I mean not that killing is a good plan ever, but if it was going to happen, drive to the non-death penalty state rather than the one with it.
From my death penalty defense counsel stand point.
The death penalty is cruel, unusual punishment, IMO.

I have certainly raised that argument - so far to little avail.
Thanks for this!

So what is it about T's seeming to be so pleased when we get angry? I wasn't mad at T, but at others in my life. He was so freaking happy that I was angry, said it was about time, read out my angry email and even added harsher language than what I had used to describe them....Why does he act like me getting b****y and angry is a good thing?

When he was little, my son asked me if I had ever been to jail. I was like, "sure. Lots of times." My son was all . Turned out we were talking about two different kinds of 'been to jail.' LOL.

I am.. although, I was there today and will be again Thursday and Friday! I have been helping to clean out the Kindergarten classroom and grading Regents test. Friday night is HS graduation, so I will help out with that. After this week, I will only go in when I need to make copies or work in my room!

Hi Healed. I was once arrested for larceny of a tooth pick dispenser. It was in my coat pocket, but I didn't steal it.

Seriously, long story. My dad hired a senile attorney and I was just glad it was over. was hanging with the "bad crowd." We left my home town on the way back to college, he bought one twelve pack and then another, and then we were in the lock-up. They knew his name. I never had a chance. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I did part of my ballet exercise dvd this morning. Ballet is a lot harder than it was 30 years ago, how did that happen?! But I noticed more flexibility already just taking my shower and walking to the bus.

I think its a cognitive deficit I have but again i have visions of Hankster walking to the bus carrying a shower. And being very flexible about it too.

You can argue it's cruel, but it's hardly unusual.

Some people have what T's regard as an "anger deficit". They like to see a full range of emotions in every patient.

S**t. Earlier today i accidently dialled my T's number (he has the same first name as a friend) I thought I hung up quick enough, obviously i didn't as the Acute team just rang me to see if I'm ok as my T thought i was trying to contact him in crisis. I almost sent a text saying "wrong number' then remembered the new boundaries of no texting.
At least i know he cares, right?
