Gabe,

I agree that the AS-IF is really important to our efforts. I know Wes felt I dropped the ball, and I did miss an opportunity, but I think I was able to AS-If w/ W about her interview. Thinking back, W did most of the talking (very enthusiastically at that) and I validated and supported pretty well. W never seemed annoyed or angry, so I assume that I did a good job at pumping her up.

I'll have to maintain that attitude if she in fact moves away to north Denver, which by my calculations would be at least 1.5 hrs. away.

I'll have to present the appearence that I'm okay and everything is and will be all right, even if I don't feel that inside. But, I think that it will be key to making her feel safe and comfortable.
