just wanted to let you know I'm not going to sell this piece anymore. And I'm like, Well, why not? Are you sure about that, mama? So I like sent her all these crying faces, like trying to gain some pity of some kind. I'm like, no. Oh wow, I totally understand, man. This thing. That was for my great grandmother. Dang. This piece meant a lot to me already. And she didn't sell it. And she's like, yeah, like I thought, or we're moving in a couple months, and I'm just not sure how much room I'm gonna have. So I was gonna sell it, but now she's like reevaluating. She's like, you will be the first person I'll reach out to if I sell it. And I'm like, Ask her the date that she's moving. And then when do you close? Huh? Message her. Hey, did it fit?
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_00Oh, y'all. It was the most beautiful piece. And I found I like reverse searched it on Google. $6,800 is what it was worth. Probably not. She probably listens to this podcast. Everyone listens, so you never know. I know. People from far and wide. So that was like the most depression or the most depressing. What? The most depressing thing that happened to me this week. I just really that was just a bad day. It was really sad. Did I tell you that IRS sent me a letter and they can't deposit my refund? What do you mean? So you don't get your money? I don't know. This is like the first year that I'm ever getting money back. So I'm like, this is amazing. Of course. They send me a letter. And then like we can't deposit this because something about like the account, or there was multiple reasons, but like either the account number was wrong or like two other things. I'm like, bro, I know my check it. I know my account number by heart. It's not wrong unless there was just like a typo. And I can't even like get in there to make an account to get in there and change the info. So I really have to sit down and do that. So that's one really cool update that I have. That's fun. And then my next one that really made me angry this week. So listener discretion advised on this as well. I like saying that. It doesn't make sense though. Listener discretion. So dossier. Has anyone ever ordered perfume off of there? Because if you haven't, I don't know. Raise your hand right now, wherever you are. Show of hands. Let me see them. Okay, put them down. Now open your eyes. Uh take a look around. You see everybody with their hand up? Anyways, uh, dossier. They sell like these dupe perfumes. Y'all know I don't be spending money on perfumes. I'm buying the dupe. And so I bought a couple off of their uh I was like replenishing mine, and I think I bought it in like November. And I've been getting these emails ever since, and I just was under the impression that they were a marketing email. Like, you know those Instagram things where you see, like, oh, sorry if you received this email. We accidentally sent you a hundred dollar coupon, but it's still like I thought it was like just one of those like scammy weird marketing emails. Cause it was like, your order has been shipped or your order has been placed. I'm like, okay, whatever. Click on the email. I see no product. I'm like, okay, marketing. I finally checked my order. I don't know. That's the thing. I thought that's why I thought it was a marketing email because I didn't place an order. And it just kept sending me email after email, month after month. Say, but uh I guess continue. Yeah. That's what you're saying. You just like spoil the whole, like, sorry. Spoil the whole surprise. No, it's nothing to spoil. But, anyways, I checked my credit card statement, which I should probably start doing. I very rarely do that. Me neither. That's what me and Katie were talking about. I'm like, yeah, I really checked my credit card statement. It's on autopay, like, I don't even know. Like, I just don't even think to go in there and look, blah, blah, blah. Like, I know what I'm spending my money on. Well, clearly I don't because I went in there for the past six months. I've been paying $40 a month for Dossier Plus account. You don't even receive product from this. You just pay $40 a month and it gives you store credit. That's a scam. That's like Fabletics. But Zaya has Fabletics. I don't know what he's got going on, but he has all this store credit and he'll like have 10 new items all the time. Well, guess what, mama? That's what's coming in the mail for me. I've got about 10 new perfumes coming. So I'll be smelling. No. I'm sorry. Not one. I can't buy it from you. Why? If there's one that I don't like, they're just replenishing of it. You caught yourself because that's actually what you're thinking. And then you said it out loud and realized how bad that sounded. I didn't say just kidding, though. I did I said that I meant to say that. I never said, oh, I'm just kidding. No. If one stinks. But that's why you were laughing, because you realize that's an outrageous thing. If one stinks. The thing about it is, is I'll probably still take it. I'll try to make it work. You can layer that. I can layer this with my other stinky stuff. No, so it was refunded for the last month, but I have $279 worth of perfumes coming. We should do a perfume smell video. Let us know if you guys want to see that. It's like this one smells good. Yeah. This smells like this one smells good too. People are just watching it like you know who's also a little bit slimy, but I love them anyways. I don't really care. Is Thrive Market. How are they slime? Because I had one item that I would get auto shipped each month. But whenever I would have anything else in my cart, they would ship the whole cart. Not just my item that's on auto ship. And this past month, whoa, I didn't even get that auto ship thing. And they still sent the random stuff that I had in my cart that I forgot about. Do you have any kind of credits or anything?
