Bridal Shower

in Wedding Party
So I need some guidance on what to do or what not to do... 

I have 2 MOH and 2 BM. The 2 MOH are my sisters. I am getting married in April 2011 we just hit our 5 month mark! My sisters have not mentioned anything to me about a bridal shower... I was thinking about discussing a date with them because I live in Phoenix and will marry in Phoenix but all my guests and family live in California, so the shower will be in California. I need to request time off of work and give all the guests advanced notice. I am kinda scared to bring it up because I don't want them to get upset with me for asking. 

Today my best friend who is one of the BM sent me a text saying that she e-mailed both of my sisters a month ago about my shower and bachelorette party and that they never responded.. She wanted to know if I have talked to them about it yet. 

What do I do? I had read on here a couple months ago that we (brides to be) should not expect a shower so not to ask about it but I don't know what to tell people who are asking me.... do I just tell them to talk to my sisters? I also read that the MOH don't have to throw the shower that anyone can do it... I don't know what to do.... Do I ask them if they were planning on giving me one or just leave it alone?

    Tell them what I told people before I found out someone was throwing me a shower: "I haven't heard anything about one yet."

    People are probably asking out of general interest; asking a bride how wedding planning is going or when her shower is is kind of like asking a non-bride how the weather is, etc.  Chit-chat.  Until you're less than three months from the wedding, no one's probably working on it yet or thinking about it yet.  I'm helping plan the bach party for my BFF (I'm her BM) and the three of us just decided to table it until June (wedding's in Sept.) because we have too many other things going on that are more immediate.
