I always thought my therapist and your old therapist were therapist-twins. They have almost identical strengths and weaknesses.
He apologized of course, and asked if I would forgive him. I reminded him this was hardly a new behavior and if I forgave him all the other times, I'm sure to forgive him this time. But that it did make me feel kind of alone in this. I think he was a bit annoyed that I hadn't forgotten the other times. And reminded me of the times he *had* called me back. True enough. But I find it helpful to me to remember that he might not be all that reliable, so that I'm not hurt so much each time.
And I'm glad I remembered the joke, and that it irritated me. He of course didn't remember, but said something like "Noted." in response to my saying I didn't find it particularly funny since I seriously worried about that myself.
Thanks for all your support, Muffled.
