Welcome to the Couch! People of PC Psychotherapy (Part 2)

Carla-so sorry your having a bad day. Hugs to you.

I decided to start packing up my condo. I know this is jumping the gun-but I feel comfort in having it packed up and ready to leave if I need to.

Guayusa isn't tea, though, is it? You brew or infuse it like tea, but like rooibos or chamomile it isn't actually tea.

Which is not to say it can't be good. I'm just being picky.

Gah, I haven't had any tea today!

I was using tea in the larger sense - like any herbal type infusion being called tea. Plus it is with the teas and called tea in shops. Like calling any carbonated beverage Coke or tissue Kleenex or photocopy Xerox or online search Googling.

Go have some real tea. It sounds like you need caffeine.(I mean this nicely - caffeine can help).

LC - I did try a man therapist guy last week. Glad it works for you. I stopped it in the middle and left. I think I am correct about the therapists I will waste my time and money with must be middle aged to old women.

And now I'm sitting in the parking lot of Ikea, which doesn't open for another 20 minutes. Oops.

I like their lingonberry jam. I cannot put the furniture together at all.

One swallow does not a summer make.

African swallow or european? With or without a coconut?

If it weren't 10:00, I'd probably get some Swedish meatballs.

Hahahahaha!

My H and I have taught our 5-year-old the dialogue from that part of the movie.

What is your favorite color?!

This is true. I should. I'm just waiting for people outside my office door to go away.

At 10:00, meatballs are nice cold, as a sandwich topping. With beetroot salad.

Red! No - blue! Aaaaaaaaaaaah!

Thanks for making me laugh this morning, you guys! My friends and I mainly focus on the "It's just a flesh wound!" part of the movie. We ride horses and do endurance riding with them and one of us gets hurt pretty often.

I also used a line from that movie in therapy once. The session after telling him something particularly mortifying, my T asked if I had any anxiety about coming in. I asked if he's a Monty Python fan and then said my thoughts about therapy that day were limited to: "RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!" and then I made the coconut clacking together noise. He laughed.

We also discussed the movie Die Hard that day because I admitted that sometimes I stare at the ceiling tiles and wonder if there's a crawl space up there to use as an escape route.

and here I thought I was just being literary. the more you know, the more you don't know. what manner of man was he? not that it matters anymore!!! sigh! it's like herding cats in here sometimes thanks I needed that!

Maybe he wasn't the right male. You've tried lotsa females. I just wish for you a T that will help.

Thanks. There are too many other things to get past without adding male to my list of therapist hurdles.

Back to swallows - it made me think of Saturday Night Live and Jane Curtain doing the news with Miss Emily Litella (the character played by Gilda Radner who always got a word wrong ("What is all this I hear about Violins on TV?")(good lord - monty python and saturday night live all in the same few hours.)
(NOTE THIS IS A BIT CRUDE):


EMILY LITELLA
[about Tom Snyder] I love him! I love him! I love him! And where he goes I'll swallow, I'll swallow, I'll swallow! He'll always be my true love, my true love, my true love, from now until forever, forever, forever!

During choir rehearsal.

I must stop reading forums when he's rehearsing the tenors & basses.

That was ... tactful.

What have you swallowed? Is this a joke about tea?

LOL @ CantExplain, I think they are quoting Monty Python movies
