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

I don't know what you meant, but I was speaking from my own experience when I said BOOOOORINGGGGG!!!! but lately even T is less boring. I used to be, shut up and let ME talk! but not so much anymore. am I mellowing??

Like a fine aged wine!

Hi Fellow loungers. What is everyone up to today? I'm just trying to breathe. Contacted T today and she said I can call her tomorrow between 12 and 1 to talk on the phone. Hubby put a call into the business agent to get an update on what is going on with the date for the second hearing-but really at the end of the day- the union could only do what they can to push for a date and if the company wants to be ***** about it and drag their heels then all anyone can do is wait. In the meantime he only sent out 2 resumes!!! I'm glad I get to talk on the phone to T tomorrow but there is this whole other part of me that feels so pathetic for needing T. You might think my tool box would have enough in it to get thru a crisis on my own without her- after having weekly sessions for 2 years straight.

sits here growling at your hubby to be sure he doesnt sit on the couch with us

Thank You Granite-I literally went over to our sofa earlier and told him to get up and go do something cause I can't stand looking at him sit there anymore. I handed him Clorox bleach bathroom cleaner and a scrub brush-and told him to go clean his bathroom.

lol thats awsome

today is my hubby's B-day.i bet he thinks i forgot i got him this helicopter he wanted and in going out to get him a small single sized little cake because i cant have any . it will be fun for him to see i didn't .i have had his present for weeks it was so hard not to give it to him.i had to order it in the mail and everything so he will know i didn't just run out and get it lol. i may even have to consent yo a little b-day nookie

Have fun Granite.

I've been craving beetroot salad with cold meatballs ever since I wrote that. How messed up is that, creating your own cravings? It's like thinking up an earworm on purpose.

*thinks*

Argh!!

earworm? eww!

Earworm ... why is it my mind latched on to that and not the meatballs!

Earthworms are great for fishing and I love fishing.

About men, I am just now learning to trust them .... This male T , I think is going to help me realize that they have feelings and should be considered. That's why I like the boards, sometimes I don't know who's a boy and who's a girl. tehe

I don't think lingonberry jam has any worms.
But now I am thinking about earwigs.

And it is good when you are happy with the therapist you have chosen regardless of said therapist's gender. If their gender works for you (and them)- then all is well.

Or a runny cheese.

Now I want to refer to the cheese shop skit from Monty Python.

I was just wondering if anyone else felt that way... People were posting on how men talk a lot etc.... Sorry if I mention T's a guy too much.

No, I was trying to not appear like a man basher.

A little fermented curd will do the trick.

Oops....

that's okay, neither do we! (know for ourselves sometimes, I mean). some mean boys were following me around town this morning, then they even went to the diner where I had breakfast and were talking loud about their girlfriends (it was the back dining room, no one else was there). but before that they were like stopping on the street and waiting for me to pass, then would continue walking behind me. I was wearing a ladies sweater but maybe they thought I was a guy. idk. I just don't need to get jumped. I gotta find my whistle. and brass knuckles.

I'm sorry that happened to you today, I sometimes get stares if I'm in boy mode, ie weekend. But I never feel threatened. I got your back!

Thanks! (i got no buttons!)

I think I know what you mean. I have a male T as well.

Hankster, a friend of mine found a thrift store gem for me that might help you--it was an illustrated self-defense manual for women from the 70s called Looking Forward To Being Attacked all about how fun it can be with a little know-how and the right attitude.

A small quote to illustrate the tone:
There are five main vulnerable areas of the male body (four for the female body). Each one is a joy in itself. These vulnerable areas can be poked, squeezed, clapped, kicked, scratched, punctured, slashed, stomped, slapped, lascerated [sic], spindled, folded, mutilated. To do all of these for one attack would be terribly bad taste, of course.

It looks like you can pick it up used at amazon amazingly.

Oh that's priceless. Looks like an informative AND entertaining read!
