Well, sometimes. Last year, my new year's resolution was to become more

assertive. After people stopped being flabbergasted, it was easier.

Being empathetic doesn't have to mean being a doormat, yes?

It shouldn't, but it's something I have to work on as well. Hehe, matter of

fact, I just got " The Idiot's Guide to Assertiveness " .

That was really interesting! I scored a 37 on the EQ and 44 for the

SQ, which when you plot it out on the graph makes me male brained, but

not to the extreme, although the SQ of 44 was in the more category.

laughed and said he could have told me that I had a more male

brain. He's going to take the test too. Thanks. That was fun!

Can I borrow that when you are done. LOL!

I bet your husband doesnt' call you a boy with bumps. LOL!

To this day I fail to see the advantages of beeing seen as " one of the

guys " . I really hate it when I am expected to join in on guy

conversations...like when they are discussing Playboy or something just as

nauseous. I will still never forget the day that called me excited and

had to share with someone that there were blonde triplets in Playboy. That

man really needs to find a girlfriend. LOL!

Hey, I don't think people walk all over me, but I do tend to know what

people are thinking and wanting. Lou used to think I could almost read his

mind, but then he was sadly lacking in people skills.

My mother was so good at it that we all thought she was psychic.

Glad for the company. You and I can be blunt

OK, the way I see it is we need all types. Those of us

under 25 or so can be factual and blunt and practical

and those of us near the other end of the list can

offer warm shoulders and acceptance.

It's a great list that makes room for all of us.

Thanks Jacquie.

I'm like that too, Sue. My latest effort has been to save the Family

Resouce Center at 's school from budget cuts. I did a

presentation, I bugged TN legislators, I emailed the superintendent of

schools...I don't know if I made a difference, but the Family Resource

Center WILL return next year. Yeah!

Ok, too many posts today. Was your score low or high? I can't remember so

I don't know why majoring in Social Work would be pathetic. Sorry.
