why wy?

It is not reassuring when you are lying face down on a massage table, and the lecturer is demonstrating a technique on you when he says: "See, I must be pyschotic.''

Even if it was just a slip of the tongue.

See, I volunteered to get poked and prodded by fifth-year students doing Bowen technique. It's a strange technique, they flick tendons, and kinda like what kids do to each other in the playground, but with an aim beyond causing pain.

Apparently, I was a very good patient because there were so many things wrong with me that they could fix. And it all followed a certain pattern. So the lecturer was saying, he was hoping for a patient with a certain condition and there I was.

He meant to say ""I must be psychic'', I'm sure. Then again, he did mix up the words twice...