unknownNo.
SPEAKER_00Like, do you pay monthly? And does that go twice a year? I think it's like you pay once a year or something.
SPEAKER_01I don't know.
SPEAKER_00But they charge you, like, so those things in your cart, like they would charge you for them. Yeah, it's like a s like you buy them. Is that you need to like read the fine print in their contract. Yeah, but I usually don't get mad because it's always stuff that I want to get. If it's those little pedos, whatever those are. I need to get those again. It was actually those, I think those chicken sticks that I've been eating. So I wasn't mad in like some Olipops and some other things. Yeah, whatever. I'm fine with it. Dang, again? Ah, crap. Whenever you want to you like you want something, but feel guilty about like buying it yourself. Just add it into the carton. Oh, what? What the heck? What you whoa? I mean, I'll take it, but oh, I made that. Did you I didn't show you the finished picture of my American flag? Canvas bag. Wait, let me see. I can't see. Oh. You guys, I made a canvas bag. Again, subtle plug here. The canvas bag. I didn't make the canvas bag, but I made a little patchwork flag. I posted it on TikTok if you want to see. You should. That's really pretty. Very nostalgic. The heirloom piece. Yeah, it's giving Americana, except for the tag. I don't know what country that was made in, but that's not giving Vietnam Vietnam. It's not giving heirloom. It's giving fast fashion, but it's do some you should take the tag off and put your Amber and Stone tag. Is that illegal? I don't know. I don't think so. But do it. Boutiques do boutiques. Boutiques do it all the time. You should do also a red strap. I have three of these blue ones. So that actually took very, very, very long. It took me way too long to do that. Like this finger's very sore today. Someone left a comment on my TikTok. I don't even know who it was. It's like, girl, you need a thimble. So yes. You're right. Don't tell me what to do. Anything else you want to share? I think I'm all shared out. But thank you for asking. What about you? I'm looking through my camera roll to see if anything fun has happened to me. I guess I could do that. Bro, we need to post our dumps. Bro, I asked you to do it last week and you didn't. I was at work. I'm sorry. I have been spent myself out of my phone all day. So I could not access Instagram. Today it was so nice at work. We didn't have a wedding and I worked outside. And working by a lake, like with a lake view, it just makes work bearable. It's it was so nice today. Like the it was the most breezy, beautiful day. I was just happy to be alive. That's good. Well, should we get into our top ache? What does that remind me of? Rebecca. Uh yeah. If you guys know, you know. And if you don't, don't ask. Go ahead with the top. Today we're talking about things we pretend we understand, but we don't at all. Would you like to kick us off? My first one is well, okay, credit scores. I feel like I think that I understand them, and I I really truly don't. Can you check them or not? Okay, so there's a soft credit pool and a hard credit pool. I think when I went in to go try to remember whenever I needed a new car before I got mine? Yeah, so I think like they pulled mine pretty hard. Ruins your credit. I think they ran it like 12 times. Well you can check it on like FICO or something. I don't know. I don't understand. I don't know. I would check it on my my credit card thing. But I'll be like It was fantastic. Yeah, um I have a 790. And it's like, what in the world is a 790? Yeah. Don't know. I