As I mentioned in a previous post, I never told my parents
that I was moving to San Francisco from Ithaca, NY. In fact, they were
drooling at the prospect of me being forced to move back into their house while I continued the job search.
I however, had other plans.
So how does one finally break the news to their parents that they are 4,000 miles away from where they expected them to be? A nicely crafted email of course!
This is how it all went down:

Dear Mom & Dad,

And I thought you were going to make the situation worse by telling them over the phone. Everyone knows email > phone.

Haha, this is hilarious.
Perhaps you can place some google ads alongside your blog and make some extra dough.
