gloriously $free: bring food, drink, and a blanket or foldy chair.

Elaine and Spike were supposed to have a BBQ, but the unmerciful fates dictated that Spike have a final exam Tuesday moning, and Elaine have a server crash, so we’re not having the dang BBq at our house.

INSTEAD! We present
The Fantabulous Are-you-sick-of-lying-around-on-blankets-with-hot-women-yet (because-we-fucking-love-it)
LEATHERDYKE Last-Minute Picnic in the Park.

Friends welcome. (Yes, anybody you really like.)
Entertainment: what, food and conversation ain’t enough?

We’ll be there with sunblock on!
