Well, we'll assume it is okay to go ahead and announce some news of a personal nature:
- I am going to be an uncle. Yup. It seems pretty much confirmed. A born on date is to be determined in the near future. It's difficult to wrap my brain around being an uncle. It's even more difficult knowing who the daddy is. My parents' reaction, with whom sis still lives, is less than receptive. The react is reasonable on their end to say the least. This situation is ripe with potential baby-momma-drama. I'm sad to say that about my younger sibling, but it is true. Also, selfish or not, this is a perfect time to take a hiatus from too much interaction with the fam. I can't seem to not express my opinion when around them. Supposedly, I start "preaching." Thank God for good friends, people I can actually help, Netflix, and a constant reminder the drama is not mine. Oh, and as one friend put it, I have nine months (give or take) to prepare to be the best damn uncle in the world if the situation allows. Hrmph.
