Wow, congrats heap! That sounds promising... a good start, for sure. Your H is going to have to get used to talking with you like this. I sense that he doesn't like "his world" rocked too much.
I think that giving him these "advanced warnings" is good... it gives him time to think about what you've said without having to respond immediately. Then, when you do get around to Wednesday or Friday, he'll have something to say. See how he acts on Wed & Fri. I hope that he doesn't make excuses to avoid you now that you've told him which days you'll be expecting to talk.
