We did an odd mix of writing, drawing, and storytelling. As an academic, it was hard to keep from wondering where the heck T was going with this. In stats, we would call this a multitrait, multimethod matrix, and I would be salivating to explore the data. But as the neurotic one, trying her hardest not to blow chunks, it was really, really therapeutic. It enabled me to tell my story without it becoming too much. I felt the fist of terror lessen its grip enough that I could keep breathing. And for me, that's huge.
