And put it in a ziplock bag...

Brandon and I have had Lit songs (four of them, including "Ziplock," to be more specific) stuck in our head all weekend since we learned that the annual SchwabFest, a festival held on - you guessed it - Camp Schwab, was bringing in the band Lit.  When Brandon mentioned this to me, I immediately sang back to him, "It's no surprise to me, I am my own worst enemy."  Talk about good recall!  We haven't heard any of their music since the 90s!  Didn't realize they were still touring and putting out new albums.  Oops.  We figured we'd better make up for our lack of Lit by driving a little over an hour up north to the marine base.
