We ate riboflavin tablets to release energy at the cellular level.  We took gingko extract for circulation, B6 for depression, and ascorbic acid for bones and teeth.  I never had any problems with my teeth but Betsey did.  We were having a lot of sex then and Betsey liked to fuck and watch television and have a cigarette going at the same time but after we stopped smoking everything seemed a little less meaningful.  At the Vallejo county fair we met some Californians for Christian Focus and attended a rock concert for Jesus.  Two of the Christians gave us woven friendship bracelets in bright purple and green and the gesture touched me because I had often seen young girls making these on Telegraph Avenue as they sat on relay mail boxes and both the young girls and the young Christians seemed so fresh and hopeful.  Later that week Betsey and I went to a meeting where a woman announced she was giving herself permission to wet the bed.  After that we cut back on our meetings and our sex drive improved.
