If I said my life was a series of awkward moments would that make me an internet cliche?

“ The institution of marriage is not under attack as a result of the President’s words. Marriage was under attack years ago by men who viewed women as property and children as trophies of sexual prowess. Marriage is under attack by low wages, high incarceration, unfair tax policy, unemployment, and lack of education. Marriage is under attack by clergy who proclaim monogamy yet think nothing of stepping outside the bonds of marriage to have multiple affairs with “preaching groupies.

The One Where I Talk About My Kayaking Trip

I have to sort of check myself every now and again, especially now that I’m looking forward to August. I’m supposed to be going on a white water kayaking camping trip, same as I did last year, but I don’t want to let myself get too excited for it. You see, with my luck, something will come up and then I won’t be able to go or I’ll go and end up being the one to get hurt this year. I don’t like pain, never did, never will.

Last year was amazing, I met so many wonderful people and experienced something I never would have imagined myself doing. It was honestly one of the scariest and most exciting things I’ve ever done, and even though I’m scared I still want to go this year. I have this fear of drowning, I’m scared that my foot’ll get caught on some rocks underwater and I’ll slip and drown in the current. Or that my kayak will flip over again and my helmet’ll come off and I’ll get concussed against the rocks. Are these fears irrational, probably.

I was called bourgeois last year, “you remind me of the French bourgeoisie…you know, with the way you dress and act.” I wanted to slap him, but then I wanted to kiss him because I knew he didn’t mean it offensively. I mean, if that’s how people view me then fine, I don’t really care, I carry myself how I wish to be viewed. Am I off topic? I want to go back this year almost exclusively for the plane ride though; coming back was so turbulent I could have sworn I was going to die…but I didn’t.

I can’t wait to see my friends again, we kept in contact over Facebook but we’re all over the country. I miss them, and that’s why I really hope nothing goes wrong this year.

I want someone who will appreciate and not try to understand my eccentricities. I want them to love me because I am me and not question what I am. I don’t need someone who wants to know everything I am but love me for all that I am not. Do you understand me, future husband? I don’t need you to try and figure me out, I just want you to fight for my complexity and love me because of it.
