My brain is shot. It's just a puddle of goo. I actually just asked Jared how to spell 'goo' because I couldn't figure it out. Yep, it's bad. I described it earlier today as having cobwebs in my brain. Just plastered around confusing me. I can't concentrate in counseling sessions and I cannot find the right words. I stumble around looking for the word, any word that would communicate what I'm thinking. Alas, I just mumble something about eight days in the week and then realize there are only seven. Yes, that happened. But, today took the cake. I was on the phone this morning with the sponsor of one of my patients. She is an older woman thankfully. At the end of our conversation, I thanked her for her time and then stated, "I love you. Bye." Hung up. Face starts turning red. Eyes are huge. Do I call back and apologize for telling a complete stranger that I love her? Do I ignore it and pretend that she heard me say "Talk to you soon" or "Call if you need anything"? I called back. I couldn't let it go and I didn't want her to think that I run around throwing out the "I love you's." She was very nice about it and appeared pleased to let more love exist in the world. That was at 9:30 this morning. It's just going downhill very quickly.
Good night. I love you.

Thank you so much for this. I needed to laugh out loud. And I have also told a complete stranger, on the phone, that I love them. You are not alone.
Remember the time in college when I called an left you a voicemail and said Hi Amy this is Alison! Thanks for making me laugh out loud this morning!
love you too, amy
