Went to pshrink yesterday for annual GIVE ME DRUGS FUCKER! tweaking. Not a good day to go, as a hot wind was blowing at a steady 75 mph, the sort of thing Raymond Chandler describes in...some Raymond Chandler novel. You know. Burnt sienna. Santa Anita. Except not in California, so it doesn't get a name except for "That goddamn fucking wind already."

While we were chatting, I suddenly felt overwhelming and inexplicable desire to biff him about the head and shoulders with his plastic half-brain (that's not an insult -- he has a plastic half-brain on his credenza, next to the foot-high gozinta doll). Transference. Or he's really got to do something about that god-awful depressing decor.

Complained of chronic sleepiness and dopey can't find words to make sentence thing. He suggested cutting the dose by a quarter. This is my first day at 75% power, and yee argle barg woof zing.

Special note to ahli: The owls are still there.

So I get home and Mom says, "Did he ask you anything?"

"It was weird," I said. "He asked how I felt about my mother, and everything went all grey and there's this big empty space in my memory. Next thing I know I'm on the floor of his office, twitching, and he's bathing my forehead with a cool cloth and saying, 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry, God I'm sorry, I'll never mention it again.'"

She looked at me for a second, and then hit me on the head with the TV page.

You are so evil to your mother.

I hope you get some energy from the one quarter dosage reduction. There's nothing worse than feeling tired and lackluster all the time (unless it's chronic pain).

Which is yet another example of why we all love your mom. I hope the dosage tweaking helps.

My doctor has nothing on his walls. Not a single thing on the waiting room walls, the secretary's office walls or the walls of his office. I think maybe I would like some owls.

Also, maybe you need more B12 like me!!

You and your mom are so funny. You seriously should have your own TV show.

LOL I second this.

Hm. Who will play Ann?

Ooo! Ann's art on TV!

Hey, if Seinfeld can be a show, so can Larimer.

I've said it before, but I love your mother.
