What the…

You may be wondering, and rightfully so, what the fuck is going on around here?

Well it all happened in a panic, and thankfully, both harmlessly and needlessly.

My brother e-mailed me the other day. We were going to his house for Thanksgiving and I was making a pie and blah blah blah. And “what kind of whiskey do you like?” And “I searched the internet but I couldn’t find it.”

Gulp. What the…

Of course the first thing I thought of was that he found my blog and he was reading it and… OMG and aaaargh!! So what did I do? I almost just deleted everything, which I fortunately didn’t do… and then I was worried about the google cache so I put up a goodbye instead.

But at this point I was thinking it might really be goodbye… if the jig was up and the cat was out of the bag, I was going to have to burn my… oh I don’t know, I’ve run out of sayings.

Well fast forward to Thursday and I kind of innocently asked him about searching for me on the Internet. “Well I thought you put your Ireland pictures on your web site and I couldn’t remember which distillery you went to. But then I asked around and Dad said it was Jameson. And he gives me this bottle of Jameson for my birthday, which was the day before.

Well what a nice thing, and thank God I had just jumped to conclusions… and that I hadn’t done something totally stupid like just delete everything!

So isn’t this a good lesson… family doesn’t suck so much after all… and the shocking OMG’s aren’t always what your worst fears tell you they are!

And here I am, back from what I thought was the dead. So did you miss me? :)

Oh… and I almost forgot… today is in fact my bloggaversary!!
