Prompt
The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is check outside to see
if anyone is passed out on my lawn. I live next to a frat house, so this is
a regular occurrence.

Literally. They have no shame. [Here are nine more things you should know
about me.] 3. I have never pooped at a gas station (and probably never will,
because I refuse to pay $6 for a cup of coffee...even if they were roasting
the beans with their bare hands...a lot). I try to use public restrooms at
gas stations when I can, because they are generally cleaner and just usually
very busy. 4. I’ve been drunk in 17 states and 7 countries. I love
traveling...a lot. 5. I’ve hit a deer and I’ve flipped over a car (not at
the same time). 6. I hate mushrooms and I’m vegetarian... but not for
cultural reasons. When I’m inebriated I want nothing more than to have a
plate of red, heart-shaped things for dessert. 7. I’ve been in a room with
1,000 women and we’ve talked about everything from N’SYNC to soap operas.
I’ve come to absolutely love my girlfriends as well as become a healthier
person for it...truly. 8. My favorite color is brown. 9. I’ve kissed at
least two strangers in my lifetime. 10. I bought my first purse at
Target...two years ago. 11. I’m fluent in Korean. I lived in Korea for 10
months and I can actually speak it. 12. I love men...but I love women just
as much. I am mostly single, because I’m not sure what I...
Conclusion
...really want out of a relationship. Will anyone truly want me if they know
all these personal things about me? It has taken a long time for society to
accept homosexuality, and we are nowhere near out of the woods yet.
Omnisexuality, which is how I identify, is so much harder. Even gay people
don’t accept us. They think that we should just get off the fence, and
decide already. Of course, that’s not how it works, and they’re being just
as ignorant as people have always been, but I’ll keep trying to change their
minds. The frat guys are actually pretty cool. The fact that they pass out
on my lawn has nothing to do with me, it’s just proximity. My older brother
is a lawyer, and he says this could turn into a problem, though. If one of
them were to end up dead, or something, I could be liable for the damages,
even though I don’t even know the guy, and I didn’t do anything wrong. He
tells me I should invest in a front yard fence, but nobody has those
anymore, and it’s not exactly on brand for me. Besides, I would rather they
end up sleeping on my lawn than trying to drive home after the party. Still,
I feel I should do something, but I don’t want to seem elitist, or anything.
People think that about me when I say I don’t eat meat anymore. I’m probably
overthinking all of this, and I should just stick to my own problems, and
worry about who I’m going to take as my date to my cousin’s wedding. There’s
this guy I really like, and I think he would be interested, but there are
those in my family who do not know about me, and positively would not
approve. Should I ignore them, and take the guy anyway, or should I make
sure the night doesn’t end up about me, and let my cousin have her special
day? Everyone else gets to take whoever they want, though. Why should I
pretend to be someone I’m not? Perhaps these situations are exactly when we
should start expecting people to learn to be better.
