Dance, Drink and Do Good at Physical Action Tonight

It’s freezing. There are signs/sales/stories reminding you what presents you should be buying for people that you can’t afford in your grill constantly, and you are probably busier than ever trying to get enough work done to take time off for the holidays. You know what you need to combat this
