Words from a wise DBer use to say that when a WAW (who is having an A) is in an "up" mood....that's not good b/c it means her A with OM is hotter than ever. OTOH, if she is very "down" then that's good b/c things aren't going so well in the A.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