don't know. I think it's good. I think it's pretty good. I don't know what the highest is. I have 1,000. That's really good. It doesn't, I don't think it goes that high. I'm not exactly sure. Like, because I've heard like I've heard 800, and then I've heard that you can get like more than that though, I thought. But again, I don't understand it. I just understand it or not. My first thing, and this is not good, but long division slash division. I never learned it in high school. I acted like I did, but I never did. I don't know how to divide. Yeah, if you give me 144 and 7. Yeah, I understand long division. Er that's 12. Yeah, I think it was see. I know very seldom. 144. 20.57, 142857. It's not 12. No. I thought that 144 was divisible by seven. It's not, so 12 times 7 though. Is it? So 12 times 7 is 84. No way. Oh no, it's 12 by 12. Okay. 12 times 12. Okay. I meant 149, or maybe 49 is what the number is with 7. I don't know, yeah. But I can divide things by two beyond that. Don't know. Don't know how the line. Yeah, the little thing where you have a square root or something. Is that what long division is? No, I think square roots are a little bit different than long division, but they're both giving like 90 degree bases. I don't know what they are. And I just put up a front in school. I got through that the best I could. Never learned division. That just like jogged a memory. Like, did you ever have those classes? It was mainly math, where you just had to get past the subject. Like it it was such a hard like that. Like, I don't I didn't understand like a certain subject. And I'm like, okay, you just have to like get past this and like just try to try to get what you can get. Like try your best. Which this sounded like more moving in my head. But I just like didn't understand it. Yeah. In my I didn't learn anything. One of my class, my math classes, I had a bad grade. And it was like the last day of school. And I wrote my teacher a note, like begging her to bump me up. What did she say? I just gave it to her and left. And then I saw my like final grade, she did bump me up. So I'm gonna leave this here for you. She was the worst teacher I've ever had in my entire life. Don't say any names. I'm not. Okay. But mouth it to me.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_00Okay, yep. And I bet once I got into high school, my math teachers were great. I think that was like eighth grade or something. I had the same problem. Yeah, and I do blame my math skills on our poor math teachers. Because whenever I did have a good math teacher, she explained it to me and I understood it. I have the same story. Like then I'm in math in college. Was it algebra two where you had the good teacher?
SPEAKER_01Maybe. Who? Yeah.
SPEAKER_00That came through as she was a great teacher. I don't know what you're like mouthing words. I just don't want to out on about A. For being a great teacher. I don't want to give you that credit. No, yeah, she was an amazing teacher, and that was the first It was the first time I understood what those numbers were. I started seeing colors. Like it was just amazing. Yeah, and I had like A and B in that color. Same. I had a B. And in my previous class, I did have an F at one point on my midterm, I think. There's just some teachers who don't teach. Yeah. No, literally. This that class we watched movies and then In math? Yeah. It was like that one, I don't even know what it's called, but and then one of my friends in there, she was like putting gluing on like fake fingernails. Oh, I have the same story.
unknownReally?
