> More questions for club members:
>
> Holidays -- cards? Gifts? I'm thinking something little and symbolic.I don't my pdoc gifts, I don't celebrate Christmas so I'm sure he understands.
> Office comfort -- too hot, too cold - Do you speak up or dress in layers?He always asks me if I'm cold or if he should turn the heat up. Usually I say I'm fine (even if I'm cold), but occasionally I get the courage to say, "I am a little cold."
> You drive in the parking lot at the same time. You are a tiny bit early (8 min). Do you wait until they go in to the building or get out and walk in with them.(I was saved by the bell - my cell rang!)Hmm, never had the experience. I wouldn't want to walk in with him though. One thing that does bother me, is that when he comes into the waiting room to get me for my app., he makes me walk in front of him to his office. It makes me feel self-concious like he's looking at my rear.
> Your appointment usually falls on Thursday. Do you make an appointment on another day that you KNOW will be totally booked and you are being "sqeezed" in (admitting to the NEED)...or do you skip to the next week? (
Yup, I have done that.
> About reading Psych books - do you tell what you are reading? Give them a copy?
He knows I took psych. classes in college. He knows I still do my own studies on it. At first he seemed a bit thrown off by my knowledge of what he was talking about, but then he said it was nice cause he didn't have to explain so much.
