Pepper and I were driving in the car alone together when I started a new conversation...
Me: I think I'd like to try seeing a therapist.
Pepper: What kind of therapist?
Me: You know, the kind you talk to- the shrink kind.
Pepper: We have no money for a therapist- just talk to me.
Me: (5 minutes of just talking about thoughts, worries, hopes etc.)
Pepper says nothing when I finish talking. There is total silence in the car.
Me: Ummm.... I think when a person stops talking the shrink is supposed to say something.
Pepper: I'm thinking.
Me: What are you thinking?
Pepper: I'm wondering what bills we can skip this month so you can see a therapist.
Me: Thanks a lot!! :)
