Thanks for asking ladies (wow, four fetching ladies asking about me... ). I am OK. Had a big divorce talk with the wife today. She is convinced that I have had sex with Shrek's wife. Twice. Also, she has convinced herself that I am tracking her, etc, etc, etc. I could go on and on. She looked me dead in the eye and said, "You just can't tell the truth can you?" I told her that I was being honest with her (did not point out to her that she is the one lying about Shrek).

I told her that, in spite of recent events, I love her and I think that we can repair the marriage. She disagreed. Oh, well. She knows how I feel.

She will be proceeding with the divorce soon.

One thing: the custody issue may get contentious. She wants sole custody. I want to share the custody (I want to raise my kids, not sit back and watch Shrek do so). This will involve a battle, and this will only drive wife even further away from me than she is now. I am not sure how to proceed: As a doormat, and let her take the kids. Or fight for my parental rights. This is a non-negotiable issue in her mind. There will be no compromise outside of the courthouse.

I am inclined to take on the challenge at the risk of further alienating her. My kids deserve the fight.
