Forever Babble. Hmmm... Somehow I never thought it would be otherwise.
Yeah, that may not have helped. Even though I routinely ask (to his annoyance) at the beginning of each session if he's got anything to tell me (termination, trips, etc.) he gave me one of those "Oh yeah, I might be out of town the last week of May." It's actually not a bad time for me since I'll be going to Chicago Friday, and the rest of the week is kind of crazy. But it was another of those last minute "Oh yeah" trips. And it probably helped stoke that anger.
I mean, I'm happy he's going on vacation and all. I just wish he wouldn't do the "Oh yeah" last minute thing.
He also got me a bit worried by telling me his practice was part time right now, he just was available for it full time. It's nothing I don't know, but he's given it a couple of years. I imagine he'll start looking for a full time job soon. And although seeing him outside his normal working hours is better than nothing, he really isn't all that good when he's overbooked.
Sigh.
I guess it isn't as incomprehensible as it seemed.
When is your therapist deserting you for a vacation, however well earned.
