Mild heart attacks...
So as I mentioned in the very first entry I ever wrote in this, I keep two journals: this one and one keeping up a public face.
I was talking to my irl friend when she mentioned a pair of rings she had fallen in love with that fell into the steampunk style. I remembered seeing a thread on one of the communities I watch that was all about such rings. I posted in the thread about the rings, since they weren't up yet, and then I sent the link for the thread to my friend.
I posted using this journal.
I sent the thread to my slash-writer hating friend.
I spent the next several minutes having a nervous breakdown and frantically locking down EVERY ENTRY I HAD EVER WRITTEN, praying she didn't decide to see just who had made that comment about those awesome rings.
Now, a few days later, I've finally calmed down, unlocked everything, and deleted the comment.
I have known this girl for five years. I roomed with her in college. She is one of my best friends, and the only one I keep in regular contact with. It has taken me that long, and that much personal interaction, to get her to start thinking that I might enjoy slash. I'm pretty sure she's suspected for ages now, but there's been no definitive comments made on either side.
