Therapist: “Let’s try a new exercise, mainly because all of the other exercises have failed to get you to emotionally adjust in any satisfactory way. Why don’t we spend the rest of our session with you thinking of things you wished someone had said to you as an […]
Note: This is an older post, so the babblings about an impending adventure no longer apply, at least not at the moment. As my last two missives concerned New Orleans, the lovely Angie at “King Ben’s Grandma” requested that I share more Nifty Nuggets from NOLA. Here’s another […]
Another one from the archives, slightly dated, still relevant… Once again, I have failed to produce another Park installment in a timely manner. The Grand Scheme of Things involves letting these posts fly on Sundays. It is now Tuesday evening, late, practically Wednesday, and I am just […]

In days of yore, such a conversation would remain confidential and sacrosanct. But let’s get […]
