Dr Katz's Me at a Glance

by Glenn Eichler

Summary

IF FOUND PLEASE RETURN TO


DR. JONATHAN KATZ


PROFESSIONAL THERAPIST


To whom it may concern:


This organizer is the property of Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist. Regardless of how it may have
come into your possession, I would greatly appreciate your self-control in not opening it and poring
over its contents. That would be like going through your grown son's backpack or steaming open your
ex-wife's unforwarded mail, to name two completely fictional examples I've made up off the top of my
head. I mean, a person often carries things in his organizer that are not meant for public viewing.
Like:


The rejection letter from Opera News for my proposed article, "Are the Three Tenors Codependent?"


Some of the songs I've written for my folk-rock group, Katz and Jammers. I'm especially proud of
"Johnny Talltree, Mining Man." You'll smell the sweat!


The menu for the coffee bar I want to open when I retire. Jonathan's Big-Bite Biscotti, anyone?


Some notes for my self-help book, Stop Hurting Your Own Feelings!


A traffic ticket received by someone who apparently took my car for a "joyride." Someone who looks
a lot like my son, Ben.


An invitation to an art show by one of my patients, "Fifty Ways to Kill Your Therapist."


A list of potential careers for my son, Ben. I can dream, Can't I?


So you can see why it's very important that should you find this book, you do not read it .
Please do not take it home and go through every paragraph, laughing your head off, highlighting the items you find funniest,
calling your friends to read them the juicy parts. And Ben, if you should happen to find
this book, well, I think I understand your feelings. And we can talk about it son. Okay?


Dr. Jonathan Katz
