Get Married To Cruise, Part 2
To say the least, I’ve gotten a lot of different reactions about how I’m going to get married (and divorced!) just to go on a cruise. Some of you smirked approvingly and called me a genius, others tried to delicately tell me how concerned they were, and a few came to me laughing and insisting that this must be an April Fools joke based on the timing.
The fact of the matter though is that everybody wants to beat the system. You can’t do better than everybody else unless you do things different from everybody else, and this means facing your inhibitions and grabbing each opportunity by the horns without worrying what the rest of the herd thinks. It takes brains to see the better path, but it takes guts to walk it.
Blah, blah, blah.
With that being said, if you were one of the people that came to me and declared that this was just a merry little prank, then… you already know that you were absolutely right about this being an exercise in bullshit, heh. Thanks for not spoiling it for everybody else, and hopefully you enjoyed being in on it after we talked! I’m just sad that we weren’t able have the fake “marriage party” at Speckles Park today, because that would been the perfect way to top it off and let the bag out of the cat, as the great Sir Bill Lemei would say.
The rest of you can feel free start leaving comments and stuff about how you, like, totally knew all along and, like, that’s why at the beginning of the conversation you, like, typed lulz or something once or twice. Happy April Fools Day, everybody!

An earlier comment of mine was deleted due to communism.

It was necessary for great justice.

This sounded like something you and Kendra would figure out, however the fact that there would be a loophole for married people was a little off. For the record if the post was made on April 1st then you wouldn’t have a chance. I guess what you want to hear is you got me.

Of course we wouldn’t have a chance if the post was made then! The brilliant plan was to post that, and then set up a “marriage party” on — you guessed it — April 1st. Would’ve been perfect, but it was still funny.

you had me *so* fooled! You had so eloquently stated your intentions, and had the facts all laid out, but it was a lie! Meh! Oh well, <3 Riva!
