Last Saturday, I was fortunate enough to have been able to go to witness the launch of the Nestle Fitness Show Off Your Shape Promo. Why fortunate?

Damn anniversary . Why do you pop up your ugly head like this? Why can't you just nestle yourself back into the past and leave me be? WTF with the tears over something that's had plenty of tears already -- rivers and lakes and oceans of them? I don't want you to have any more space in my brain.

We are in Putre in Northern Chile and we are making a commercial.
