They know, but you still cannot.

Jan 03, 2007 13:51

I took the internet's advice and gave my parents the bad news before Christmas. Actually, it wasn't a rational decision to let them cope before I arrived; I had become anxious to the point where I could no longer function as a normal human being. I felt that if I didn't tell them, I was going to explode from the pressure of holding in such a ( Read more... )

You've got us all worrying about you!

Ah, but I am good! The phone call last night was unpleasant but I think everything is good. :)

I'm glad. I know there are some tough things to discuss with family, but sometimes they must be done. I've got a big uncomfortable talk with my cousin headed my way. *sigh*

Wait.... Am I being stupid? What did you tell them?

squeakywheel January 3 2007, 23:26:24 UTC

No, no, no, you're not. I almost put a little paragraph at the bottom of the post explaining that I'm still being vague. I could probably make a private post with my news in it but I still haven't told a lot of people, like my sister, so I'm worried about it spreading. I mean, the CEO (!!) of my company found my blog so you just never know who's reading.

I'll explain more soon, though, I promise.

I almost emailed you today to find out how things went and what the issue was.

We're all concerned about you. Put the info in a locked entry. It's secure.

Thanks, Michelle. I'm doing soooo much better now and will be writing probably several entries on the subject very soon. But first, I must inquire about the ever-important space saver vacuum bags!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who read your entry more than once going "Wait...did she tell us?"

squeakywheel January 3 2007, 23:50:26 UTC

:) I will...soon! But not yet and this was the biggest topic of my two-week hiatus, so I HAD to post about it, even if it just makes me a big tease.

clight January 3 2007, 23:51:30 UTC

Exactly! Tease!

*Baited breath*

Good guesses. Those are not to be ruled out.

jenday January 5 2007, 03:42:56 UTC

those were both guesses of mine. but i thought i shouldn't guess, i should just wait for you to tell me, right?

squeakywheel January 5 2007, 19:15:45 UTC

Either way. If someone wants to give odds, we could get some real betting going on here. :P
