I didn’t get it. The book was much clearer. This movie made no sense to me but I hear the original movie is quite differnt than this Director’s Cut version.

For me, worth it, but don’t think most people would like this audio book. Its a little out there.

I’ve been reading a lot of heavy stuff lately. Iwanted to take a break for something light and fun. Besides for some reason, whenever there’s a nip in the air, I start craving an audio book.

It took to long to get to the point. Plus I didn’t like the part were they said its ok to let a customer service person “have it” because you’re probably never speak to them again. That really turned me off and left me less open to any other advice that may have follwed. Here’s why:

• A customer service person doesn’t own the company. There one of the little guys.

• Taking you’re aggression out on the little guy is being a bully.

• Letting someone have it because you know you’ll never see them (or speak to them again) seems cowardly.

It just seems to read like bad advice from a well meaning friend. Maybe, in the future, I’ll flip through it again. I can tell there are probably some nuggets of wisdom in there. I just have to sift through the bad stuff and see what works for me but not now. I’m just to turned off.

Love it. I’m hooked.

A nice treat.

I added the, For Married Women Only because this book seems to definately be aimed at married women but I got some stuff out of it.

I learned a lot. For instance, when they talk about guys seeing a girl they like and trying to picture her naked, I thought that was just an expression. I didn’t know they literally try to picture us naked!

It also talked about how men view our physical appearance in a way that was educational and didn’t make me sick. According to the surveys most of the guys said they understand how age and gravity affect our looks. They just didn’t want us to completely give up and give in to the fight.

The way she (and her husband) explained it was like this. He doesn’t expect you to be a size three but when you start living in sweats and hardly ever bother with the hair and makeup “it’s like a guy going from a corporate raider to a minimum wage slacker”. I was a little mad when I read that. Shouldn’t a man love you no matter what? After some thought I kind of understood. It would be like if I fell in love and married a CEO of a huge company and then a resession or depression hit. Even if he had no money and were out of work I’d still love him. If he had to do get a job at McDonald’s, I’d still love him. If he said, “The economy isn’t getting any better. This is just the way it is. We have to except it.” and he weren’t even trying to improve the situation by apply for a management position, I’d still love him but it would bother me that he’d just given up.

I learned a lot of other stuff too. It was a good read. If I ever get married, I’ll definately have to reread it.

Because I can’t figure out what goes through most guys heads. The author wrote this book with the help of her husband and surveyed many men to research it. I flipped though the other book that she and her husband wrote togther, For Men Only and it seemed to be pretty much on the mark so I’ll trust this one is probably accurate too.

There was a fellow I was talking to that stopped speaking and emailing me out of nowhere. After chapter 2 I figured out what probably went wrong. It appears that with one off hand remark I gave off the impression I didn’t trust him. (Which I didn’t but it was nothing personal. It takes time.) I always had a feeling that men were much more sensitive than women.

So far I’m learning quite a bit.

It looks at the subject from a slightly biblical approach but only slightly. I found this book in the “Christian Life” section. Yet while reading it I forget until every ten to fifteenth pages I’ll come across a biblical reference and be like, “Oh yeah”.

I’m not sure whether to mark this done or give up. The first few chapters have been read but it seems that this is more of a reference book. So far it is a wealth of infomation. It answers all the practical questions about utilites, transportation, neighborhoods, schools, etc. Like a friendly little tour guide.

What the heck. I’ll mark it done. Even though I haven’t read the whole thing. I am done with the parts I need for now and so far, it’s been excellent.

Right now I’m watching the episode were Marylin goes to Seattle the gateway to Alaska because she wants an adventure. Sound familiar? :)
