I wonder if a part of you is scared of losing him as he becomes more well known and has more external commitments? Have you talked to him about it?
Yes I don't want to lose him...
He is well known -> He has a lot of clients -> He likes them -> He doesn't like me anymore

No, bcs I have a lot of more important topics to discuss.

My T is on the committee board of the my nation's psychologist society. She gives talks regularly at her hospital, and for the society. She also has a lot of clients...

She took that well. And then she suggested I take dance lessons, I told her I was taking ballet classes soon, she said if there was a recital she would come to it.

Ugh. No.
Oh good lord what is wrong with those people? A Fair shot? Madness I say. And the suggestion of appearing outside of the office - even madder.

I just understood that hugs should be... "mutual", but I'm sure T doesn't care about my hugs. So he just does a favor. Oh f***.

ETA: It's stupid but I'm almost crying because of that right now

I'm willing to bet, maybe even guarantee, that he does care

Autumn creeping in there nicely....beautiful photo. I'm presuming someone's already written a song or two about that place?

I feel like writing a piece on the abysmal state of coffee milkshakes in the country.

I've sampled a fair number of them -- fast food chains, diners, restaurants, gas-station-y type places, different states etc -- and I'm yet to find a single one that can't be renamed to sugar-sugar-sugar-and-oh-here's-some-coffee-milkshake.

Maybe along with the therapist voodoo dolls, we can also sell coffee milkshakes? It's like 'Here, let me soothe you in many different ways possible'?

Then again, current T had the most abysmal response when I told her I inhaled a whole pint of Ben & Jerry's Brownie Batter recently -- she tried very very hard to attempt to make sense of it by asking "So, the cream calmed you down?". Like really? Who says anything about calming cream when talking about B&J's? Sigh. The woman keeps giving me reasons to call it quits.

P.S. I'm open to other flavors as well but I must say that vanilla, chocolate (any type of chocolate) and strawberry are nowhere nearly as mangled as the coffee ones are.

Has current t never eaten ice cream?

And, if you had a public coffee milkshake making demonstration, would she come to it? Cause Info totally would.

Oh my gawd, that was exactly what I thought as well? She went on about the cream something something while I just stared at her.

See that's why I wanted to combine it with our voodoo doll business -- we would have not just Info but many of your other therapists too?

Current T will sadly not be there. She may though be useful in giving me perfectly useless information -- it seems the tennis club close to where I'm moving to has something called paddle tennis (I don't play tennis, paddle or otherwise -- she does). She enlightened me that it's apparently a Northeast invention and so not usually found in these parts.

ETA: Does a heavily hirsute hipster Jake Gyllenhall look-alike also show up on everyone else's PC ad banner asking "Are you depressed?". Just wondering how much effort is going into ad customization these days.

I thought paddle tennis was ping pong.

I have therapy today. I'm not sure I have anything to talk about. Maybe she'll do a sand tray with me, I still want to do that.

Art -- I thought it was ping pong too.

I usually tell current T when I'm in such a mood that I have nothing to talk about. She picks up from there but sometimes when I say it because I'm super pissed with her, she doesn't take the bait and turns it back to an endless "So, what do you want to talk about then?" kinda therapisty-thing.
