Trying to work on the moving out part... Already have the kitty (Gingerbread)!
Miyu, I say it only counts as a First World problem if it's superfluous and unnecessary. If it affects your health in any way, it's a legit problem.
Wesley, I'm glad you are going to let him know how disappointed you are in him. I know it's difficult to just last your cards on the table and yesterday's passive/aggressive treatment has put him on alert. I hate confrontation, but my beau has shown me how much better it is to just come out and say what's bothering him. Cut to the chase and let him have it.
Miyu, can you invest in another pillow as back up and keep it sealed in one of this vacuum storage bags? I've never heard a good roommate story, and they won't learn. I hope you can extract yourself from that living situation soon.
Anahita, I'm so sorry the move is stressing you and your dog! I hope things calm down soon!
And as a flat chested, big butted, middle aged (if I live to 108) woman, I can tell my other pancake sisters DON'T WASTE TIME STRESSING OVER SMALL TITTIES! Seriously! I never even reached a B-cup until I was six months pregnant, and ttery arol don't touch my chest underneath. To top it off, I have very dark coloring and the only reason I wear a bra is so they don't show through my shirt...and for some bizarre reason, people are bothered by pointy nips. You know what? THAT'S NOT MY PROBLEM. One day you might realize, as I did, that fretting over small tits is such a waste of time and energy.
As for my large busted sisters, I can't say I haven't envied your girls, but in the long run, I don't envy you your issues! Some things I've read here I've never even considered!
So that's my bitching/pontificating for today. Love to you all! :mermaid kiss:
miyu... *huge cuddly mermaid hugs*
brb....
*tailslaps your housemates*
better? :D
awww thank you guys so much :3 I stayed up for another three hours last night to have my pillow for bed. Really, my housemates do need some serious tailslaps... with massive heavy art tails >.<
We had been thinking of also getting a backup pillow for me. It sucks having stupid little health issues like this. I don't like complaining about it because it makes me feel like a whiner when there are so many bigger problems out there. Hopefully we can move out in a few months if my mertender gets more work (and maybe if I make more sales).
And the thrilling conclusion: I scolded him like a child. He apologized very very profusely and sincerely. I explained why I am upset and he told me that wasn't his intention but that he is sorry anyways. He did everything right and we talked about life for a while. I didn't just salvage the friendship I think I made it stronger.

That's fantastic Wesley! I'm glad it went so well. You got a stronger friendship, and you taught him the error of his ways ;)
Awesome news, Wesley!
that's great to hear wesley!
I went to San Antonio this weekend for a paranormal convention.
I sold one pendant. There was hardly anyone there.
Unfortunately, it was competing with Alamo City Comic Con just down the street.
Wasted time and money.
Thanks all! And I'm sorry Aurelia that sucks

I just got told about the mermaid workshop today. AGAIN. T_T by my goddamn physio of all people!
*tableflip*
I just looked on Mertailor's Facebook page... and there's a tail painted very very similarly to my Merbellas tail -__- I know it could just be a coincidence, but I cant help feeling the client may have taken 'inspiration' from my tail. And I know there's nothing I can do about it, but it sucks... My Merbellas tail is my calling card, people know me by it. Its a very personal thing.
Sigh.
Oh wow, that tail is pretty similar. There's no gold or yellow on the end of the fluke in the photo at least...I love your tail SO much, and at least it's probably going to a different place entirely.
I honestly do not see them as similar because I didn't think of you when I saw that tail on his page. Sure, both have blue and pink but that's pretty much about it.
Do not take it personal. It's just a coincidence.
From a distance, to the untrained tail-eye (lol), they will look almost identical. That bothers me. I'm not taking it personally: I did say I know its probably a coincidence, but its still not fun when you see a colour-scheme you identify with (and clients identify me with) being used on another tail. For us, we can see the differences, but for someone who is just searching the net or whatever all they will see will be the pink fluke and the blue tail.
Anyway, I just needed to vent.
Mine is prettier. haha.
Just like your legs. You just see the tail, but everybody else sees you in the tail and you make the difference.
Close, simular, looks like, but not you.
I know how that feels Mizuko. Not with tails but my custom designed Harp. An Instrument, (and I include tail when I say this) Is a tool that enables an artist to express themselves at a soul level.Quote:

After my harp came out the maker had requests based on my harp. It bugged me at first. But in all honesty, If I seen a harp like it I would want it too!!!
It's just the way it goes unfortunately when something is created that resonates and ignites and inspires other people. Things of beauty have this affect.
Maybe try to think of it this way Mizuko.. Take it as a HUGE COMPLIMENT! People love your tail! And so much it has inspired them to want similar.
I know it doesn't take away the frustration that your "Instrument" is something that is unique to you and is how you are identified.. This is the downer of the situation.
But it does help to look at it from the angle of inspiration. I hope that settles the sting even just a little for you xx
No denying your tail is stunning! :)

That is a gorgeous harp!
If it is coincidence, it's a pretty strong one. It looks like someone wanted a tail just like yours and got a knock-off. Still, yours does look much nicer.Quote:

I saw that pic of the tail and immediately thought of you!Quote:
