And moving the topic back a tad closer to Isabella's original post, I got a reminder of how easy misunderstandings are in this hobby and how assuming things can be so wrong. I set a last weekend appointment with a lady here for Sunday afternoon. I have seen her twice but it's been quite a while.
I grew increasingly frustrated Saturday night when (I thought) she was not returning my texts. I wound up canceling because there was one question I needed answered that I had not had answered. I finally figured out today that my burner app had screwed up. She was texting me but I was not seeing them. And she had answered the question to my satisfaction. Stuff goes wrong here all the time but I was reminded that assuming someone's intentions can often lead to the wrong conclusion. She offered me a discount on our next session but I won't accept it. She did nothing wrong at all. The fault was all mine.
