i think i'm slowly realizing how much of myself i have to let go in marriage. and it's not parts of me that are vital to who i am or my personality. it's the parts that rally for victory rather than understanding. it's the parts that knock over the catcher to score another run when i was already winning and could of easily trotted home. it's those parts. those parts ingrained in me that would rather fight, than listen. those parts that would rather go to sleep proclaiming individual victory, rather than team victory. my wife is better at certain things than i am. she's better at certain things that i should be better at. for example, we were loading up the futon in the back of the truck to take it away finally and we had these straps that we were using to lock it down. i had seen them used before, but i just needed a little bit of time to figure them out. that's how it is with most things for me: give me a minute or two and i'll figure it out and i'll never forget. but she figured it out faster. and internally, it frustrated me. i wanted to figure it out first and make it work faster. but i didn't and i had to give that one away. but who am i giving it away to? i'm giving it away to my team member. because there's only one team i'm on and i only have one teammate. so if i don't score the game-winning run, hopefully she will. i have to work/think like this. it's not just my show anymore. it's our show. it's our life. it's our future. i'm getting it. slowly. but i'm getting it.
krugman points out there's more high jinx (sp?) going on with some big investment firms. i'd heard about high-speed trading on NPR not long ago.
apparently the UK is going to be investigating high-speed trading/cheating.
