 What I did not learn from summer camp
Not sure why I remembered this after all these years or I am not sure why
I had not thought of this in years but....
About two weeks after I met NQRW I had a long weekend  booked at this place in the Southern part of New England called Club GetAway.
It was advertised as a place to meet singles and I had booked it before I met her and if I am not mistaken it was about 200$ for two days two nights.
The more I think about it the more I think that this weekend made me run when I should have walked in terms of NQRW.
The place reminded me of what Summer camp looked like in a
Charlie Brown movie complete w/ a lake, cabins that you shared with other people of the same sex and a big campfire.

First of all it was not all singles, and that made meeting people hard as you had no idea who was attached and un-attached.

Second I was very nerdy then...ok I can hear the "THEN???" from the thoughts community.  This meant I really never clicked in. I ended up hanging around with this young couple that was newly married and came there as a place to get out of the city.

Third there were few really good activities to meet and get to know people.  Yes it is great to learn massage and had I met someone before that and said lets try this it might have been great, but the feel of a woman massging you as if you are radioactive(and I do not blame her given we had just met two minutes before) and then squirming at the idea of me touching her does little for the ole confidence.    

So what did I get for my effort?
Little but I tried and that was OK
I did learn that I can not water ski on top of the fact I can not snow ski that I already knew.
I mean you are looking at someone that has tried out for most game shows and even tried out for LOVE CONECTION when it came to NYC one year.

But I think that I took away from that that I needed to grab NQRW and hold on as she was the last bus out of singlehood.  And as you do when you do hurry I made a mistake and got on the wrong bus.  I saw her as a way out and did not really make sure that way out was the way I needed to go.

Again I am not sure why I thought of this past that it was in July that this all happened.

Cheb has said to me that she married her ex because she was afraid no one else would want her! So I guess she kinda did the same...got on the bus rather than risk the possiblity of there being no more 'buses' heading her way...oh, and radioactive? man that cracked me up, lol xxxx

WK - I've been to Club Getaway 3 times in the past 10 or so years! It's fun - I've always gone on singles-only weekend. And, I would have befriended you if we were there on the same weekend! I am always kind to nerds..
