A request from my daughter...

This is a story about three little princess mermaids.

The oldest mermaid was named Angel, and the middle mermaid was named Katie-Bug. Finally, the youngest mermaid was Ali-Boobie. All three princess mermaids wished to grow up to be the queen of all Mermaidia, in the Land of Seashellia.

A problem arose one day when the three sister mermaids discovered that there was a rule against having more than one queen. The very same day, their father, King Bojo, was kidnapped by the evil underlord, Hellatian.

The princesses looked through out all of the land to find their father, but it was no use.

Quietly a snail snuck upon them and told them how to get their father back. The snail said, "If the three of you can find a common bond, then your father will be left in the nearest pond."

The three sisters were puzzled.

For weeks they sat around trying to find something they had in common, until the royal assistant asked them who was to be queen. It was then that they realized the answer to their riddle.

Ali-Boobie, understanding that there could only be one queen, new she had to think of a solution to their problem.

Ali-Boobie said, "I will be queen for a day and make a new rule, so that we may all rule Mermaidia together! We shall divide the land into three equal parts."

The sisters agreed.

For one day Ali-Boobie was queen and in that day she gave her sisters equal authority to rule the land by her side so that they may save their father from Hellatian's evil grasp.

Suddenly, there was a clamor. One of the messengers bubbled into the main entrance of the Mer-Castle.

"I have found the king!" he said. "He is in a pond across the way babbling with some seagulls that were lounging around nearby."

So the sisters sent for the royal turtles to go get their father and carry him across the land back into the sea.

Once King Bojo arrived and saw how wonderfully his daughters had handled the situation, he was so proud of them and let them stay in charge of running the kingdom.

Issues of Domestic Violence

I recently found myself in a second abusive relationship.

I saw all of the signs and kept telling myself that it was not really happening, he couldn't be doing what I thought he was doing. No way. He kept showing all good signs as well.

Wrong.

Things progressively got worse. He started out being just too entirely clingy for a man. It wasn't even cute. Then he had me change my phone number. Next, I had to get off of facebook. All the while, he still had his old number and even a facebook account. Then he began making comments about my friends whom he'd never even met.

I felt completely suffocated.

Next came a night with a huge, horrible fight. He was actually surprised that I would defend myself. I told him, I promised myself never to let a man talk to me or treat me like that. So I don't. I should have left then.

Finally, about three weeks ago, he started in again and took it to another level. So did I. I defended myself just as hard as he tried to hurt me. Luckily, it was self defense or I may be sitting in jail at this very moment.

When you discover that you are with a person who is not good for you and not willing to change, leave. Not next week, not tomorrow. NOW.

It is not going to get any better.
