Hi, 25 - so good to hear from you...it's been awhile!

Speaking of keeping up with changes, I think I may have shot myself in the foot in terms of her noticing any changes I make.

I have been out of work this year, but took up a new position last week. Something less "corporatey" unlike my last job; it was frighteningly sterile. Anyway, I kept this information from my wife because I knew that she would use this being-out-of-work-again as a strike against me on the child custody front. She's used this as one of the reasons to leave, so I knew she could potentially jump at that opportunity again.

I spoke to my legal counsel and she agreed that I should delay as long as possible.

But today when she came to my house, my wife said this:
W: Would you like me to tell you where I will be placed tomorrow?
M: Sure.
W: [Looks at me and smirks] Since you're out of work again, you can think about moving. Lower cost of living...
M: Yes, I'd like to know where you'll be going. And I quit my job. I've just joined John Muir Medical actually.
W: Riiiggghttt...
