December 28 - Kalisan Dusty Rose

And it's laughter that I feel when I think of you
It's one more dusty rose about to turn
I'll see you when I reach New Mexico
If I'm in the mood to crash and burn

~ Pat Travers Band - Crash and Burn (1980)

I'm not sure what I was thinking of when purchasing "muted pink" as a color.  Was I going to build a giant earthworm?  Was it on sale?   Was it new?  Was it an impulse buy for the free shipping?

The balloon texture is actually fairly nice with one notable exception.  I know I've used a lot of highly technical terms when talking about about these balloons but I need to add another one to the list.  Snap-back?

The texture of these balloons was fine - but when it came to tearing them, it was just shy of dangerous.  Not only was I getting painful snapbacks, but little bits of debris were flying off consistently enough that I was turning my face away when I did it.

Overall impression of Kalisan Dusty Rose - I will be avoiding getting more for a number of reasons.
