Retracted

5/23/2012 The Charmer 3 Comments

I don't know if anyone on this blog has ever retracted a post before, but I just did.

I would like it to be known that I did, in fact, post on Tuesday, which (for some reason) I've been having issues doing recently. So, even with a quiz and a test and a 3-hour rehearsal I made sure to remember you, our wonderful readers. I was so proud of myself! :)

Annnnd then I ended up retracting my post so most of you probably didn't even get a chance to read it. Sorry.


Why did I retract it?

1. The post was partially written out of spite. I once made a promise to myself that I would never post something written in a fit of rage...and even though I wasn't raging, I realized that I was in a bit of a foul mood when I wrote the post. As a result, it was quite hurtful to someone I care very much about it.

2. I realized that revealing all of my innermost feelings in an effort to entertain readers isn't worth harming a relationship. Sure, I love a good story, but sometimes I forget that there are living, feeling people behind my stories. And Mr. Director isn't just a character; he is a living person with very real feelings. It's true, "Mr. Director" reads the blog....but so does _________, the real Mr. Director. And it's not fair to just use him as a good storyline

3. Our dear Mr. Director himself left a...less-than-pleasant comment, bless his heart. And rather than get everybody riled up over it, I just decided to take it down.

Anyways, the post really bothered him and it was more important to me to salvage our friendship (i.e., our awkwardly-not-dating-but-not-being-sure-how-to-be-just-friends-relationship) than to leave the post up.

So those of you who read it...lucky you! Those of you who didn't...I'm sure you're dying to know what it was about and you're imagining all sorts of terrible things in your head. Hahahahaha.

I will, however, fill you in on the bit of the post that was dedicated to the mission developments:

I FAILED my pre-mission dental exam. CURSED CAVITIES! Turns out my lovely smile was hiding some malicious black holes. I have not one, but TWO cavities. Now the question is whether or not the cavities need to be filled before I can actually submit my papers and get my call. My bishop said he didn't think it would be a problem, but everyone else I've talked to has said it will be. Well, my bishop is forwarding the papers onto the stake president, so I guess we'll see what he says.

And....that's the news in Charmerland! It's been an exhausting day. Peace out.

xoxo,

Oh, and a word of advice: If you ever write on an anonymous dating blog, GO TO ANY PRECAUTIONS NECESSARY TO MAKE SURE THOSE CLOSE TO YOU DON'T FIND OUT ABOUT IT. (Except your mother, if it tends to be the only way she can keep up with your life)
