Go read this right this second. You will fall in love.
A sample: "Rick and Tiger enjoyed sneaking me into the Gentleman's club. Today, "Gentleman's Club" means strip club, but there it was an official bar/clubhouse that does not allow women to join or enter. The result of this was that just about every woman in town, myself included, had a bootleg key. At any given time there were more women in the place than men.
. . . The club was where I met Vicki. I knew about Vicki, everybody did. Vicki wasn't Old Money or New Money, Vicki was No Money. She had been a hot topic since a few years back when she'd come back from visiting her mother and found that her husband had thrown all her clothes out on the front lawn and changed the locks. Rumor had it that she had been cheating on him, a rumor Vicki would never confirm or deny. In fact, everybody mentioned the divorce but Vicki herself. After the divorce, her husband left town. Vicki got a job as a bartender and found an apartment, and moved on. Something had turned over in Vicki after the divorce, and she began living her life in a manner that horrified all the other women in town - she behaved as if she didn't give a good Goddamn what anybody else thought of her. This confirmed the opinion of town, and from then on out Vicki was the Town Tramp.
