How I did it
How to get therapy.
It made me
purposeful

How I did it: I kept putting off getting therapy because I thought I wasn't ready to take on the extra expense.  Then I realized that part of the reason I feel like I can't take on extra expense is because of my psychological money issues, which is partly what I need therapy for.  I figured that it was probably worth investing in now and maybe the therapy will help me deal with it. Read how I did it…

Sent in my requests for 2009... here's hoping! 13 months ago

Just to try and cover more bases, I sent in a reservation request at midnight spain time on the 13th, 14th and 15th. Maybe my ninja skills at getting a French Laundry reservation indicate that my reservation mojo is good this year.

Have a reservation 13 months ago

My boyfriend agreed to take me to French Laundry for my birthday (in november). I was a little worried, because everything I read made it sound extremely hard to get reservations. I called today at exactly 10am and after two tries was able to get through and get a reservation for two for dec. 18th (it’ll be a late birthday present).
