In session tonight—

Me: (Since I’m traveling for the holiday) I don’t know what to do about the (dreaded monthly) Thu call with my mother.

Current T: Tell her that you are in the United States. And, Thanksgiving is a holiday in the United States. And so, you can’t talk to her.

(I don’t know in what universe that makes sense but...)

Next...

Me: So, I was looking at this Ignatian (Jesuit) practice...

Current T: You mean Ignacio?

Me: No, I meant Ignatian as in Ignatius?

(I’m not sure she got it — am pretty sure she knows I have no connections to Latin America...)

She did gush a fair bit over my little art-work.
