That awkward moment at the hairdresser's when he asks you, "What color would you like done?", for a few minutes before I decided, I thought about a dark seaweed green!
That awkward moment when the pro swimmer in the next lane stops to look at you underwater because you've over taken him several times before he hit the other end.
That awkward moment when you've barely got your fins wet and you need to poo!
TAMW you are putting on your tail on a beach at a resort, with an employee there happily wanting to take pictures and asking the process, and you realize after spending a larger than normal amount of time getting into the tail that you have it on backwards.
Ooooo ouch. I guess that offers further support for tails with dorsal fins!
Erm....it has a dorsal fin. :$ lol My husband had folded it down so far that I couldn't tell where it was.Quote:

Same thing happened to me Merin. The lifeguard had blown his whistle just to see me try and get out...I just glared at him while my outmuscled arms tried to pull myself out.
Wow; he was...unprofessional. I've found that when one is too weak or too tired to pull oneself out of the water with pure upper-body strength, a kick of your still-submerged tail fluke gives you all the extra force you need!
TAMW you've lost prescription inserts for your goggles in the pool.
TAMW you tell the life guard lady and she says, "We'll keep an eye out for them but we can't just dive in to look for it"
TAMW you have to think quickly what to do and then ask her to ask the noisy kids if they can help dive for them.
TAMW the kids ask...
"What color is it?"
I reply, "Clear"
"Oh that's gonna be hard"
Another kid, "What shape is it?"
*shows goggles*
Still another kid, "What material is it made of?"
"Glass. Try looking at the deep end too if you can dive."
TAMW 15 mins later, one suddenly feels itchy in the boob valley area (you know that part where the boobs meet, most call it cleavage but since I don't have cleavage, I call it boob valley!).
TAMW one goes to scratch it to find "lost" insert!!
TAMW one has to announce very loudly, "I FOUND IT!" and the girl next to me asks where and I show her, we both have a laugh!
TAMW one thanks all the nice kids and they ask, "where was it?" and another replies, "It fell into her bra! HAHAHAHA!"
That awkward moment when you're explaining your hobbies to a co-worker, and your co-worker asks repeatedly how the mermaid tail works. After the third time she asked, I figured out that my co-worker thought I was having sex in my tail. :jawdrop:
That awkward moment when your fobby Asian coworkers (I apologize for the lack of better wording) calls you fat indirectly by saying you have a tuna belly.
Tuna belly. TUNA BELLY.
Show them how strong you've become, tuna belly and all!Quote:

Ps. My father is 73. It was hilariously awkward.
TAMW you meet a guy at a party and add him on Facebook. Pretty normal except most of your friends on there are a part of the mermaiding community, as are many picture you have on there. So then you have to deal with them not just seeing you as yourself, but as a mermaid too. I guess this is fine, but they won't stop talking about it. It eventually defines you. ugh.
Not as awkward, and yes, if you have a bunch of 'normal' friends, you become the mermaid girl that people talk about, part of the job I think. But b/c I wear my elf ears so often with gigs and I don't bother taking them off for the day, I met a new friend last night and she was surprised my ears were normal, as she thought I had had them altered because the pics she sees/when she has seen me I have them on. Thought it was funny.
TAMW a pair of young boys get kicked out of the lane pool for taking photos underwater.
TAMW you realise they were following you around for a good 15 mins before you even noticed them!
TAMW one considers asking the life guard what they took pictures of and when one finally does, one can see he is lying when he replies, "themselves"
That is so funny you don't even know how hard I am laughing. Did this really happen?Quote:
