My new love!

I have to give my wonderful sister a big fat thank you for turning me onto this product. Skull Candy! I can't believe how awesome these ear buds are. Before I would be jammin on the Elliptical, doing my thing and then all the sudden POP goes my ear bud. Well if you have ever been on the Elliptical machine and you suddenly loose your ear bud you know what a mess this is. Your arms are swinging and your legs are pumping and if you let go you just might go flying into the next state! Major problem!!! Okay maybe not a major problem for those who are more coordinated than I but this silly problem was happening to me on a regular basis and then on the final day of my lovely old ear buds the one side came flying out of my ear and caught on the swinging arm and it never worked on that side again. Just great! I can't work out with no TV or no music. Then I have to listen to all the sweaty men and women on either side of me. Okay I know they are just like me and that I am doing the very same thing but I really don't like listening to other people working out, call me and anal I don't care but it just kinda grosses me out. Okay so anyway back to the Skull Candy. My sister told me about these awhile ago and said they were great. SHE IS NOT KIDDING. They are noise reduction ear buds and they have these little rubber ear pads. They have three different sizes and come in a bunch of different colors. So when my other ones broke I decided to break down and buy my sisters recommendation. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. So I am doing my thing the other day on the bicycle and I get off and take out the ear buds and I hadn't really realized just what they had done but when I take them off I realize just how noisy the gym really is. I was shocked at how much noise had really been eaten up. I am sitting there shocked and this cute little old lady asks me if I am ok so I tell her about the ear buds and she is so impressed and asks me all the details. Would you believe the next day I see her there and she has the same pair I do. I am telling you they are terrific. I even find myself kinda forgetting where I am and laughing out loud at some silly show and then having people giving me funny looks for laughing out loud. I don't care. Thanks Anita you are the greatest!

I got them from Best Buy for around $30. You don't have to get the crazy colors that I did either and not only that but if you don't like the ones from Best Buy you can get them online from http://www.skullcandy.com/shop/smokinbuds-p-10.html
I love them!
