For 5 days anyway. She went on a little vacation with some old college friends to North Carolina. Gives me a chance to play with the new TT. My only responsiblilties are to take care of the dogs and myself. What are the odds?

    They will eat better anyway. I'm in the middle of a serious diet. I've lost 25lbs with 35 to go. My usual bachelor diet of steak and pizza won't be happening.
