> I hate calling or emailing her between sessions. She keeps telling me I am not a pest, but then again she may change that opinion because I've called her twice this week and she's on vacation. Though I did say she does not have to call me back I just needed to vent. Maybe I'll email her...

Once, I called my T and told him I was upset. He called back, but had to leave a message. We ended up playing phone tag during the day trying to schedule a time to talk. When I got home, he had left another message. I guess I was frustrated about playing phone tag, so I told him I was feeling better and he didn't we didn't need to talk. Two minutes later, I called back and said I really did need to talk, but I wouldn't be available until 9 or 9:30, so I wasn't sure what to do. He called at 9 and left a message for me to call him when I got home, he'd be up until 11. Then, he told me he was glad I called back and told him I needed to talk. Sigh. Talk about being a pest... :(It's difficult to need them so much. :(
I hope you're doing alright, ::::Poet:::: <---those are air hugs. Good luck with your job situation!