SPEAKER_00Yes. I think I've just maybe talked to you about this. No, no, no. I in eighth grade, it was me and Caitlin. Caitlin's summer. Well, uh me saying I'm not outing names. You call her by her first and middle name. But she, I remember like she, it was either her or me. I can't remember. I think it was her because I probably wouldn't be seen doing that because I'm good at two shoes, but she was painting her nails in class, and like I just thought that was the most iconic thing ever. Yeah, this girl was gluing on like press-ons. That is so funny. And the teacher did not give a rip. Yeah. Man, I was gonna say something. But yeah, I was really, really like plagued with really bad like teachers. I just I don't know math, so I needed some good teachers all throughout learning math. Yeah, which is crazy because I was like in intensive math classes and then AP English. You were not in AP English. Yes, I was. I was. I was in AP English, I had Miss Bacero freak. I had Miss Spyers. Okay, cool. We were different. Yeah. I had AP English. Thank you though. Oh. Or maybe I had I don't know what I had. I think you might have had the intensive English. No, I had like all honors classes except for math. I was doing college readiness. There was one year for some reason I was in see, I was all over the place in school. People thought I was a smart girl. People thought that about me too, I think. I just gave off smart. Didn't think that about me. No, people actually thought that I was smart. And like I was smart in a lot of things, but mainly about like what color pants to wear with this color top. Like I did get best dressed in high school, so that's what I got into. I got into that. Yeah. So I did get dropped from my college courses in dual enrollment, but I did get best dressed. Oh win to win. Um, yeah. What else were we talking about? I'm sorry, this episode is kind of oh, we were talking about the the subject for today. Yeah. That's so yeah, we don't understand too much math. Don't throw too many numbers at me. Honestly, every time like in my tours, they like bring up any kind of like math, like, oh, what's the guess count for today? I'm like, well, okay, so five times four rows. I'm like, okay, 20, and then like 20 times two is 40. 40. And it takes me like 13 minutes to like even try to do the guest count. If there's too many chairs out there, if it's like over like four or five rows, which usually it is, I'm like, oh, I'll have to check with the venue consultants. I'm not positive today. And like the fiance is always like, Oh, there's 85. I'm like, okay, well, get out. I said, that's why I work at a wedding venue, okay? Yeah. It's tough. It really is. You do need math, you guys. But the thing is, is like you have your calculator. So all those liars that told me, like, you're not gonna have your calculator. I had my cal, I had my computer with me. And remember I use a calculator on a watch now. Yeah, exactly. Do you remember managerial accounting? What those exams looked like? Barely, honey. Google. The whole time. We weren't allowed to. We had no, we had our phones. Yeah, well, because of your class, my class was not allowed anymore. Like, because the uh we did a little bit of cheating in college. No, I don't know if I'll still get in trouble for that. I don't know. Allegedly. And they take away allegedly people would cheat in managerial accounting in college, and they the whole class would get in like a group chat and share answers. And your people who did that got caught or something and ruined it for my class and no phones, so yeah. Um didn't get credit for that class because my score was so low. Wow. That's crazy. Do you have another one? Oh, yeah, I have a ton. Okay, go ahead.
unknownLook through mine.
SPEAKER_00Health insurance deductibles. Oh, that's such a good room. What is a deductible? All I remember meets. I have three-year point, sorry. Bare minimum grasp just because I've had to deal with insurance myself a lot in the past couple years. But I don't I don't know what a deductible means. I just know that there's a certain amount of money that you have to spend out of pocket to get the free stuff. The free Yeah, and I don't even know if it's free because I'll still pay like a copay. But sometimes I don't pay a copay. Don't pay copay. And matter of fact, I was not billed for my MRI last time I went. Don't know. The word deductible. What does it remind you of? That commercial. No, that's not what it reminds me of. It reminds me of whenever we were young at the pediatrician with mom. She'd be I I would be standing with her at the window, and all I would hear is the lady saying, Deductible, deductible. And I'm like, what the heck is a deductible? Yeah, I just got my 12 shots. We just get out of here. But what commercial? I was thinking of dividend after dividend after dividend. I don't know. I don't know what commercial that is or what a dividend is. I think it's like something you get back. I don't know. I don't get that. Hardly understand insurance. I have no screwed myself over many a times with the plan that I have. Sorry, honey, you have to leave. I got my insurance in the back seat of the car whenever we were on vacation because I forgot to enroll. I thought enrollment started on December 25th, but it ended that day. So I was about to not have it, so I had to do it really quick. On the 25th? On like the 15th or whenever enrollment starts or ends, I guess. It's like dang they they stop it on