If my hair was curly I would love it. Or straight, that would work too. The texture is frizzy like brushing curly hair. Products help a little, but not true curls nor sleek. Just less frizz. Ah, well, it is what it is.

hi couch. My mom actually is considering seeing Kashi for a session. Hell must've frozen over and the polar ice caps are on fire.

I hope my T gets what he deserves for the holidays. He knows what I want to give him. . It's just hard to gift wrap it.

My screaming room is out back, on the back patio. It's silent but I have space to feel what I need to.

I scream into my pillow sometimes. I haven't felt the need to do that in awhile, thankfully, but it has always worked in the past.

I feel so, off... or something.... right now. I'm not quite sure how to describe it. Like part of me is off in another dimension or something. Went shopping earlier with h to pick up a couple of Christmas presents for each other. Maybe it was the crowds in the store. I don't know. Strange energy out there. I can't seem to shake it off to go to sleep. Like I don't want to take it to the dream time with me or something. And I want t. That doesn't help, either. I'm feeling so embarrassed by what I told her in my email last night still that I can't even imagine 'talking' to her in my head tonight which I sometimes do when I can't fall asleep. I'm too embarrassed to even pretend talking to her. I guess I'm in for a sleepless night, at least tomorrow is Friday, right? And hopefully we won't be too busy with Christmas being this weekend. I'm hoping the rush was today - because we were super busy. I'm going to go watch some mindless tv for awhile. May be back, maybe not.

I understand what you are describing. For me, it is overstimulation. I'm an introvert and too much going on, in the space I'm in, triggers me greatly.

When I feel overstimulated I look for my journal or a book that gives me comfort. If nothing else, I plug my earphones in and go away.

Hey art maybe you can imagine t sitting in a chair next to your bed just reading. This is one of my fantasies about all my t's that I'm happy to share with you. I imagine t is just watching over me or quietly reading while I try to fall asleep. Childlike I know. But I find a comforting thought.
Thanks for this!

Likely it is that - the store was super crowded of course. I tend to stay out of situations like that as much as possible. It was like all this energy coming from every which way bombarding me or something. I should have remembered to surround myself with reiki energy before we left, that usually helps. Thank you for your understanding.

That's a great idea!! I sorta already know how it would feel in a way, because when I do sand trays during a session, I'm kind of in my own little world sorta-kinda like when asleep and dreaming almost in a way, I tend to go really deep when I work in the sand - in fact t mentioned that I do that last night when I first started one and anyway she stands next to me quietly watching me as I create in the sand. So sorta similar in a way. I am going to go try that now. I think it will be helpful. Thank you.

I am watching The Thin Blue Line on youtube. Rowen Atkinson as a policeman. I think it is quite funny.

My T is so far off the mark he has to go back to his text book pull out some Freudian lingo to back up his latest diagnosis. Poor guy....

He's only fooling himself.

I love The Thin Blue Line. Especially the camp con stable and Ben Elton named the female Habib simply because Rowan has a speech impediment and it adds to the comic effect. Like Bob in Blackadder It's on a yet video some where. Ants the desk Sargent is his wife hilarious

I use that same image sometimes. (Except it's my T, not yours.) I had a neighbour who would sometimes babysit me when I was little; she'd do that, sit with me while I was going to sleep. I can just about remember it.

Hello everyone, I'll read back when I get home. Heading out for my last trial day for potential new job. I hope it was worth it. I spent $120 bucks (U.S Dollars) just to get thru the initial interview process. That's a lot of money for someone who needs employment. Time to go bring my A game and land me a job. I could use pocket riders. Even if you are not a big fan of children they also have 2 cats. So animals lovers and people who don't mind children-please hop in. I'm asking for support from anyone willing to give some. I'll Check in later when I get home.

I'm in, Jersey. I am not great with children but I can usually stand being around them, and I do love cats. And I like you. So I'll come, and bring a large bag of support (and some toffee.)

Well I finally got to sleep last night, thank you couchies for being here and helping with suggestions, it was kinda funny as soon as I started imagining t sitting there reading as I tried to fall asleep, the wall came back down and I started 'talking' to her in my head and next thing I know the alarm was going off and here I am again and it's almost time to leave for work!

eta: ha and before I fell asleep as I was talking to her in my head the last thing I remember thinking was my next session is going to be sooooooooo uncomfortable...
