Sam,

Thanks for stopping by. I really appreciate the input. Very helpful comments. You are right...I was getting the cart way in front of the horse. Nothing is going to happen too quickly. And it is very easy to justify why I should interact more. I need brakes on my brain.

You know...I don't know about how long I have. She hasn't filled out her paperwork. So it might not even get to that point. I'm actually not real scared of divorce. It isn't any different than what I have now, except there is a piece of paper saying I'm no longer married. If she does get the divorce rolling though it will be quick. We've agreed on all the details and have no kids together. It really could sail through quickly. At this point I've told her several times that should the papers come I won't try to drag it out...I'll figure that's what she thinks is best. Which is true...I've accepted that possibility.

Anyway, your post does help me. I was debating flying to see a friend this weekend and then last night and today I thought I should stay here and see if my wife and kids wanted to catch a movie. Now I'm thinking I should go away this weekend. It will do me good to see an old friend.

Hope
