    Uhhhh, those silly habits of mine aren't being directed at anyone here. So please don't take it personally.

    So far, we actually have more votes for keeping our meets at NRH Centre this time around, but that can be for one of the two meets this month. The second being the runner-up, which is Lake Lewisville.

    I imagine it is only a few dollars but their website is failing me.

    I may not be going to any more meets, until I can get another tail. I'm absolutely crushed right now.

    You do not have to have a tail to come to the meets doll. There are a bunch of us that have extra monofins that you can use and honestly you can slip on my finfun and swim around in that if you wanted to. It's falls off me so until I fix it I'm sure you can fit in it! I don't want anyone to feel like they must have a tail at these meets because you don't have to have one! If you don't want to go because you feel bad without a tail I completely understand.

    Wait, West Irving Aquatic Center allows tails? I was there last Friday but didn't think to ask because I figured like most pools these days they wouldn't allow it. WIAC is just a few miles from my mom's house.

    I've been there a few times with my tail, but I went when it was very crowded so I stayed in the shallow area or the lap lanes. I was afraid if I swam in the main pool area I'd hit someone with my big ol' merfin. If no one is lap swimming they open the lap pool to public swim, but they cleared it for me when I asked to lap swim in my tail. I don't think it would be a good place for a big meet unless we reserved time just for us, but for a few mers it would be fine. Then again I haven't been there since last summer so the rules might have changed since then.

    Heck, I'd be happy just to sit in the shallows flopping around for all the kids and parents to ooooo & ahhhh at.

    MEET UPDATE!

    *Today's meet is at 2pm at NRH Centre!
    *Tomorrow's meet is at 11am at Lake Lewisville!

    No FB event this time. I've been sick all week since my trip last weekend. But the votes are in and those are the venues that our pod has chosen!

    See you all there!

    Ahhh I'm so exicted for today! I got in super late from work last night so I was going to sleep in this morning, but I woke up early and was too excited to go stay in bed. I'm still going to leave for NRH early since I'm planning on spending as much of the day swimming as I can stand, but the anticipation is killing me. Looking forward to meeting everyone!

    Wish I could go to both meets, but the more days I take off from work the less money for the tail fund. Le sigh...
