the coconut wireless


Ah, Hawaii. We all joke about the "coconut wireless" -- the grapevine on steroids that pretty much guarantees that any piece of news (be it true or not!) will make it around the island and back again before the words "I'm pregnant" escape my lips.

Now, tell someone from my hometown the news and you can be sure that everyone from 16 Acres to Rec 4 will hear about it in a matter of days.

Case in point. A friend of mine told me that her friend (a girl I'm acquainted with but not really friends with) asked her if it was true that I was pregnant. How did she hear the news? She works with my other good friend's (whom I did share the news with) sister's husband. Hahaha!

And that's the coconut wireless for ya. ;)
