Not only do I have a picture, I have a video! Of my old T, not my new one. I haven't developed a desire for any pictures of my new one so far.
I actually have two pictures, both of which I got on the internet. In one he looks like he's about 10 years younger, and actually I don't like it at all. The other one is much better. I took the video during our last session, with my digital camera. It's only 30 seconds long. He was not really into the video idea, but he graciously went along with it for my sake. So I have him babbling on, very seriously about how he hopes I'll keep working on things even when it's hard, etc. My favorite part is at the end I say, "Your time's almost up." And he says, "Good." And then it ends.
I have only watched it a couple of times since I took it, but I *love* the fact that he let me take it. And I like that he's all uncomfortable in the video. It reminds me that he's just a regular guy. You know how sometimes your therapist becomes so super important? And then you show up in their office, and remember that they're just a person? The video does remind me what he's like. Plus, in my video I actually like what he says, even though he was kind of reaching to come up with something wise.
He's just so much himself.- p
