Dr. Madone: I saw you walk by this morning, you didn't see me, but I noticed you've gained a few pounds, are you working out your problems with the endless bounty of Christmas goodies that are everywhere instead of with me.
Me: Well, yeah, maybe a little, but you see it is so much simpler to just down a handful of Christmas cookies or grab one or two (or more) Sees candies. Instant stress release that doesn't require an hour or more of my time.
Dr. Madone: Well how about today, I've got a cancellation, I can work you into the schedule.
Me: Hmm, no it's raining, you know I just don't like to go out when it's raining, the roads get a little slick, I just don't think it would be too safe.
Dr. Madone: Your friends have made excellent progress in group therapy, should I recount for you some of their accomplishments?
Me: No, no that's ok, I know all about it.
Dr. Madone: Well you know there's a big event coming up in February and if you want to get through this, you ought to be getting ready, when can I see you?
Me: Umm, well I'm leaving for Sacramento on Friday and then to Utah on Sunday, I'll be there for three weeks, and then.....
Dr. Madone: Ok, January 10, I've got you on my schedule, no excuses.
Me: Well, I'll just be getting back and....
Dr. Madone: January 10. Goodbye.
Dr. Madone
And if anyone thinks I have a problem 'cause my bike lives in my bedroom, or that I may have a problem with personification of inanimate objects, please don't tell me, I already can't keep my therapy appointments.

My therapist travels if you want to see him while you are in utah (trainer) and I KNOW he's not booked. :)
Hey I might take you up on that, but you'll have to show me how to use it, will it chew my tires?
a little maybe, but it didn't really do anything that noticable to mine.
