BLINK

the book's title took on an entirely different meaning for me as i read the first few chapters - i was blinking away tears, i'm sad to report.

so if i'd honed my thin-slicing skills regarding relationships, would i have then immediately recognized that this most recent one was doomed from the start???

HOW TRAGIC.

but i pressed on and am about halfway through the book, although i'm completely disheartened. =(

HOW DEPRESSING!

managed to finish blink at some point but i guess i was just finishing to finish, so i forgot i finished so i brought the book on the plane w/me on this most recent trip, only to realize i was rereading the last few chapters. there were some cool references in that book - like gottman, math, medicine, marketing, lots of psych-related stuff so that was cool. but it wasn't a page-turner, obviously.
