> So I wanted to tell that story to babble.
**littleone,
I'm glad you shared your "story" with us. I, for one, could very much relate to it. Very much. I too don't know what to share, or when, but also don't feel important enough to take anyone's time. I don't know how to make small talk, which is probably why I never feel like I fit in anywhere whether it's online or in person. My support system, is basically only my T, and I know that isn't good. Certain topics I can vent to a few friends, but I'm still very limited in that area.
But you're right, stories/small talk... I'm lost. Long story short and without going into too much detail, last time I tried telling a story about myself, I ended up going into too much detail. (It actually wasn't though, I mean it was no different than I wouldn't have spoken to a friend.) I honestly didn't think it was inappropriate, I saw it as sort of bonding/sharing with this person; well, it ended up being a huge mistake!> And my little dinosaur is listening in too. He's stayed in my T's office a lot since I got him. He used to hide there and spy on my T to see what he's really like. Now we're okay with our T and the dinosaur just likes to hide there cause it's safe. He's a paper-a-vore, so he nibbles on my T's books when he's hungry. He has come home with me this weekend so we can go to a special place together. He will keep me company and talk to me. He can roar at nasty people, but he's only a baby dinosaur so his roars are really little and quiet.
**Hehee I didn't know you had a dinosaur in your T's office; I like that idea! (He sounds cute too!) :) I actually had an idea awhile back to keep a little Hello Kitty figurine in my T's office. (Me and my little part like HK.) I didn't think it was to spy on her, I think it was more like because I wanted something of mine there to see every week, to feel that "I" belonged there too. (But I like your idea on spying on her! <g>) I planned on secretely placing the figurine there too, but I never did; I was thinking I'd miss it in my apartment, and I was never able to find a duplicate.
