:( I feel the same way. I don't know anyone in my area or even in the same state that are mermaids.

I can't wait to see the looks on everyone's faces when I get my tail and swim with it in Kent State's pool. Greek life is BIG there. Can you imagine a mermaid in the middle of that mess? :rotfl::jester:

Totally, I'm an undergrad in college and people can go crazy over that kind of stuff. Especially the boys haha Have you ordered a tail yet? Or are you in the process of making one?

I am unfortunately in the "gotta be responsible and wait for the financial aid refund" boat before I order anything. I'm an artist, but don't trust my tail making abilities yet. :p

Oh, that's understandable. What kind of tail are you looking for?

I live in PA, but near Philadelphia, so not exactly nearby. I did visit Pittsburgh last summer, though, so I've been in the area.

I want a realistic-looking tail that's colorful, with big flukes, and a monofin that can handle riptides. My dream is Raven's basic tail with a competitor monofin, but stories of her being very difficult to get ahold of, waiting lists and periods of non-reception of orders have been discouraging ><

I model in Pitt sometimes, JRU!

That's cool, I've never really heard anything about raven until I joined mernetwork. I hope you are able to get the tail you want! It sucks waiting and just dreaming about what it will be like.

I live in Cincinnati! And I don't have a tail yet but I'm working on either a painted or a sequin tail. Just gotta wait for funds. :)

That's the story of our lives: waiting for funds. I really don't care how or from whom I get my tail. I'm about at the point where I'm ready to proposition random hobby tail makers. Just as long as the tail is what I want.

If you want to try to make some quick cash and are healthy and don't mind driving to cincinnati you could try Medpace (http://www.medpace.com/WhatWeDo/ClinicalPharmacology/StudyParticipants/Default.aspx). I did a month long study with them and made $1,125 to help pay rent. The one you would want would be one of their weeklong overnight things where you just stay there for a week and can make up to about $2,000. That should pay for a decent tail.

Medpace just offered me $4100 for an arthritis study that I don't need to have arthritis for. There are injections and blood drawing involved, but I'm willing to go through that for that much!

Yeah I have to wait 30 days before I can do another study. That much money would definitely get you a really nice tail by raven I bet.
