It was kind of blah.
I ended up giving him a small stone that wasn't overly tumbled. It had some small flaws and cracks still, which was apropos I thought.
He'd forgotten what the Newfoundland meant, I could tell, so I politely slid an explanation in the conversation. I did the same with the rock, so that he wouldn't be put on the spot of trying to remember what that meant.
He put the stone with a couple of other stones of similar size that he keeps on his shelf, so I think I made the right choice. He showed me the other two and told me their stories.
I didn't give it to him until shortly before the end of the session. I wasn't in the mood, and kept hoping I'd feel more in tune with him. But it wasn't to be. I was tired. He seemed distracted, and it was just one of those sessions where we didn't click.
