might as well announce your intentions soon
Yeah, I've been trying not to think about that part. I'd been hoping to have something definitely lined up before I made the announcement. Really, I was afraid they could make me change my mind by arguing with me. When I was younger, they actually did do that, and I let them. These days, though, I am a great big woman who doesn't change her mind because her parents tell her to. I don't think they could dissuade me by any means.
Aaaand... it's the right thing to do, to give them fair and calm warning and explain what I intend to do. Perhaps lay out a suggested plan for the near future. And the more I do the right thing, the more I'll be able to refrain from blaming myself if this becomes messy.
