I'd actually buy "shrink" as a current word before "telephoned." :) Although perhaps it's not so gone out of British usage? And "shrink" doesn't seem like a good patter word. It's like it's made of diction pitfalls. "I tried to call my therapist about it and they said to see him Monday..."?

"I tried to call my therapist about it and they said to see him Monday..."? Yeah, I think that's good. Sondheim might have complained that "tried to call" would have been tricky to make clear because of the d against the t - making it more like "I try to call" in tempo - but I think we would have understood it. :-)
