I'm essential! Just right for any occasion!



(Dang it--I gotta go get Erin, then pack her stuff and cook dinner for the crew heading down to the beach house. We furloughed a bunch of maintenance guys and are doing any repairs we can ourselves. I'm staying here this weekend, but I hate to miss an impromptu MM Parade!!!)
