SBG Office @ 4:21 a.m.
Jesse Thomas I tried to sleep in the little room, a closet, really, that the Rainbow Society AND the BDSU shares, way in the back of the SBG offices. There's a swinging door leading to a tiny hallway that ends in a 5-step staircase that leads to.... a wall. Nice office space the SBG has, huh?
