Hello all. Not much to report. After 2 months of a self-imposed moratorium on telephone convos, I have offered to speak with WAW but only on matters directly related to raising our children. Beyond Themselves I can't think of a single thing we have to discuss - certainly any banter or repartee is out.
With respect to the incident I related earlier, I still reject the basic premise of the Mars/Venus communication paradigm, as it provides all-too-easy an exoeration for poor communication skills - "well you just don't understand that when a woman asks, 'What letter comes after Q?' she doesn't just want to hear R but the whole alphabet."
In that particular incident, I said something to the effect of "Nice. Don't give it another thought - I will go back and make it right. Next time, though, do me a favor?"
What?
"Go f*ck yourself - and the horse you rode in on."
