It doesn't mean running riot, lying, cheating, stealing, & philandering (etc.) without compunction. It does mean relaxing, enjoying the moment, stringing enjoyable moments together when you can, "chilling." Taking a moral holiday means momentarily lightening up and taking it easy, not carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders, not being hopelessly depressed by depressing realities.
"The universe is a system of which the individual members may relax their anxieties occasionally, in which the don’t-care mood is also right for men, and moral holidays in order... I fully believe in the legitimacy of taking moral holidays." William James

noun. The amount of "karma" you have saved up in your life. Generally obtained by doing good deeds such as saving a life, giving to a charity, or helping an old person cross the street. Lost by performing acts of selfishness and immorality such as illegal activities, "screwing someone over", infidelity, etc.
Technically speaking, if one obtains a large amount of moral dollars, they can spend these moral dollars with less concern as they are "doing more good than bad." Obviously a flawed philosophy with little ethical sense but used to rationalize vices.
