Forgot to add this part of the conversation:

W: Sorry we couldn't get the divorce papers signed right now. [have to wait until six months after papers are signed by judge]

M: It's fine. Gotta do what the courts tell us, you know.

Not sure why I felt compelled to add this. Just felt it might be important to mention.

Us: mid-20s
T: 5.5 yrs
M: 2 yrs
S + OM: 6/21/11
Legally S'd: 9/9/11

In this life, you have a limited amount of mental currency. You get what you pay for, so spend it wisely.

So it goes. --Kurt Vonnegut
