It's basically stream of consciousness sparked by whatever small thing catches her interest. It's amazing.
Your forbearance is amazing! (...assuming you haven't screamed anywhere but here...)
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

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.

I am talking and I can't shut up. This is how I know I exist.
I do not see your pained expression nor how you keep sidling away from me. I know I am fascinating and you enjoy hearing from me even though you are sitting there turning the pages of your book.
..... I've spent some time with people who blow a lot of hot air, can you tell?
