		<description><![CDATA[Oh, and Joy, don&#039;t feel bad. My own family didn&#039;t know Jeremy was coming for Christmas--or that there even really was much of a Jermey at all, if that makes sense--until Thanksgiving. I on the other hand had known for at least a  month beforehand that he&#039;d be here. I had the hardest time telling them, and for no good reason. I think I thought they&#039;d be shocked and rather scandalized to find out I&#039;m actually human and I like boys (real ones, who sometimes like me back). :o) It has done irreparable damage to my stone-cold ice queen image that has taken 24+ years to cultivate in their eyes, but...I guess that&#039;s okay; they&#039;ll get used to it, anyway ;o) 

And thanks for the sympathy, Stephen, and HELLO KATHERINE!!! :o)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amy! I am so glad you posted!!! At least ONE of the Oliver family members reads my blog ;o) Actually I laughed so hard last night when Jeremy told me he randomly sat down and was like, &quot;I think I should look at Jen&#039;s blog, even though i ahven&#039;t in about 3 months or so,&quot; right after I post something about him and how he never reads it. Funny. Good thing I didn&#039;t say anything bad ;o)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As someone currently in a long-distance relationship (although thankfully, not &lt;i&gt;nearly&lt;/i&gt; as long as yours!), spending time with each other in person just can&#039;t compare with the phone (although it&#039;s the best &quot;surrogate&quot; out there!)...enjoy your time together (not that you won&#039;t)!]]></description>
