Oh and I just thought about something else. I think the Doc kind of $hit tested me on Saturday night. Maybe not in the moment on purpose but it stuck out to me. It probably would not have hit my radar screen if I had not dove in deep into R and all the self improvement. Further drives home the point of not rushing into things either.
At the event on Saturday night there was a silent auction so both of us had our own individual cards to bid on stuff with. I put my bid down on a weekend stay at a hotel out of town and my bid was like 3 times lower than what the actual value of it was. I was feeling really good about my chances to win it and the Doc comes over with like 5 minutes left and wants to put another bid on it with her sticker to jack up the price even more. I thought it was kind of stupid, as I had been watching the bidding on it for a while no one had tried to out bid me for an hour. So I told her "no", "don't do it" as I already have this one secured. I told her to essentially go bid on something else if she wanted to spend more money. So what does she do??? She turns around, walks away, gets about 5 feet from me, then turns back around walks in my direction and puts her bid down over mine. Doing exactly what I asked her not to do. I was kind of shocked, not that big of a deal in the action but she straight up ignored what I asked her not to do! Said to my self...."MFer this not going to happen on my watch". So I removed her bid from the sheet, gave her number back to her, and I told her I asked you not to do it but you did it any way. I told her to go bid on something else if she wanted to spend more money. She apologized and told me it was her control issues taking over.
I just shook my head.....at that point I could have cared less if I had won.
Afterwards she proceeded to tell me about 7 times how much she loved me. Bahaaaaa……….unreal!
