I think I confused you a little. I don't mean to say that you are a control freak just that you like to have things planned and that you want to know what is going to happen in advance. I'm the same way. My friends call me "high strung" You might be totally different than me I just thought I saw some similarities. Anyways when I read the book I started to get it and saw that in my husbands eyes I was becomming a bit of a control freak with the planning, questions about events far away, asking him what he was doing when he was out with friends, trying to arrange every last detail. My husband is waaaay more laid back about these things and so we would clash and I never understood why. Now I do.
I think it really works well with the teqniques in DB about GAL and doing 180's. Which you certainly are doing! I think this other books just helps more with mental perspective and understanding things in that way.
