Fake marriage

From a person who used to do this and thought it was cute or endearing, please do not pretend to be married. Sometimes it leads to a real divorce, trust me. When I say pretend, I mean: Writing Mr. & Mrs. Whatever, this is my husband/wife, Or use the last name of your significant other for no real legal reason. I have seen quite a few people get involved in this type of behavior, especially teenagers who flaunt the fake marriage like it is some sort of fad; it is wrong. Now whatever you do in private is private but when you publicly do this in any sort of media, document or social gathering, it can potentially bite you in the ass later. Especially if your break-up is an ugly one and revenge is sought.

So kiddos, don’t do adult things if you don’t want the adult responsibilities and (expensive) consequences that come with it.

Thank you for the birthday wishes from friends and family online and offline. After having a 24 hour cold the day before, that caused me to cough up things that resembled something from my fifth grade science project, I regained my health and energy and spent my birthday with people I love. There was ice cream cake, bubbly, fast food, and Baroque to Bauhaus (art exhibit); a happy birthday indeed.

I am now the same age as the teacher who had a crush on me in high school, weird.
