A holiday that's probably not pre-marked in your smart phone device, but that probably should be, is on October 4th—National Vodka Day! That's right: we're just one week away. There are more than a few ways to celebrate this deeply important holiday, like, reading Chelsea Handler's "Are You There Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea," donating bottle of vodka to your local homeless shelter (or drag queen, gurl….), or just hanging out with your friends and drinking the stuff till your face feels numb (and not driving, repeat, not driving after). Or, our suggestion, participating in the contest to crown the newest city in the Absolut Cities series of vodkas. If you're over 21, then you can make a suggestion by clicking here. To spark your creative juices, we've a few suggestions….
