Today's update...

Well, I dropped off D this morning and I was a bit sad as she said "I'll see you in a few days, Dada." She kind of struggled through this b/c she didn't know when she was going to see me next. She wasn't upset, but she was searching for the right thing to say and that made me so sad to see her struggling so much as well. Why can't W see this too? I guess it's b/c she doesn't want to see it.

Anyway, I came to work and things were fine. Around 1, I noticed W had sent two texts, the first at 9:50 and the 2nd at 12:00. Both said the same thing: "I may need a favor. Can u text?" I repled to her when I got her texts asking what she needed and she called right away to tell me she had a "major migraine," she didn't go to work, and didn't think she could drive to get D. I told her I'd take D gladly and asked if there was anything I could do for her. She said she'd let me know and thanked me sincerely twice. I'll call at the usual 7:30 if we don't hear from her, but there is ZERO way I'm passing up time w/ D.

So, I'll be off to get D shortly and we'll hang out again today. I gave her some new "Kim Possible Kimmunicator Walkie-Talkies" today, so we can play w/ them tonight or maybe go for a bike ride or something. I'm excited to be w/ her, but I do hope W feels better.

The big question in my head is, why the migraine today? What caused her so much stress? Wishful thinking has me hoping her seeing me behaving well this weekend had something to do w/ it, the guilt is rushing out, or the OM showed his true colors and maybe got caught (literally) w/ his pants down. I know I can't speculate on why, but it makes me wonder a bit.

Regardless of the why, I won't be changing my actions as they are working a teeny, tiny bit to put some thaw on the ice queen. If this is the galatial pace we'll be working at, I may be retired before we can show signs of getting back together, but I'm willing to be patient, work on me, be a good daddy and see what happens. Other than that, there ain't much I can control about W, so I won't try.

I do find it interesting the migraine hit today. It just seems weird.

Got to go get my little gal. I'll tell more when I get the chance.
