You can't fool me, you do so care, and I know it.

Shoot, that wasn't why I called.

You have been doing some really good work.....wanted to comment on some of them but no time to do a proper job. I did read your update (on the dream thread.) I am going to post some more on that thread, and I will comment on your comments when I get to it. Been buried lately, not much better now, HOWEVER, wanted to tease you a little tonight.

Don't have time to go looking for my thread now, and post to it too, so will do it later.

Don't get too upset with CW, he cares about people too - and say, did your H ever get on your bad side? Ever have fireworks at your house?

Made you laugh !

See you later. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Yea, well, he really hurt my feelings - and then he floored me when he posted that to eric. Then he blasts ME because he misunderstands what I'm even upset about?!?! Whatever - I still think the original post was disrespectful to his wife - which doesn't even seem to matter to him. Yes my H and I fight (not often these days) but he doesn't YELL AT ME LIKE THAT!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> Allright - so maybe it is a bit silly.....

***done pouting***

Hey, did you read??? I'm working on a book!! I just bought a half a dozen recommended books on infidelity to add to the other half a dozen I've already read - just to see if anything else touches the subject from a WS perspective like I would. I figure even if I never get it completely written or published, it still helps me to compile my thoughts. I have a mentee now from SYMC and it's a very rewarding experience! Difficult - emotional - but hits closer to my heart than these darn computers!

No, it isn't silly. Your feelings are involved, and CW's feelings are involved, and both of you are important. Ya know, I think I understand your feelings - I can identify.

Remember (and you already know this, the reason I sound good sometimes is that I can tell you what you already know) Now, where was I? Oh yes, remember that we understand and react differently on different days. Depends on lots of things. I am telling you this for a reason - you will get it if you think about it.

Seek first to understand, then to be understood.

It may not be word for word - I'm not going to look it up because the book is home, not here at work. Understanding doesn't always mean *words*.

Does thinking in a different direction help sometimes? Now, I realize you already got it before I came and typed this stuff, but I wanted to touch on it anyway, because I usually always do.

It's about time you used those brains for a big project like a book. I want my copy autographed!
Have you got a publisher? Can I see the cover design? How many pages? Are we there yet?
Oh, sorry - kind of slipped back into childhood there for a minute. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

I'm still thinking about that. I don't even *make* time to get back and post to people on MB that I ought to. Having a hard time understanding how I could do a good job on SYMC. My W says I promise too much time to others - and I ought to learn to say no. When you want to help, it is hard to do.

Tell me more about it - how it is different from MB, and tell me about the time factor?


I am still planning to comment on your update, but probably be a while. See ya around - and honestly, I think you could do a good job on a book. It has been said that everyone has at least one book inside waiting to get out. Maybe you have two?

Hope,
I posted a note for you over on the other thread.

I'm sorry that I got so upset. That's the second time it's happened where I read the words and misinterpreted the feeling or expression behind them.

When I'm depressed I get very sarcastic as you experienced.

Sorry for the threadjack, SS.

Oh geez, now I really do feel like a heel. Your depression and my PMS make for a fine combination of sarcasm and pissiness!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

I really felt bad for what I wrote and was having a hard time figuring out what on earth got to me so bad - but then mother nature visited today - so I have my womanly excuse <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="images/icons/blush.gif" /> Darn women can get away with anything!! LOL!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

So I apologize as well for my tantrum!!
