I DID have to initiate contact with the wife this afternoon about money - just to let her know the state of things because changing my direct deposit and bills over to a NON-joint account hasn't completely taken effect yet, and whatever her motivation she's practically cleaned me out.

The exchange actually went pretty well (unless she comes back with something angrier tonight) - possibly because I didn't actually use the phrase "you cleaned me out."
