Couch 127: The Wayward Couch

As I have no real notion of who that is (one of the gooier popular therapist writers?), except SD likes her voice...doubtful.

According to the googleverse, the French meaning of Rene is reborn.

If your psyche speaks French, then I would consider this to be a sign that some part of you is ready for change.

It must be some unwritten feline rule that hairballs are only to be thrown up in the middle of the night (and often in a place they will be stepped in). Ugh.

Or Descartes?

The psych might have left out a word or phrase by mistake.

There are a lot of mistakes in their notes, on average. Many cut and paste notes from other clients with intent to revise, but miss a lot or misstate things. Or they are in a hurry to leave for the day and do it half-assed. In other words, they are often sloppy.

I've seen "odd" written only in context, such as oddly dressed, odd mannerisms, odd in appearance etc. But odd isn't a good descriptive word for that sort of thing. It's better to use more descriptive words that describe what the oddness is. Like if someone was 'odd" in dress, it's more descriptive to write mismatched, wrinkled clothes, etc.

I was actually thinking Rene Russo.

Yes I have asked and yes I have gotten them. And like TR, it has often happened that the person behind me didn't show up or was late when I needed extra time.

Your type?

This is from 30 years ago he would have dictated it. He said I was casually dressed.

I just found out how it feels to be truly happy for another person!! One of my friends at work got a new job in another area of the company making more $ and i find myself so happy for her, there's not even any room for jealousy on my part. I am just purely happy for her. She deserves it so much. I like this feeling a lot. A pure feeling with nothing twisted up in it. Her news has literally made my day like a cool breeze blowing the weird whatever it is out of my head thats had me down recently. I don't know if i've made any sense or not.

What a great feeling!

Ugh, I just got in a fight with H because I thought he was watching D, and she was climbing someplace where she shouldn't have. I apologized from not watching her, and said I thought he was. And he got angry at me for apologizing, and he sounded so mad that it kind of freaked me out, and I said that, which of course irritated me more. And then D seemed upset that we were fighting.

This was after having a generally good few days (including the holidays in there), a laid-back marriage counseling session yesterday, some time together last night that ended in physical intimacy, and I thought a good early dinner out with D tonight.

So clearly there's still lots of issues going on here...

I've been away for a week on a cruise with my mom. It was fun but I'm glad to be home.

Welcome back!

Debbie Reynolds, too.

I wanna hear all about it! Im thinking about going on one, like maybe the weight watchers cruise in may. Which sounds counter-intuitive, i know. But im thinking PC is never gonna have one.

The woman was even more inane this week about my dead pet than she was last week. I don't know how she does it -sometimes I am in awe of her ability to spew out the constant inanities with such a straight face. I think the most insipid this week was "you really like your pets"
I was all like - god just shut up.

2016 just won't quit, will it? It has to take even the Unsinkable Molly Brown.

She probably believes the inanities. That helps to spout them.

And why was she allowed to talk today?

I think D Reynolds was the picture in the dictionary next to narcissistic mother. I think it was more she had to upstage her daughter even in death.

What a difficult time for that family.

Grief made me sloppy in holding the line.

Is it possible to upstage Princess Leia? Maybe that was the problem?

Eta: come to think of it, that would fit right into Postcards from the Edge.

I heard today that somebody started a go fund me page or whatever it's called to "Save Betty White from 2016" and the proceeds being donated to a theater group I think it was. Hollywood has had a rough year.

I think mine was sleep-talking yesterday. The sunlight reflects off his glasses and i cant really tell if hes asleep or awake.
