I WOKE up 
& my therapist had
JUST 
texted me
LIKE 
five minutes before 

RESCHEDULING 
EXCEPT 
NOT 
EXACTLY 

his thyroid doctor WANTED him to come in
for ANOTHER 
MRI
because he had some 
WEIRD result

COULD I 
come in Thursday 
OR
he could tell them he couldn't come in

WHAT 
I'm gonna SAY
YEAH f*CK your MRI buddy
you GET your happy *SS up here and listen to ME 

BUT 
I MEAN 
it is STARTING to FEEL like 
it MUST be a 
TEST
of SOME kind 

I MEAN 
my assessment of him is that that could not possibly be the case
BECAUSE 
I do not believe he thinks about it that 
DEEPLY 

or remembers my finer points
OR understands me
WELL enough 

BUT 
I GUESS 
I could WANT that for him

I mentioned that I didn't believe 
a much higher percentage 
of what he was
SAYING 

he was saying 
his family 
owned an island
in the caymans 
THIS 
I don't have trouble believing 
BUT 
he was telling me this STORY about 
PRINCE CHARLES 
on the last voyage of the Britannia 
or WHATEVER it was called
he got that right
MAYBE 

timing seemed wrong 
BUT maybe 

they JUST STOPPED by the island 
decided to PLAY for the DAY
did not CHECK 
with anybody 
FIRST

THEY
he & his sister 
we're on the bigger island 
decided they wanted to play too
SO
they rounded up three more twenty something 
young women and hit the island 
SECURITY SAID NO
they CALLED Charles and he said come on

THEY PARTIED 
with charles 
TOOK a BUNCH of ROLLS of FILM
AFTER being TOLD 
NOT to
& THEN we're OFFERED fifty thousand dollars for 
the ROLLS of FILM*

I MEAN, SURE 
I guess it's possible 

DO you HAVE any of those PICTURES 
I ask, I would REALLY like to SEE them

SOMEWHERE 

I find THIS 
ALMOST unbelievable 

it's NOT, really 

WHY do you need to 
KEEP up with
all your 
OLD
stuff

EXCEPT he's technically charging me 
to listen to THIS STORY 
SO
HOW 
does he not have a photo
ON HIS WALL 

I don't REALLY care 
I'm not sure 
WHY
he was telling me that STORY 

I sort of THINK it was 
CONNECTED
to his telling me about 
HOW 
he had dual citizenship and could therefore
ESCAPE 
if things get BAD
WHICH 
OF COURSE they WON'T and I'm just worrying 
UNNECESSARILY 
HE'S NOT 
WORRIED, but he'll be fine with all his money and resources which I do not have access to
BUT he doesn't have the decency to 
NOT 

I'm wondering if 
I'm doing 
therapy 
right

I FEEL like 
I'm making progress 
BUT 
I am not SURE 

WHY
I would FEEL like 
he's just making sh*t up

I MEAN 
I am pretty sure 
I'm not trying to undermine the process 
I guess it COULD be 
WEIRD 
transference 
or 
something 

BUT 
it FEELS 
JUST like
my NORMAL reading someone as making sh*t up

I just don't understand why he would be 

SO
it's distracting 
BECAUSE 
MAYBE 
my TRUSTING him
is IMPORTANT 

AND
if it's NOT 
then WHAT is he DOING 

I MEAN 
MAYBE I just need to be 
COMFORTABLE 
TALKING to 
him

*this is the edited part-- they said no they were keeping the film, and the security detail and charles were like fine no problem you just keep that film with charles partying with four twenty something young girls and a gay guy, what could possibly go wrong
