Warm my heart, beat my body in to Mashed Potatoes

This is a really lovely experience. You have the distinct privilege to support an organization giving reliable, important job opportunities to vision-impaired young people, most of whom go on to earn a considerably good wage from their training and subsequent employment through this organization. The fun and the connection made was real.

And to the next best part: the massage after the training. Woah. Unreal. My masseuse was strong, determined, and calm, and put me in to a trance for easily the best massage of my entire life. I fell asleep and through a time portal during this massage in which I felt like I was going through a very gentle but firm car wash/mashed potato mixer/fresh spaghetti press. You could have bent me into a pretzel or flown me like a kite I was so relaxed after that massage.
