Well, the roses worked! She was very excited and said "haven't gotten any of those in a long time". Little does she know, that's because I've been DBing and not pursuing for a while. We stayed in for dinner and watched "Shakespeare in Love" on the new iTunes movie rentals. Very cool.

I did some e-mail snooping and found this message to OM:
"Thanks for the sexy text yesterday, I still don't think it's a good idea for me right now, but thank you."

That ticked me off. And she's complaining he won't leave her alone? My wife isn't like this, and hopefully she'll come out of it.

Later we had an interesting conversation, after ML went very, very well.

Me: That's a good sign
W: Of what?
Me: That you're more relaxed
W: Then why do you have your wedding ring on?
- this was really just an accident, I put it on earlier in the day and forgot about it. I told her that it didn't mean anything.

We e-mailed back and forth all day, and I invited her to a surprise weekend, which she accepted. Plans are:
Museum Saturday night (her idea)
Stay here Sat. night:

Go here Sunday morning:

She's going to love it, and I have a bit of an ulterior motive. Before we separated, she talked about quitting her job, buying clothes at the Market Center and selling them on Ebay. Her mom had a similar successful business. The problem was, it's not open to the public and is very hard to get access. I found a way to get in, and while we're there maybe I'll bring up her idea again?

It's strange, because in some ways I've switched to pursuit mode, but it seems to be working. Or maybe she's just playing me while keeping things going with OM. Time will tell. I wish she'd come to church on Sunday night with me, but she's not up for that yet. Another thing to add to the goals.
