…and the one about this movie Fireproof fits right in to the mix.

The following is a description of the book the movie is based on from Amazon.

Inside burning buildings, Captain Caleb Holt lives by the firefighter’s adage: Never leave your partner.

Yet at home, in the cooling embers of his marriage, he lives by his own rules.

Growing up, his wife Catherine always dreamed of marrying a loving, brave firefighter . . . just like her father. Now, after seven years of marriage, she wonders when she stopped being “good enough.” Countless arguments and anger have them wanting to move on to something with more sparks.

As they prepare for divorce, Caleb’s father challenges him to commit to a 40-day experiment: “The Love Dare.” Wondering if it’s even worth the effort, Caleb agrees, for his father’s sake more than for his marriage.

Surprised by what he discovers about the meaning of love, Caleb realizes that his wife and marriage are worth fighting for. His job is to rescue others. Now Captain Holt is ready to face his toughest job ever . . . rescuing his wife’s heart.

I need to right one of these about my engineering profession…it might go something like this:

Inside a stagnant and drab office, Brian Query lives by the structural engineer’s adage: If it isn’t a right angle, it’s a wrong angle.

Growing up, his wife Rebecca always dreamed of marrying a loving, nerdy engineer…completely different from everyone else in her family. Now, after seven years of marriage, she wonders if she can fit into Brian’s world with her curvilinear and organic design mind. Countless arguments about right angles and symmetry have them wanting to just forget about changing the other completely.

As they prepare for renovations in their house, Brian’s father challenges him to commit to a 28-day experiment: “The Obtuse Angle Dare.” Wondering if it’s even worth the effort, Brian agrees, for his father’s sake more than for his renovation plans.

Surprised by what he discovers about the meaning of a right angle and a wrong angle, Brian realizes that his wife and marriage are worth changing for. His job is to make aesthetically appealing bridges. Now Brian is ready to face his toughest job ever…renovating their house where furniture is angled and pictures aren’t symmetric…oh, and winning his wife’s heart?

There, wouldn’t that be a more exciting movie?
