My t is not a blank slate at all. He has pictures of his kids and grandkids (and dog) on the shelves in his office. The other photos are landscapes he took on one of his many camping trips a few years ago. He's divorced and his first wife's name is Chris, just like mine. He talks about her from time to time. He lives with his current girlfriend. He's had trouble with his son and has given me some detail about that. His father passed last year. Oh, and he's adhd and takes meds for it.

I like it that way. All of my t's have been pretty open books now that I think about it.
