Self-Help at Bo's House....

*
You're waiting for someone to understand you,

But you've got demons in your closet,

And you're screaming out to stop it,

Saying life's begun to cheat you,

Friends are out to beat you,

Grab on to what you can scramble for....

("Hide in Your Shell", Supertramp)

Each of us here in Bo & Blaine's household has our own unique method of psychiatric "self-help", none of which I think my therapist, Fred, would approve--- but I'll list them here in case anybody else finds them helpful:

Blaine's Macho-Man Method:

Nothing bad happens in this world that a good sized, bacon-wrapped, filet-mignon of Kansas beef won't fix, preferably matched with a baked potato the size of your head:

*

Leonard's "Seinfeld" Method:

"SERENITY NOW!"

*

Little Baby's Usual Asshole-Cat Method:

"I'm not listening to you while thinking: "la-la-la-la-la-la...."

*

Bo's "What Does Fred Know?" Method:

Nothing bad in this world happens that a pretty shade of "L'Oreal" blonde hair color can't remedy....especially if it means optimum shock value when I next walk into Fred's office sporting a completely different hair color than I had at our previous appointment.....

*

Don't let the tears linger on inside now,
Cause it's sure time you gained control,
If I can help you, if I can help you,
If I can help you, just let me know...

You really do have a way with words you know.
