I'd seen the word profiteroles before but didn't know what they were. just googled, looks like a creme puff? which is pretty similar to this donut. the creme isn't as fluffy though and it's all inside the donut.

good point att. LT, don't listen to me. this is why I rarely give my thoughts on stuff, because I always end up being wrong.

Somebody on facebook quoted some rather salacious lines from Penzance and i was like, say its not so!
As always, i appreciate the reference to the music man. I have a little cousin who is running away with all the leads in her middle school plays. She was Nemo! |

No one said you were wrong. I think it’s a good idea. I just think based on what I know of Dr. T, he won’t like it if he isn’t asked first.

And yes, it seems he's thinking of it literally, like "object to put in the office." I'm hoping that in talking to R, I can get a better understanding of what it's about for me that I can then relay to Dr. T. Not that it will necessarily change how he feels about it. Like, maybe he'd still say, "I get to decide what's in my new office." But if he could at least understand and maybe, possibly empathize, that would help. And if it seemed like he understood, then he said, "Would you like to take it back?" it would feel different, better. |

I know you later pulled this back, but I do think it's a good suggestion. I think I'd want to talk to him about it first. Which I think is what others were suggesting, like not just to do it in front of him, in case he had a negative/weird reaction. |

But you do have agency - ask for it back.

So I’m feeling stupidly troubled about something. I still see Visa about once a month, last time was 10 days ago,. She warned me she might be on my campus a couple times in the next few weeks (her kids go here), and if we passed each other, I could deal with it as I wished—ignore her, wave, etc.
This past Friday an encampment began on my campus. There were of course chants of multiple anti-Semitic slogans. I accidentally walked into it, not knowing it was there, and once I managed to extract myself, I texted my Jewish colleagues and friends on campus to warn them in case they didn’t want to deal with that. Visa’s Jewish. And I remembered she might be on campus. So, I texted her too. She was indeed on campus that day, and she sent two thank-you texts back. I feel strange about the whole thing. Clearly it was fine to warn her, but I also feel like it shifted our relationship, and I don’t like that. |

This sounds complicated, and I'm sorry you're dealing with it. I agree that it was fine to warn her. I can see where you feel it shifted your relationship. But at the same time, would you have warned anyone you knew that was Jewish, like a colleague, acquaintance, etc.? If so, maybe you could try to think of it that way, that you'd have warned anyone you had some sort of relationship with who could have potentially been a target of the demonstration? So, not about her being your therapist, just someone you knew walking into that? |

You acted out of concern for her well-being, but it's also understandable that you might feel discomfort . Could you bring up how you feel in your upcoming session?
