Thanks for the side-hug, T. Even if it was a little awkward when you got distracted by your umbrella falling behind your door. I'm glad you brought up the connection thing today. I'm relieved, but this talk about getting in touch with my anger at my mom is scaring the **** out of me... But, I'm glad I'm feeling safe and secure with you again. I've seen quite a few Ts over the past 16 years, and none ever connected with me the way you do. Sometimes, you get to see the part of me that is so vulnerable and frightened and self-loathing, but you still accept me. I love you for that. See you Thursday.
