Surprises are not my Friend
Yes, you heard that right. I’m
not good with surprises even those that aren’t for me. I’ve heard people say,
“I love surprise”. To those people I say, “Shut up!” Just recently, Bronwyn and
I had this conversation:
Bronwyn: My
family says they have a surprise for my birthday. It’s got to be something big
because they all went in together.
Me:
What do you think it is? (What I’m thinking: A surprise! I must know
immediately or it’s going to drive me crazy.)
Bronwyn: No
clue.
Me:….(Well
shit)
A lifetime goes by before she
tells me what it is. And I want to add something here. Bronwyn might be on the
other side of the world from me but distance isn’t an obstacle for either one
of us. Neither is the 14 hour time difference. We find a way to talk at least 4
times a week, usually more than that. We also skype on a regular basis.
But I digress. It did seem
like sssooooo long before she finally told me what the surprise was. (It was
probably just a week or two). I get this picture, when I wake up, of a card
type thing that says Bronwyn is going on a trip. By the time I finally know,
I’m as excited as she is and I’m making weird faces at the computer screen. I
demanded pictures almost immediately.
My response to any surprise
whether for me or someone else, is why I dislike Christmas. Even when I’m the
one giving a surprise, especially to my children, I just cannot do it.
It always goes something like
this:
Me: I
got you something
The
Kidlet:
What?
Me:
Not gonna tell you. You’re gonna have to wait. Five minutes later (By this time
I’m holding my breath with pent up anxiety/excitement): Okay, it’s that
game/xbox/computer/pretty dress/etc you’ve been wanting.
I think you get my point.
Anyone else have this problem with surprises? Or am I the only weirdo in the
world.
Seriously though, Bronwyn, I
enjoyed pictures from your trip very much. Thank you for satisfying my need to
live vicariously through you. And I’m so very glad you had a good time. Happy
Birthday!

Contemporary Action Romance
Love
and danger aren’t supposed to go hand in hand.
Elijah wants to go back to his
old life. He never realized just how well his mother kept the rest of his crazy
family out of his life until she was gone. His extended family has descended on
him like the plague, and now he’s in some deep trouble—trouble he can’t get out
of, no matter how hard he tries.
Crash Morgan is the guy his
boss sends when someone needs to get assassinated. Sometimes the best thing for
society is to eliminate the worst that humanity has to offer, and Crash is very
good at doing that. When he’s sent to interrogate Elijah Spade, he’s a bit out
of his element. Talking to the suspect isn’t exactly where he excels. Even
worse, Crash feels protective of Elijah.
