It was really funny cause she is usually the most accepting person on earth, but this time she was like "You must be joking." I got kinda scared for a second. So i was freaking out at my computer thinking....oh god did i just tell the wrong person....and then she was like, no....i thought you were literally joking, you always like to mess with me. Then I told her no.....im kindaaaa serious. So THEN she was all supportive. So Yay! One down, the world to go!
Congratulations! That's the funny thing about "are you joking/kidding"... it can be used in so many contexts.
