Family dilemna
So here's the deal guys...I'm planning a trip to Egypt for Christmas break, and I've been so stoked since I found out I was going (going to see the lovely family of Mr. Swissmiss). I told my dad and sister about it and they were happy for me and all that but today I told my mom. While that doesn't *sound* like a big deal, you don't know what she's like. Impossible, in a word. She just ranted and went off on me about how I'm turning my back on my family. Then...my aunt sent me a long ranting email about what an awful person I am. Is this something I should address or let it ride? I made it quite clear I'm not doing this out of spite, but just 'cause it's an awesome opportunity, but they just don't seem to get it.
