A Negative and a Positive

--The negative: my new psychiatrist did not work out.  He was tremendously late for my appointment and he barely spoke enough English to carry on a conversation, but I would have been willing to overlook those two things were it not for the other two.  The other two were that he didn't like my medications (automatically thought I was on too many, couldn't deal with Ketamine) and doesn't allow his patients to see therapists outside his practice.  Especially after that last one, the decision was a no-brainer.  I have a therapist whom I know, love, and trust; I can't say any of that about this doctor. So now it's back to square one.

--The positive: the Sabbath is starting in just a couple hours, and I have a special treat waiting for me! This morning I finished my David Hartman book, The God Who Hates Lies.  Now I move on to Lawrence Kushner's River of Light, which is my absolute favorite Jewish theology/philosophy book I have ever read.  I am saving it as a special treat for the Sabbath.

--Now, please meet "AURORA," aging out NEXT MAY.  "Aurora" has brain damage.
