Some of what wife said was true. I told her she was wrong on what she was wrong about. I started as an unassertive, introverted nerd, many years ago, and now that is changing.
I took assertiveness classes in college, and have read a number of books on it - thanks jp. 'Your perfect right' strikes me as the best of the bunch.
Ran into French guy friend, with whom I had played music last weekend, and he had such a good time that he is buying a bass guitar and we are getting together again (his Saturday morning run was 15 miles this time...), before I leave for the States. Somehow everything clicked at this last jam.
Beard started (last time I had one and shaved it off, I left a Hitler mustache on for an extra day, for fun - you should see how people respond to you - ).
