Strange Brew by John Deering for June 09, 2020

When your analyst says, “TMI” you have a BIG problem.

I think it’s cheaper to tell the problems to bartender or to a taxi driver, they also give you a service and sometimes good advice.

Not a bad idea: If he’s forced to think about what’s important to tell, maybe he’ll realize what’s actually important.

Gonna be a short & less costly session.

Gotta take back some words, interesting.

My mom was one of those people who should have been a propsmaster in the theater. When she told a story, she had to set the stage before any action could take place.

One day she was telling me a story and after telling me what day of the week the event happened, what the weather was like, where my father and she had gone to dinner, what was on the menu, what they had to eat, who they met, what the waiter’s name was and the color of his shirt …

I finally interrupted her, “Mom, just the details, please!”

Move over.

Is that a bust of George H. W. Bush?

Help me feel validated first.

You see all those degrees on the wall. That means that I’m smarter than you and don’t have to listen to your boring stories about your childhood.

The analyst used to work as an editor.
