That Awkward Moment When: Mermaid Edtion!

[Mermaid Celissa]

- That awkward moment when you bring your tail to a public 4th of July party and a little four-year-old boy wants you to carry him piggyback around the pool and you comply.

- That awkward moment when a girl at the beach asks you if you put sparkly stickers on your tail and you say yes, then she asks you "What kind? Hello Kitty? I love Hello Kitty."

- That awkward moment when you say goodbye to said girl and you have to wait for her to get all the way down the beach before you can take off your tail so it doesn't ruin the magic.

- That awkward moment when you hide your tail under a boogie board because of said magic-ruining situation.

- That awkward moment when you have your tail at your birthday party, and as you're putting it on, someone says, "WHAT'S THAT?!" like they can't tell it's a tail :P

When someone comes over to your house unexpectedly and your desk looks like this is kind of awkward... (I apologize for the size--I'm going to switch my camera's settings right now, actually)


(But on a quick note, I'm quite proud of the one on the left)

That is awesome! lol So many tail drawings!!

[MerEmma]

If only it was a lot!! That's not even a tenth of the scrap papers I've thrown away after destroying them with tails, lol. I tend to draw them when my computer is frozen (see also:very often) and...I have a lot of them! xD I've gotten better but I still can't get the fluke shapes right. =P

That awkward moment when you get the job and your future coworkers haven't forgotten about that tail. They're all fathers.
