How do you keep all the dirt inside the collector bag from sticking to the tape?

Exactly. I would think the little bugs and hairs and whatnot would occlude the...uh...image.

I hug your over-emotional body.

Body is unemotional. It's the inside that's emotional. Thankee.

I've kinda got my hopes up that i'll get on to this Night Line thing...and i'll be really dissapointed if i dont get on. Based on the feedback i got from my assessments, i did well. I'm anxious to receive the email telling me i'm on, and to attend this weekend's training sessions...

*crosses fingers in hope*

Oh, and there's something else, but i dont want to share yet- i dont want to jinx it

I am very pleased to be able to tell you that you have been accepted as a Nightline Volunteer. The trainers felt that you had an excellent grasp of all the skills needed to be a good volunteer on the lines. I’d like to take this opportunity to give you my congratulations and to welcome you to the organisation.

Congrats!!

Congratulations. Now, what is a Nightline Volunteer?

I suspect it is one of those people that sits by a phone all night and talks people out of doing something foolish. Like I tried to do many years ago.

A ballot cast, a prayer made. One can only hope it was the right choice

Well, that was my guess, but I didn't want to assume.

I have such "foolishness" in my past, too. And, boy, was I ever pissed off when I failed. Don't regret it, and would probably do the same if confronted with the same circumstances again. I had no one to fight for me, and I had no fight left in me -- just pain.

As for what i'll be doing, nightline is basically a service run for students, by students. It runs during term time only (semesters). The lines open at 6pm, and close at 8am. The service provides out-of-hours access to someone who will just listen. We are a listening service only- no advice, no suggestions, nada. We are completely confidential, and non judgemental. I wouldnt say we 'talk someone out of it' but yes, we do try and get the person to see the situation from a different point of view.

Here is more info Nightline website

This experience will compliment my Counselling training, the skills are the same, as is most of the practice.

I am excited

I'm trying to see both this, and the counselling i am training for as a facilitative role. Someone once said not to think of it as your failings, you are merely the facilitator.

The client makes the decisions, and all you do i guide them to think differently- perhaps even more constructively. It is the client's journey, and you are just along for the ride...

Its something i know i have to work on- not taking it personally.

Calling Nightline will cost the same as calling any London landline. We can also call you back if you are on a landline, although not on a mobile.

so if I'm calling from a landline in the US, will you call me back?

 

[rgraham666]

Sigh. Ask her out, Rob. The worst she can do is laugh.

no

but you can call us on skype or send an email

Email??

"Um,Grace. I'm suicidal. I'm killing myself. Goodbye."

How does that work? Really.

 

[Chantilyvamp]

some days you just want to grab them by the necks and squeeze the very fucking life out of them for being such intolerant bastards. And today I have the mother-of-all cramps so this is one of those days.

Ah, go on, Rob. Ask her out. She might be thrilled.
