Good afternoon, everybody,

Esperanza here took up residence at the door of a Venice beach apartment, and I was trying to convince my friend to let her stay. What can you tell me about her? Thank you!

Thanks! I guess that should have been obvious by her web. My friend has been convinced of her beauty and value, and they are now cohabiting happily.
