[quote=Anonymous]I'm "book smart," fantastic test scores, pick up languages effortlessly, love complex fiction with a lot of literary allusions and stuff. My DH can barely remember "hola" and "gracias" for our Spanish-speaking nanny, sometimes puts cups and bowls in the dishwasher right side up because he forgets that they need to be upside down (!), and reads only fantasy novels or spy stories. But he has a level of detail-oriented focus and a stamina for just getting sh!% done that I marvel at. Hearing him on conference calls with coworkers talking about technical things, I can't even imagine being able to keep up. Like PP, I've had to realize -- and really come to love -- that comparing our academic backgrounds wouldn't even begin to tell an outsider anything meaningful about our "smarts."[/quote]
