Ack. I was just out for lunch, and my cell phone rang. I was driving so I picked it up without looking at the caller ID. Of course, it was her, calling to tell me she transferred $3,500 from our savings to checking as she needed it for the retainer for lawyer, and we agreed to let each other know about any movements of money. D*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn, d*mn... I wished I had just let it roll to voice mail. :-(

On the brighter side, when she asked if I had a minute, I replied that I had "just a minute". In response to her comment about moving money, I just said "OK. Thank you". I then said "Talk to you later" and I ended the conversation. I got the feeling she might has been a little confused by the brusqueness...
