Couch 143: The Mr. Rogers Love Transformation

At least there weren't any minions though, right? Please tell me there weren't any minions...

Absolutely!

But but... Minions!

I sense - as I think I have before - a career niche!

As for twins, but too many to be twins...the twinny ones are all obviously clones of the Ur-therapist, who as far as I can tell is a slim little woman with wide eyes and an incredible amount of naivete (or who thinks clients like naivete).

ATAT -- Current T is the Ur-therapist

LZ -- sounds like I missed a minions meme?

ETA: So, ATAT -- this one also signed off a couple of her emails as Dr. (Last name initial). Very cute....not. I addressed her resolutely by first name in all emails (and sign off the same way myself although I did for a second, consider signing off with my complete Dr. Last Name). The latest email with the living-est articles has her signing off with First Name / Dr. Last name initial. Now, that I think about it, that level of social awkwardness should be enough to strike her off the list (even before we get entangled in silver linings).

Can I come? Will there be kittens?

Not possible - my information is that the Ur-therapist (may she Rest In Peace ) has been mummified and has a subterranean tomb deep beneath the Gobi Desert. Her clones are required to make regular pilgrimages there - that is where a therapist is going whenever they are gone for more than two weeks.

(Sorry - too much world myth lecture prep.)


Yeesh.

This is like DBC - Dr. First name like she's Dr. Phil. She claimed no one actually calls her that - yet every online review of her calls her that and it's how Hawaiian Shirt referred to her when scheduling clients.

CW only signed her first name - as opposed to letting her .sig file speak for her - when I sent her my letter telling her how she screwed up.

Many, many kittens.

Ah, I didn't think it was possible to have missed them! You are lucky.

That's how excited I am about the bloody kittens!

But kittens are gonna eat my birdies!

Naw everyone is friends!

Plus we've got flamingos right, and then my dress has the snails n turtles

Come snail away, come snail away
Come snail away with meeeee

There is literally a job for *anything* isn't there?

hahaha that song

i wish my job was to lie in bed and cry and chain smoke and post on a mental health forum all day. id be making BANK

Can we add some guinea pigs to the bed-animal mix? And maybe some bunnies?

I really need a pet...

Oh, wow. Now I am definitely going to retreat to a corner with a sleeping bag. Those things just poop anywhere.

Guinea pigs? One that I had always went back in his cage to poop. The other two...less so. Bunnies...the one I had as a kid was litter-trained, but he'd sometimes poop outside the litterbox if he was excited.

So...perhaps we can just keep them in cages next to the bed?

I'm feeling very alone and empty. I'm sitting here outside just staring at stuff. Lost in my own world

The view from my hole

Ohhhhhhhhhhh me too, me too

Except I only chain smoke at bad recording sessions. Getting hired to record 28 hours of elevator music just does weird things to you

OMG is that the scene from today's Handmaiden's Tale? Today's episode was ****ED UP.

Yes!!! No Spoilers!!!!

Agreed...

I had one that never went outside its cage.
