she's STILL TALKING.
Does she have a subject or is it just stream of consciousness?
It's basically stream of consciousness sparked by whatever small thing catches her interest. It's amazing.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

Your forbearance is amazing! (...assuming you haven't screamed anywhere but here...)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Can I come to your home, lie on your couch, and have a meltdown for 45 minutes?
ABSOLUTELY!
(I have this half-baked dream of becoming a therapist for a retirement job, but will probably never actually do the extra schooling necessary.)

I wonder if you're allowed to advertise yourself as just a listening ear with the clear stipulation that you are not a trained therapist. With all the other services people get paid for, you'd think that would be possible.

I think you can do that if you call yourself a life coach.

Jesse I think that's what a lot of life coaches are. But then, I alsoroll my eyes at a lot of like, 23 year olds who are "life coaches". Because really.

I want that too. Maybe only 20 minutes? Ugh. Had a date, she canceled, tone is hard on text, we both overreacted and now I'm thinking there will be no more dates which is probably for the best but ugh.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

On Wednesdays, I have two consecutive sessions. So, yesterday, I had a 90 minute meltdown. I was soft-peddling.

Oh yeah -- a woman I used to work with quit to be a life coach, and maybe she was 27? I don't think she had enough life to coach anyone else!
Seriously, anyone wants to lie on my couch and talk to me, I will charge half what you're paying now!

Because books.
I would love that, to know that someone I knew and liked and trusted was listening, and could give advice. It's so hard to find a therapist I feel like I can talk to.
