Therapy according to Storm

[misterx]

We were driving in the car yesterday, and Storm said something silly, and I responded with "Are you INSANE?!?" Several quick turns of phrase later found me singing "Insane in the Membrane" by Cypress Hill, while Storm countered with "Frontier Psychiatrist" by The Avalanches.

Partway through I interrupted Storm to ask if she knew what therapy was.

"Sure. That's when you are insane in the membrane, so you go to a place, and they give you a squeezy thing that squeaks*. And you squeeze it all day long so it's eyes pop out it's ears pop out until its dark outside. Then they give you a doll and you have to scream and punch it until it's head blows off. It's supposed to help calm you down."

* I think she is referring to one of those Martian squeeze toys

Whaaaaaat? How did I miss exchanges like this?!?

How are the trees doing?

I guess we both have to be in the right mood. :)

The trees. Yeah. Yesterday I was giving up hope, as they had turned brown and the leaves were brittle and falling off. Today, this morning though, Melanie pointed out new leaf growth on two of the three. So they may make it after all.

Hmm that might be more effective than some of what I've seen performed in the name of therapy?!

LOL

Agreed. And I still don't get why I had to undress everytime I went to see my therapist.

wow, if they had handed me one of those instead of making me slog through all those angsty years of talk therapy, I'd have been much happier much sooner! ;->

indeed. if you get all the frustration/anger out, you don't really need to talk about it. ;)

And if it isn't that way, it should be.

[ianlyzu.livejournal.com]
