Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You need a day off. Maybe a hyperbaric chamber?

I'm bored fucking stiff. I can't read or nap. I'd have nothing to do on a day off.

There's one of these on Catalina Island. FYI.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I meant more a day off from yourself.

I need a day off from my fucking skull.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have to go to bed now (late again). Feel free to yell at Perkins in my absence.

THAT's what I meant.

Seriously.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I could come over and show you the various dances I learned in the 80s, ita. I may still be able to spin on my back.

You may have to call for an ambulance, but at least it won't be for you.

Isolation tank? Spending a couple of hours floating in a small, dark space?

If it'll help, I can wave a small, fanged bunny at you long-distance, and you can growl at him. It always makes me feel better ...

stares in awe at Allyson

I still do the only dance I learned in the 80s. Swoop swoop, handwave-y handwave-y. It works for just about everything I would ever feel like dancing to.

I have no reason to think it would make the pain or nausea go away, sadly.

As fun as Allyson breakdancing might be, I don't think that'd work either.
