Makes sense to a man. Here are your orders, you got all your resources in hand, when you arrive on the scene you will gather intel and execute the mission.
Me thinks she wanted to know how you were going to do it before you did it. Some people are information seekers it provides comfort. I am sure you ran into guys like this in the Army, can't make a decision because they think they might make the wrong move so they need more intel, meanhwile the situation has changed. When there are too many variables at play it stresses them and they want to defer the decision to someone else. Like she wanted you to lead but be informed along the way. Doesn't excuse her poor reaction. That reaction had nothing to do with the positive outcome. It's one of those female tests that perplex us.
Plus the dynamic of a control freak made her look like a worrier to you. So to balance it out you were probably easy-going and laid-back.
One of the local diners here made it into the just announced Top Ten list. Plus one of my HS hangouts made it, The Bel-Loc Diner, they still have the mini-jukeboxes at the table.
Was the marathon what you expected?
Cheers
