In reply to A thought from Mother Teresa..., posted by dj on July 26, 2000, at 22:13:35
The therapy appointment was at 10:00 not 11:00. I got mixed up. I was desperate for that appointment, but they did fit me in in a couple days. The recptionist was really nice about it and said she knew I wasn't like that. She kept apologizing even though I was the one who made the mistake. It was sweet. I like my doc's office a lot, and, yes, I do still have a crush on him.
