But make it a true surprise. Make it something that I have not even the slightest of inklings about.
Don't tempt me with little details here and there.
That kind of surprise drives me crazy!
For example, let's pretend it's my birthday month (I'm really digging deep into the depths of my imagination for this scenario) and you know what a friend of mine is getting for my birthday. Don't tell me I'm going to love it. Don't tell me it's the greatest ever. Don't tell me it's perfect for me. I don't want to know.
Anything.
At all.
I don't even want to know that someone got me a present until it's literally being put in my possession.
Then you can tell me all about how you knew I would love it.
Just leave the suspense out of it.
This might be why I hate suspenseful movies... I don't want to anticipate. I don't want to wonder what it could possibly be. I just want to know... and I want to know NOW!
Yes this might make me the slightest bit of a brat...
I'm okay with that because it's just a tiny flaw and it's one of the more lovable ones, right?
Oh also... You can take your horrible surprise that will make me hate everything about everything and shove it. I don't even want that in my life in any way.
This has been your daily uplifting message about hope and love brought to you by Ericka...
Okay really I'm not even crabby today. Today was a good day. I just really wanted to share my aversion to surprises and I thought today was the day to do it.
The real kicker?
I absolutely, positively love love love to surprise other people! HA! Isn't that just the most ridiculous thing even. It's probably because when I'm surprising others I am "in the know". And by golly I just love being "in the know". Overload me with information. It's good. I can handle it. In fact, the more info you have on something, the more I want!
Much love
