Good day to you, applied behavioral science consumers! A number of you whose emails have bounced have wondered how it can still be true, after almost two weeks since the server change, that I continue to have no working email at gaelenbillingsley.com. This course of events is not just mysterious to me. It is mysterious to my talented inter-webs advisors. Thus far, the most useful thing I have learned in my search for answers is that the tech- help departments of all three of the companies involved are not very helpful. I could blow a gasket, but instead I am going to model good mental hygiene by trying to lighten up the mood under this cloud of corporate technocratic oppression.

I have been soliciting quotes about my work from former clients to use on the new site, and on the back of The Marble Game. I thought I might share some of the highlights. You may enjoy them, and perhaps if the inter-web fairies enjoy them, they might cut me a break!

Enjoy:

"Gaelen Billingsley is the best motherfucking therapist ever. And she keeps chickens, sometimes even in her office! She's queer as a three dollar bill and wears funky jewelry and chunky shoes. And, she has a good sense of humor."

"Gaelen Billingsley is the best high priestess woo woo witch-urban shaman, disguised as a therapist, with a wicked sense of humor you could ever hire. She also makes a mean bowl of soup."

"Gaelen is one of the few real Astronauts in the behavioral science spaceship full of chattering monkeys."

When you feel stuck, and life has handed you a situation that fills you with a sense of helplessness, sometimes all you can do is shift your attention to something else that doesn't hurt so much! It is never a bad idea to do that. At worst, it gives you a chance to get a rest from the grinding stress, and maybe recharge your batteries a bit. At best it can create an opportunity for you to see the situation with a fresh perspective, and new ideas!
