Finally had my therapy session today! We had to skip two sessions because my therapist had a congress and a couple of emergencies this week, so today I talked twice as fast as normal to make up for lost time. I very much needed it, as yesterday I had a horrible, one-hour-long phonecall with a friend of mine who's suffering from depression. She's seeing a therapist as well, but she just started, and yesterday she called me and sobbed the whole time. I did manage to pick up her spirits by the end, but it was a very, very tiring experience for me as well. I had horrible nightmares all night, and woke up at 4 am screaming.
Today I feel much better. Therapy went great, the weather is lovely, and there was little to no acqua alta, so I didn't ruin my shoes. I did some grocery shopping on the way home, and decided to buy pineapple juice. It is my cousin's favourite, so I only buy it when she's here, and then she's the only one to drink it. I think I hadn't had any in years, and today I sat down with a glass of it and did my best Arthur Shappey impression for the benefit of Sakura before drinking it all in one go. It tastes better than I remembered, although I have to agree with Gerry here, it is quite acidic. XD
I had nothing planned for the afternoon, except ironing a bunch of laundry, but then I thought I could start on North & South, the BBC series. I was expecting it to be good, but I wasn't expecting it to be so BRILLIANT. The story was gripping, the acting incredible (besides Richard Armitage being absolutely glorious, if anyone knows of any other show or movie with the actress who played Margaret do rec please, because I'm utterly in love with her), and I only stopped once to change the dvd and make a cup of tea. At the start of the third episode Sakura decided she was bored and came to sit on my lap, then on my arm, then she sprawled on both of them, and started snoring. By the end of the fourth episode my right arm was all pins and needles. :D Anyway, such a great series, now I'd like to read the book too! Next on my list of "stuff Richard Armitage was in that looks good and therefore I must see": Robin Hood! Can't wait!
