    TAMW you are filling out a job application for Party Host, and in the skills section you put "I swim in a mermaid tail". Then the next part asks why, and you try many times to write it out so it doesn't sound like you've just escaped the loony bin!
    TAMW when you go to Job Club the next week, and tell the trainer what jobs you've been applying for and you mention the Party Hosts one, and everyone in the job agency is either staring at you or trying to hide a giggle.

    That awkward moment when you become really excited and almost cry because your dad surprise bought you something. What is it? A wheelchair for moving in a tail

    TAWM when you're giving mermaid rides to your niece in the shallow beach end of another pool (that you plan to make your new splash home), and there is a queue forming up behind her.
    TAWM when parents think you're part of the staff and they take out their cameras, phones etc, before you can stop them, they take pics of you.
    TAWM when a lifeguard tells them you're not part of the pool.

    Now just imagine how awkward it would be if those all happened at the same time! ^

    I really really dread the event that I DO give my niece mermaid rides at the pool. After reading round here of the horror stories of kids jumping on people's backs and pulling their fins... Every time I think of the current house move and then finding a new pool to swim at, its terrifying and my heart won't stop pounding!

    Well I've had a few kids hanging on me and as long as they're gentle it isn't so bad. They just have to know not to tug and only one kid at a time

    That awkward moment when you're helping the sibling and the in-law move into their new apartment and the in-law suggests that you have the movers carry you into the second-floor apartment sitting on the couch in your tail. In-law suggests this very loudly in front of the neighbors AND the movers.

    I weigh roughly 300lbs, so there was no way that could happen. The movers would have died.

    And then, that awkward moment when the sibling explains to the movers that you're a mermaid.

    That awkward moment when your little brother tries to swim in your monofin and looks like he's having a seisure underwater and no gets why you think this is so funny.

    That awkward moment when someone asks you how you don't drown and thinks your crazy when you say "you just wiggle".

    That awkward moment when you have to refer to dolphin kicking as "wiggling" because the last time you said dolphin kick someone asked you if that was a dance move.

    The awkward moment when you tell the real estate lady that you need a deck to paint tails on.

    That awkward moment when everyone at works understands mer lingo.

    That awkward moment when all your parents friends think your mermaiding is cool when you parents are embarrassed for them to know.

    That awkward moment when a coworker offers to be your merguard even though she's terrified of water.

    Those are really funny, Meara...and it looks as though you've been through them all! Here's one I really need to stop doing:

    That awkward moment when you realize that you automatically start holding your breath whenever you see a mermaid video out of a nigh-instinctive desire to "time yourself"!

    Stop saying that, Siren! You sound like a more genuine mermaid every time you speak of yourself!

    TAMW one goes to Profile to check up what one has posted in and doesn't recognize the name at the top...
    TAMW one sits there for 15 mins and thinks "Who the hell is Mermaid Jaffa?? That's not my name!"

    TAMW when one remembers the name change thread...

    TAMW you are craving a swim so much, that the local campus pond (covered in algae and geese) looks very VERY inviting.
    TAMW a dorm-hall neighbor recognizes your NC-Merfest shirt and wants to take a photo because they once hired a mermaid in the area to freak out their coach in the middle of training at the local aquatic center. (said neighbor had one of those 'merpeople freak me out a little' faces on).
    TAMW you are excited about the campus olympic pool . . . but then turns out they are going to be remodeling it for at least a year.
    TAMW you are trying on your tails in the middle of your dorm living-room and your dorm mates decide to open the door for everyone in the hall to see while you are incapacitated by a huge green fish tail. They had a good laugh. I did too XD.

    So far, college rocks!

    That awkward moment you're swimming on the deepest part of the pool (20 ft) with your tail and every kid tries to swim that deep just to say hi, and the moment you come up for air, everyone jumps and starts swimming towards you and touch you

    That's what happens when you swim in a public pool.
