Thanks! Once they get here I'll post some pictures.

You can expect a more detail post here later but I want to say this. I got to swim with the wonder Mermaid Celeste as the spring. She is one of most genuinely nicest person I got to meet. I need sleep so sorry for the short post.

I'm going to New York City in two weeks!!!! :dances:
My friend offered me an invitation to go and i took it (because cabin fever sucks) and I've always wanted to go. Friend is headed down there for music lessons and it's a two day stay before we drive back home to Canada.
Im looking for airbnb places but i recalled that there might be some mers here from New York if anyone wants to offer a place to stay the night to help out this cheap ass mer and her broke friend I'll love you forever. Also i'd really love to swim with somebody.

I just had a orientation for an aquarium I'd like to volunteer at (not as a mermaid yet). At the end of it, this one girl turns to me and says she loves my Finfolk sweater and loves their work. So I started geeking out with her about mermaids and we even got her friend into it who was like 'what? people do this for a living? this is a real thing?' It was just part of a really good today-er yesterday xD
It's nice to finally have a full happy day despite how long it was (6am until 12am next day plus since I'm still up and need to be back up at 6am again)
I really love this community. I'd love to hug you all

Saturday, I came home from getting the second layer of shading done on a tattoo I got to cover an old one, and it was started in November, glad to have it finished. I told my husband the good news that the artist (who usually does incredible, custom, intricate and detailed work) will do a small, simple one for someone who's already a client. This means that I can get my Man from Atlantis symbol tattoo, one I've been wanting for years, in a few months. Right now, I've more important things to spend money on. But I don't want to go to just anyone, because a simple tattoo could still be so easily screwed up.
And yesterday was my birthday, and my husband felt bad for having to work, be on call at home, and not be able to take me out for dinner or such. So he starts looking for a pen, and get a marker from my daughter, then asks for my wrist. I reluctantly, but curiously, allowed him to draw on me. lol He drew the symbol where I want the tattoo. And then handed me the money for the tattoo (with his apologies that it wasn't in gift form). <3 Happy dance, now I just have to make the appt, and then my super aquatic nerdery will be on my wrist for all to see.
The spiral design? I love that show! Victor Buono as Dr Schubert was the the ultimate antagonist!

Yes, that's the one! I'm getting it on the inside of my left wrist. I was going to get it in teal, but the teal on my ankle did not hold as well as I'd like, so I'm going to get it in black, and that will match the symbol on his trunks, anyway.
I love Dr. Schubert, too. He's the perfect mix of camp and pompous intellect. I've got the DVD sets of the tv movies and series, and I rewatch it through a few times a year. I was my daughter's age (7) when I first saw and fell in love with it. He's why I started swimming in a way that in the mer world people call a dolphin kick.
I just have to make the appt, and my artist books three months out- she's so good and in demand- so it'll be a little while, but once it's done I will surely post a pic here, because I'll be stoked.
I got the volunteership for the aquarium I applied for
I signed up for trainings and one of the first things I'll be doing is helping with kids birthday parties to get some two-legged experience with them before trying them in a tail
Plus they're building a new coral tank and its huge! And all I could think of was whether or not I could fit in it as a mermaid
Just waiting for the internship though, didn't feel too good about that interview but we'll see.
Side non-mermaid note, I finally managed four rounds of my work out straight through -no stretch breaks!
I hope everyone else has a good week ^^ <3
Yay!

Living with better health for the past few months has been nothing short of amazing.
Solving health mysteries- nothing like it. When one has to deal with PTSD and other things that affect the mental so strongly, ya really don't need physical crap to go with it. Being physically healthier has meant it's easier to deal with the other stuff I can't just fix with a blood test and changing some things.
Also happy about the weather getting warm enough for me to use the pool.... a cold water mer, I am not.
Also this. This makes me happy. That swimming through the air looks soooo fun!
That's fantastic!

I had an awesome dream last night where I got this weird silicone tail, and somehow it din't have a monofin - it was actually hard silicone in the tail and it was super cool. I remember I got it from somewhere, but I can't remember. It was either red or purple, I can't remember which. I tried putting it on in a swimming pool, even though my family doesn't have one, and it was awesome. I could actually feel what it's like to swim in a monofin or tail. All I was able to do was tread water upright, but I couldn't because every time I tried I would be flopping everywhere up and down, in the pool. And the best part was that once my mom found out, I was able to actually explain it to her.
How one of my friends was into mermaids and other fantasy stuff, and got me hooked watching H20, and let me borrow one of her old tails, etc. And she actually understood, and was okay with it. I doubt that's going to happen in real life any time soon, I'm afraid to even skirt the topic. I also did a reality check, though I didn't go lucid.

Finally got my iTunes account to work and purchased the new Beauty and the Beast album cause it's only $6.99
Anyone else seen it yet? I'm just loving the Evermore song <3
I'm at my 37 weeks pregnant mark, now the baby may safely be born at home, yay
We also finally picked out names for the baby, so we are all ready

Congratulations!! Such a wonderfully exciting time! <3
My parents let me set up a GoFundMe account so I can fundraise to get my first silicone tail! I can't tell you how long I've waited for this moment! I want to get a silicone tail to bring happiness into children's faces and educate people about the beauty of the ocean

If you could donate, it would mean the world to me!

My husband told me today that he wants to take me snorkeling on Saturday!
We've been having a hard time lately. It seems we never get to spend anytime together anymore whenever we do he's usually being an a**hole and not wanting to talk to me refusing to go anywhere ect. We usually just spend all weekends with him playing video games or watching tv.
Im so excited I finally get to spend some time with him alone and away from the f-ing house.
I'm out of my funk and I'm getting more and more inspired for my silicone tail! I slept over at my best friend's house and we are going to go out and explore Old/Historic Folsom today! More good news is i got a huge pay check and I can buy some more resin for my scale molds!

Yay!