Christmas. Gotcha! You were opening gifts. You should have been signing up for insurance. You should have been an open enrollment. My next one, which I wholeheartedly I do have to like agree with you. Like, I have no clue about insurance, but it's like also something that I do every year and I have like a grasp on it, but I also have no clue at the same time. But my next one is the rules of pickleball. I feel like whenever we were playing though, kind of regularly with those with that group, because we had to learn because they I feel like they're getting tired of us. We went to school? Two, three, two, one? I don't know. One one, two? Huh? Yeah. But I've we would have understood it if we went. That's one of those things where I'm like going through emotions and I'm like, okay, try to understand this for real now. Like for real, don't be that girl. And like I could not grasp it. I couldn't get it. I didn't understand. Right now though, I don't remember what the two numbers mean. Why you say 22, 221 or whatever? I don't know. I can't remember. The stock market and like investing. For sure. My Robin Hood probably is screaming at me right now. I don't manage it. No, I just do whatever my dad and Zaya say to do. And I did something that Zaya told me to do, and my dad's like, why did you do that? And so I don't know if I'm gonna be able to retire. So I just don't know. And Isaiah will be talking to me about what he's doing and his trades, and yeah, I I I don't even know the terminology that he uses, and I don't want to just blow off the conversation, so I try to like interact. Like, oh, so that's you're up then, right? Up where? What's up dog? Smells like up dog in here. Okay. Well, this one kind of goes along the lines of like insurance, but it's taxes. As you can see, I do have living proof of me not understanding taxes because clearly I didn't do something right. Well, I never got my check. They it's a direct deposit, they don't send checks anymore. But I said that I wanted a check in the mail. Oh, maybe they do. They're trying to not send taxes. I think they were trying to get away from it though. But I don't know. I don't understand taxes. I don't either. I actually it makes me mad to even think about taxes. I know we have to pay Caesar with what what's due, but like, come on. Let's be so for real right now. Like, how are you gonna tax me on my house that I bought, my land that I own, my income that I make. It's the income for me. Who you didn't work 40 hours this week. No, ma'am, you didn't. Maybe you did, but I bet it wasn't my job. I bet it wasn't at my work. I didn't see you there. Like, and then so you get it from you get it from every end, every angle. Anyways. Anyways, yes, taxes are super stressful, don't understand them, but yet I give off the impression that I do. Because grandma and granddad. And I know they're listening to this right now, and granddad's like probably nodding his head like. You know what? That's why we have Google and Chat GPT though. My next one, you'll probably agree, is like airline slash travel rewards from your credit card and like booking flights with points. Yeah. I don't know how that works. You have really good ones and mine kind of suck. Have you done it? You've done it. I've done it, but only because I have my like Chase Sapphire and you can, which maybe all credit cards are like this, and I'm just dense, but you can like book through the Chase portal and they have a certain portal that you go on there, you look at what hotel, like they don't have like I I don't know. They have flights mostly, but I don't know, it gets weird. But when it comes to like how do I say it? Like, not cashing in, but like applying those points to like airlines and I just need like a whole lesson on credit card points and what credit card is the best. Also, I need points on like airline rewards. Yeah. Like I wanna be frequent flyer. Yes. Like I want to get points and be able to upgrade to first class. I just am in the absolute back sweating. The absolute back. Yeah, that's really, really tough for me to understand. But again, I do it sometimes, but I don't understand it. And I feel like I'm not getting my money's worth. Yeah. You have another er I have quite a few I can run through if you yeah. Go ahead and I'll kind of because mine I just had a hard time coming up with stuff. I can't think. Maybe I'm just don't understand a lot more. No, I just mean because I'm my brain. Football, obviously. 1000%. Don't know, don't even see the ball. I don't know what the point system is. I'm getting this feeling every time, like that it's that fake it till you make it, except like I barely make it. The powder puff game, I was a nervous wreck. Yeah, well, they pulled me out. Yeah, I only had a safety. I don't know what I was supposed to do. And so I was probably just standing there like I also did in soccer when I was younger. I just stood there. I don't know. I just don't understand football. I know that there's downs. I know that there's a touchdown, there's downs, but I don't know what the downs are. There's four of them. And I think like you tackle once you get tackled down, that's that's where the ball lets the yardage or something. Yeah, and so you I think the ultimate goal is getting it to the touchdown within four tries. I don't know if there's any kind of extensions of any rules or any of those. Extra innings. Yeah, I'm not sure about that, but I think it's like four I keep saying innings.
