just another pity party...

I have a friend who I already knew was pregnant, but never confirmed because I knew she didn't want to tell me and I just read the announcement on fb! WTF!?!? Why in the world would she want me to learn that on fb....that feels worse than her just telling me. And she's further along than I guessed. She's due one week after my due date was and already knows the gender. Ugh.

I don't get people who wait so long to share. It almost seems worse to me when it's like, hey! I've been keeping this a secret for 5 months AND it's a boy/girl!
