Ok, let me re-word that because it didn't come across like I meant it. I mean that I am too active of a participant in our arguments and ultracations to be considered a victim. I guess I picture victims as being passive, whereas I am more agressive than passive. Does that make sense?
It sounds like that book has been a great read for you, it makes me all the more anxious to pick it up. I've never had so much trouble getting to the bookstore before The kids and I have been sick since last Friday. So, maybe I'll get there this weekend. And I'll pick up Corri's recommendation as well.
