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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I have soup in a bread bowl for lunch. It's working out pretty well for me, because it's a bowl, but it's also *bread*.

How I love the bread bowl! So full of yummy soup. And if I'm still hungry when I finish the soup, the bowl is there for the eating.

The vending machine downstairs keeps spitting my quarters back at me, which means I just got a free Coke.

It's not a free lunch, but it'll do.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Aw, the vending machine got you a going-away present.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Is it the Butch and Ron slashtastic Coke machine? Because that could explain a LOT.

Always Anti-fascist!

I was just thinking that, Tep. Maybe Butch and Ron will invite her to the commitment ceremony.

Yeah! It's been giving me Cokes for a quarter the last few weeks. It loves me.

My new nickname at work seems to be "short-timer."

Is it the Butch and Ron slashtastic Coke machine?

Alas, I left the Butch and Ron Coke machine behind years ago. I miss them. I wonder how those boys are doing now. Are they still gazing at each other lovingly? Did they run away together? Did they have a passionate affair and an even more passionate break up?

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

Now she's talking with her mouth full.

I should become inured to these things, but I just can't.

I did not pass out in my branch meeting. I'll count this as a win.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yay Sarameg!

I did get a free lunch today, but a) it's almost an exact duplicate of what I had been planning on having for dinner, and b) mine would have been a lot better, or at least a hella lot less salty.
