i disagree mark gungor, i disagree

i listen to the radio in the mornings and when focus on the family came on today a comedian was going over all the typical communication differences between men and women.  we've all heard it before so i do not need to elaborate.  towards the end of the program he starts to defend 'the men' and 'not hearing what wives say' excuse by blaming it on women multitasking and walking into other rooms, talking through doors etc. yes, this is true but it's not always the case and more often than not those multitasking mentions where probably reminders of something that was communicated at point blank range.

for instance.
date: friday evening
place: the couch, right next to each other, not on opposite ends, next to each other.
activity: a conversation.  the one where he says something, i respond, and vice versa.

sitting on the couch conversing i mention that i have to go to afc so it's perfect that he only feels like staying home.  3 minutes later (round about, it could have been 140 seconds) i say: "oh, i need to leave for swissvale soon".  his response: "what? why are you going to swissvale".  me: "afc."  him:  "huh, when did you tell me that!"  me: "THREE MINUTES AGO AND YOU WERE STARING INTO MY EYES WHEN I SAID IT".

i must say i didn't scream it at him but the caps represent the feeling disbelief, a bit of frustration, and it was the perfect opportunity to say "you can never call me a nag because if i didn't, you'd never know anything".  and this is true because the giant desk calendar with all our events on it is too much of a bother for him.

it's not that i don't love you babe, i just had to lower the steel curtain of evidence in response mark gungor and his defense of man.
BELIEVE ME i could have used a funny picture here, but i chose the sweet one instead
