Thanks, Declan. Maybe you and I would get on famously, then, because my T and I usually do.
Although we also have had some terrible battles. He say he gets madder at me than anyone else (I think in the world, but let's say of his patients anyway).
Guess there's the Dr. Jeckyl, Mr. Hyde quality to me--
but things went much better than I had any reason to expect. Makes me almost think I'm making "progress."
Heavens to mergatroid. Whatever that means.
Then of course I had a horrible afternoon of wrecking a pretty bad piece of work I was doing. Gagh. It's hard to live with such lack of ability to bring things off-- at all, ever.
Sometimes I do wonder why I'm not good at things. But I guess there's not much I can do except try to be better. Which never works, so far. So I'm bummed out again. You kind of think maybe you'll suddenly become capable, have some sort of sudden touch of magic. But you don't.
Maybe I have to get some sleep. Maybe I'll feel better tomorrow.
Thanks a lot, for your encouragement.
Jost
