Things That Make Rachel Smile

I ventured downtown to the pay a visit to mermaid created by  IIlse Valfre. She adorned the walls with her images. She even appeared on backpacks, hats and carried her own Shell Phone case. Little neophyte Sirens surrounded her wearing metallic stars on their cheeks as part of the aquatic ritual. A DJ kept tails flapping while we stood in lines to shoot our Valfre logo green screen   pictures and eat seafood inspired cupcakes. I was glad that Gabi Nelson, Mermaid Marketing Ambassador was on hand to get to the bottom of the ocean and discuss what this was all about before I began my ascent into Mermaidism.

Lunge, squat, jump. I practiced micromanaging my time this morning at the Literati Cafe’. I exercised on the patio while my order was cooking in the nearby kitchen (hard work deserves an instantaneous reward). I finished my last stretch just in time to sit down and enjoy my piping hot french toast with blueberries (What? There was fruit involved so it can’t be all that bad?).

Next challenge, how to drive a car while doing sit-ups...any ideas?

It was Poseidon’s fault. He whispered in my ear whilst I was dreaming. I awoke, my body leading me down to the beach to meet my fate. I took my last swing ride, celebrating my final moments of independence before walking to the shore where he awaited me. He got down on his magnificent knee and subsequently presented me with a bouquet of flowers so bright that they blinded me momentarily. I thrust the bouquet back at him. “No, I cannot marry thee great ruler of the sea for it is summer and it is my time to be free”. A great tear fell from his eye creating a whirlpool in the sea. “Perhaps come fall my wild spirit will wane and we shall be together”. He conceded and I was free to return to my swing and dream about the intoxicating possibilities of the summer months to come.
