W called last night while I was at the drug store picking-up some cold medicine. She asked what pictures I wanted to order from the kids school photos they are taking today. She noticed that I was sick and asked about it. I told her a little and she sounded sympathetic. Then she told me about my son's cold and a bunch of other people who had colds too.

I mostly just listened and answered a few questions. Tried to be nice, but not too nice. Didn't ask her any questions and didn't really try to build on any conversation. Is this the right way to go about this at the moment?

I also found out recently that W's OM is going to be working with W's best friend's H soon. Interesting development. Not that I should even care.
