Oh you make me laugh :)
When my T reads my write ups, he has these little mannerisms that give him away. I think a loud breath means he's releasing tension or is unhappy about what I've written. A toe point (he sits cross legged) I think means he's considering something and a full on foot waggle means I've hit a nerve with him.
I asked mine on Friday about what would happen if he kicked the bucket and I can tell you that there was *a lot* of foot waggling involved. He most certainly does not like to consider his own demise or retirement or anything like that.
Anyway, he didn't really know if I could go to the funeral or not because he wouldn't be organising the d*mn thing.
And he did think hard, but couldn't come up with a name for someone else I could see. He said that none of them were really very good. We're in a major city with hundreds of shrinks, so I really don't know what to make of that comment. Also, I wonder if he thinks he falls into the not-very-good categoy, or if he believes he's the only one in town who is decent. Neither one really sits very well with me.
Oh, and re the animated furniture comment, he was actually glad that I thought he was animated. Definately a glass half full kind of guy.
