Couch 136: Transference Welcome!

Thank you! I was thinking the same thing but forgot the name of said already existing church! Remembered the gambling part, of course.

But but... We're in 2017, you can have more than one church!

Theres gotta be a Louie Armstrong / Ella Fitzgerald song that covers this. Off the top of my head, id say, potayto, potahto!

You mean "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off"?

I am pretty sure SD's not gonna wear pyajahmas for you.

ETA:
Ooh, new lyrics in honor of una and SD!


You speak Yiddish, and I speak Mandarin,
You hate therapy, and I praise it so
You won't take hugs, and I'm a humpy puppy
Let's call the whole thing off
Let's call the whole thing off

See, the thing is - I am not trying to interfere with the huggy freaky deaks hugging in and of itself. Hug away you huggy humpy puppies. I would never attempt to stop you and atat in your huggy humpy puppy activities. I draw the line at having me clobbed on the head with them. Do them over there and we are fine. Do them in my personal space and we are not.

I am more a ship passing in the night kind of puppy. Not the humpy kind.
We never had anything on that could be called off.

And my jammies are no one's business at all.

I only play a happy humpy puppy on PC. I've probably given more hugs on here than I have in my nearly forty years on earth.

In real life, it's more like I walk around giving any potential huggers the evil eye.

That sums things up quite well for me, too.

You are a gifted lyricist, I tell you!!!

In real life, I am a happy humpy puppy type when I'm around other happy humpy puppy types, but I do not try to hug where anti-hug vibes are in play!

I should have used the line "You call them ughs, and I call them hugs."

ooh they're even anagrams!! fancy!!

I painted my nails instead of hurting myself! Go me! Nurture that soul-frog!

...and now I have the girliest nails ever.

I like the sparkly!

I like the nails.

Very nice.

Thanks lovelies I should do it more often!

I should paint my nails too.

Yes, do! It'll be like a couch sleepover

Yeah, all we need now is popcorn and a movie.

And frozen underg's!

What are undergs?

Undergarments but they have Been Unalised are now undergotchies apologises to the person who does not like this term

Nice nails, lucozader! I need to do my toes before I get out my sandals.

I've recently switched to twice a week therapy (versus once a week). I feel a little strange about that, T had brought it up a while ago and then brought it up again, and life circumstances are such that I can do it and maybe I should. Can't help but worry it's too much introspection or I'll get overly attached. But I'll see how it goes, anyway.

Is Jersey around?

I'm pretty sure No. 2 just pulled the same trick on me that your XT did to you. I called her a week ago to ask for a termination session for closure, left a voicemail, didn't hear back. Today I came home to a notice of a certified letter from her waiting at the local PO. It can only be a termination letter. More than six months afterwards?!

I swear this must be a page in the therapist handbook: when a client you know you've wronged asks for closure, either ignore them or send them a termination letter, thus reopening the wounds you caused.

Oh well, she just guaranteed herself a complaint.
