I'm smiled reading your reply. My T uses the ticker tape analogy all the time. She'll sometimes say, "I wish there was a ticker tape above your head telling me what you are thinking, but there isn't. So I really would like you to share with me what thoughts are going through your head."
Another piece of this appointment puzzle that upset me, and it's probably not worth explaining, but I've been thinking about it, so here it is. Originally what started the change came from her. She told me, "Beginning in January my schedule is going to change, and I will no longer will available on Thursdays at 1:45. Are you able to come earlier at x or z?" It was then that I told her I was thinking of asking to change to Tuesdays anyway. WELL ... last week I let her know that I was going away to New York for business, and could I reschedule my Friday appointment. And what time did she offer me? Not my Thursday at 1:45, but immediately after at 2:30. I guess this upset me because I inferred that she was leaving early on Thursdays, hence offering me two earlier times. Now 2 weeks later, she is offering me a time after my old appointment that I have had for 2 years. I'm confused. Was I bumped??? And now, am I being bumped AGAIN??? I think these 2 interactions combined really got me angry.
Deep breath, sigh. I finally got it all out now. Do I have to tell her this piece of the puzzle too?
