OK, need to share this one funny thing from T today. He clearly was having back issues and had this lumbar support thing and pillow that he was playing around with for part of it and shifting to different positions. (I did ask about the back issues, and he confirmed.) Then at one point it seemed he'd shifted so he was sitting on the pillow. For reference, he's pretty short, like 5'6". Me: "Are you sitting on the pillow? You seem taller. Or did you suddenly grow 2 inches?" T: "I wish! It doesn't work like that. I'm actually wearing lifts--butt lifts." Which made me laugh. And was a nice moment of levity in a fairly intense session about D.
