raybearMy therapist told me last night that I seem to have high energy and in a good space, like I went through and opened all the doors and windows and the air can breeze through. I started to disagree, since this metaphor seems to imply I"m outrageously happy and healthy. But I don't think that's what she meant -- I think I'm just more open and able to see things for what they are, which I can get behind. I could write more about things talked about, but I'll wait. Besides, I'm not sure how fascinating it is to read about other people's therapy session, even when I come back and read this months down the line.
I should read old entries more. I don't take the time to do it very often, but it's harder when you have over two years of near daily writing to cover.
In other celebratory news, I passed the halfway mark on the novel. I must confess I've been a tiny bit obsessed with monitoring the word count of other writers in Chicago. I was in the top five or top ten for most of the time, which I found encouraging, but then something happened this week and a lot of folks saw the 25,000 mark within sight and suddenly I'd been bumped down the list. But now I too have crossed 25K, so I don't care as much. And now I can actually do some work at work.