SPEAKER_01Yards?
SPEAKER_00Four What's the word that we were just saying? Yeah, downs. You just try to move the ball until you get to the touchdown line. Uh maybe, yeah. Oh yeah, I just don't know. And it stresses me out because I would love to know. What's going on, but I don't. The home buying process, I just be doing things. These are so good. These are all things that I was so sh like I don't know anything. There's things I've done and I just can relate to this so much. Microsoft XL. I knew it for a spell when we had like business statistics in college. And I could do some formulas, but all I know how to do is write stuff in the boxes and like make a table. I honestly I I wish I would have thought of these myself because these are s all things that I am just I struggle with on a daily basis. These are all struggles I have. SEO search engine optimization. I don't know how to optimize it. That's not something for us to do as a user, is it? No, but it's like you would use it for your business. Oh, okay, yeah. No clue. I think you put like keywords and stuff, but Oh, I do kind of do it on my ads. I like I kind of understand it, but I don't. Yeah. And when it's all said and done. It's like it's kind of like a hashtag. I suppose. And then my last one is being a digital nomad. Have you ever heard of that? In a movie. Digital nomad? I feel like in a movie I did. Is it like the center on the story? I don't know. I don't have anything to add on that. I don't really know what it is. I guess you just like work remotely. But that's it. Those are all really, really good. Thank you. Um thank you, thank you, thank you. Interest. Yeah. That's tough. I don't pretend to understand. I just actually don't know at all. Buying a car. A printer. You don't understand a printer? No, that one just me. Printers are understand. You plug in your computer and you print your document. That dang printer never works. Well, you already got a good printer. I got a good printer and my printer works remote. I can print stuff from my phone. Do you remember when I was upstairs for about 30 minutes trying to print this? Something wasn't right on your printer. Exactly. There's always on your end. Not on my printer's end. Don't put that on my printer. I have an incredible printer. It's a fantastic printer. This one's a really good one. TSA rules. They're never the same. I got some insight. We're coming back from New York or something. And this lady in front of me was asking about, or maybe it was me talking to the guy. I don't know. Must have had an out-of-body experience. Because how are you not? I was looking from up above. I was hovering over. But because sometimes they say you can't leave, take all your electronics out. Like take your laptop out, but you can keep like a candle or something small. And I never sometimes they tell you to take your camera out. And so sometimes I'll take it out and like, put it back. Like, bro, I just had to take it out at the other place. But one guy, sweet old man, he said if it has like a processor, er, is that the word? Something like that. Like a computer has a processor, so you have to take it out. Okay. Which I don't know. So why why wouldn't a phone have a processor? I don't know. Should I look it up real quick? That's okay. I don't really care. Yeah. But it is a valid question because yes, like I didn't have to take out my Kindle. That doesn't seem like it would have a processor, though. Okay. A phone? You don't have to take out your phone, but that seems like it would have a processor. I don't know, but like what's the difference? Because why do I have to put it in a separate bin? Yeah. Do I put my printer in the bin? If anyone has any tips for flying with a printer. It's like shoes on or off. Let me know. Get it straight. Belt on or off. Sweaters on or off. It varies. They have me trip and I they have me taken off my belt and like, put it on. Get you big going. I'm like, you don't know. I'm in the line naked. I don't know my mom.
unknownTell her to pick me up.
