Checking out the town on Memorial Day



So, after Oliver and Mikayla's party, I decided I wanted to go out and check out the Mission. Mikayla and Oliver have those pesky job things so I was all on my own. I meant to go to some place they told me about called the Elbo room, but it was dead, so I found a pretty cool lesbian bar around the corner, and hung out there instead. I've found Lesbian bars to be some pretty tricky places. You've just got to take it as a given that as a man, you probably won't be very well received. Like that one time at Hogs and Heffers when I almost got punched out by a huge young woman who was less than enthused that I used the ladies room. But it was an honest mistake and in my defense, the bathrooms in that joint are pretty poorly marked and the lighting is really dim.
Anyhow, here at this place, I met a couple of lovely girls, and once they found out I was from Brooklyn, and had even lived there before it had it's own clothing line, I was introduced all around and even bought some beers.
The girl in the photo was even a Packer girl (the high school my sister went too)! The guy in the Camo was trying to convince her he was a professional photographer and was posing her all over and on the pinball machine and everything. I wasn't quite convinced about that, his point and shoot camera raised some doubts in my mind, but whatever, who am I to judge? Besides, as the only other guy in the bar, I wasn't about to start calling him out.
