Real Work Conversations
Thursday, February 23
Me: Did the interview go OK?
Paul: It was fine.
Me: Did you work in a reference to the Starland Vocal Band?
Paul: No, I forgot to. Was hard to find an opening.
Me: You probably didn't look hard enough.
Paul: I could have said something like 'and we'll have some contemporary works up as well, say from the 1970s ... a decade dominated by the Starland Vocal Band.'
Me: That would have worked.

A friend at school will soon be giving each other "Words You Have To Use In Therapy." This post reminds me of that idea -- like you told him to use Starland Vocal Band in the interview beforehand.
So, right before his session I'll give him a word he has to try to work into the session and he'll do the same before my sessions.
Nothing too outlandish, but still not a word we would normally use. Something like "rapscallion."