SPEAKER_00No, it's like they act like we aren't flying in and out of different airports. You think I'm flying into Tampa Airport and I'm gonna land in Tampa Airport? Like. Yeah, tell me the rules. Just be like nice. Okay. Yeah, and also be nice. The nicest airport I was in, the people were pretty decent, was that New York one. Yeah, I was gonna say I remember it. I suppose. That one New York one. That big New York one. Everyone flies into it. Have you ever flew into LaGuardia? LaGuardia? Me neither. The worst airport I've been to is O'Hare, Chicago, Illinois. Shout out. Shout out. It was a horrible airport, horrible experience. People running into me, pushing wheelchairs. I got into an alternative. Location, believe it or not. With that lady that clipped my sister. Luggage lost. Oh my ears, yeah. Crying. Almost missed my flight. That was the most heinous travel day I've I've ever experienced in my entire life. I wanted to evaporate. I did too. A lot. I was in, I do you remember the reel where it's like the lady on the plane talking about he's a lizard? Or that's the state of mind. That's where I was at. She probably had a real inway. On the way to Greece. Okay, that's where I'm getting it mixed up. Or yeah, I think it was two or from Greece. I was really It was too Greece. Um I took a dramamine. So I think it was a mix between the dramamine and Shrek 1, 2, 3, and 4. We booked a red-eye flight to Greece, and I took a dramamine so I could go to sleep, and I put on Shrek 1, 2, 3, and 4. Knocked them all out. And I was under the impression, because that video scared me, of that lady. This is not real. And people were saying that it was a lizard person or like something. And I caught like a weird glimpse of the person behind me, and I got really scared. In her week her sleep wake state. And I thought I thought the person behind me was a lizard person. I didn't think he was real. It sounds stupid, but like in my head, like I was deathly afraid of whoever was behind me. Because they weren't moving much. But no, does that happen? Like, I know exactly what you mean because in my like wake and sleep state, like I'll be convinced my alarm clock, like I don't have to turn it off because it is a cheeseburger. Like it it's like things that do not make sense at all, but they make total sense in my dream. And like it's so logical. So I know what you mean by thinking that there's someone and then once we got like landed and stuff, I took a look at them when we were getting home. They're fine. Turns out he was sleeping. No, and like that whole time where you're experiencing lizard people, I'm like crying because the amount of like just warfare, spiritual warfare going on in my stomach. I just like am not a good flyer and like I get like air bubbles, all sorts of stuff. Like I could sleep, but no, airplanes make your belly expand. And so whenever we got to JFK, I got some gas hex to like try to deflate my stomach. Turns out that's not even what it's for. Gas hex. This is actually to give you gas. No, but I was just like really, really struggling. I kept having to like well pee and also like my stomach just it hurt so bad, like just severe pains. I was crying, trying to watch the Princess Diaries to bring myself back, like mentally. And I'm like, if me and Thermophilus don't shut up right now, like I was just having a time and I had my sleeping mask on. I was crying. I bought this special pillow for the trip. That turtle stunk. Not literally, but it was the most horrible travel pillow ever. And it's like I got to Greece and I was a wreck. That first, this is getting so off topic, but that first day that we got to Greece was the longest day in history. Is we got there in the morning, but we also left I don't know, we were like awake for a very long time. Yeah. And then we had to stay awake, even though it was technically our nighttime. We had to stay awake because it was daytime in Greece. And then we finally got to our hotel, but we had to stay up until regular bedtime in Greece. At least seven, I think our rule was. And I was not doing okay. And then finally, Demi went to the bathroom because she was honest like, we have to stay up. Guys, stay up. Do not close your eyes, don't go to sleep. So when she took a shower as soon as she stepped in the shower. And then I did wake up at 3 a.m. with the full night's rest. So I had to warn traveling to get a second full night's rest. I remember FaceTiming mom and dad at 3 a.m. and it was light there. And I was still that just messed me up even further. Yeah, it was tricky trying to talk to them because you'd have to talk to them at like 12 a.m. and it's their like middle of the day or something. Yeah. Very, very weird. But anyways, fun time stuff. Gas pain. I guess it's probably a mixture of the gas X, Jamamine, Trek 1, 2, 3, 4. Trek ever after. You got me there. Anyways. All right. Well, thanks for listening to this episode. We like to just chat. Drop us a five-star review. We checked them today. You guys didn't listen to us. Is there anyone out there? No, no. Anyways, drop us a five-star review.
