Keeping Mum

Something important has popped up. Something very important and very exciting that I want to scream to the whole entire world!



But I come from a very superstitious family. Seriously. From the time I was 6, I learned that stepping on cracks would injure my mother's back, and some much salt was thrown over shoulders we could have seasoned chicken with it.



One of my families favorite one is:'keep good new to yourself, until you are positive it is good news'. So yeah. Um. yeah, I don't want to say too much to threaten the awesomeness of this potential opportunity.



I got news of this yesterday, after a lackluster day of laying around and waiting for it to get dark outside. I checked my email after a nap and....big big news!

I called my mom, who then screamed on the phone and then warned me not to tell anyone about it. Not Marie, not my co-workers, no one. To her, once you let something like this slip out you taint the news because you've put it in someone else's hand. I told you, it's those Carolina superstitions that are born in our genes.


Tomorrow could be the beginning of a very important chain of events that could be the beginning of a new venture here. I'm excited, and nervous and feel really unprepared. I'm happy, and worried, and restless.

So fingers crossed for my very exciting yet all to secret thing tomorrow.
