A snippet, paraphrased as usual for brevity...

Me: I was just sitting there with my coffee minding my own business when you popped into my head.
T: I hate it when that happens.
Me: I told you I just want to feel normal again.
T: What did I say?
Me: You said "Nothing is normal right now." Which I already know.
T: Well, what is normal, really?
Me: Gah. Yeah, you said that too. I really just want you to tell me everything will be all right.
T: Everything will be all right.

(Only she used more words and said it not in a trite head-patting way, but in a real way that still let everything be not all right for now.)
