One good thing about living in the city – besides getting locked out of a venue before Big Dog goes to bed and having stomach sex on the overcrowded commute – is that public/religious holidays are a loose term. A lot of the venues stay open right through, meaning you and Stacey can GO AND GET FUCKED UP. Or like, grab a coffee, as you please.
