Life under the sea is better than anything they got up there

Oh, to be a mermaid. Sometimes I lie awake at night and dream of what it would be like to be a little mermaid. I could swim around under the sea and sing tunes with all the sea creatures. How I long to meet King Triton and thank him for his sacrifical love to Ariel. I would praise her sisters for accepting her choices and commend Flounder for his never-ending friendship even in the midst of danger.

Sebastian may not have been right about everything, but he does have a lot of good quotes. "Teenagers, you give them an inch, they swim all over you." Or what about "the seaweed is always greener in somebody elses lake." He was like the prophet to the merpeople and they made him their conducter so he could set all of his wise sayings to delightful tunes such as "Under the Sea."

This post is dedicated to the little mermaid who has delighted the lives of many young girls since the 80's. Girls looking for their Prince Eric and hoping to be "part of your world."

When I was in high school my mom rented this movie and brought it home. I was like Im not watching that it looks dumb (typical guy statement) of course I ended up watching it and really liked it. And wouldn't admit to anyone at the time. :-) But then as a senior had a friend that was a girl and she used to have people over to her house and it was her favorite movie she always had to watch that movie for some reason. So over time it became a little old. But Im sure if i watched it again I would still like it. Now that is because Im even more of a softy than I used to be. Amanda I remember your favorite movie used to be "Ever After". Has that changed?

Of course I still LOVE that movie! WOW, you really do have a good memory. And, you should rent the little mermaid and watch it again-it came out on DVD this week.

What did you think of my picture? I didn't have glasses when we were hanging out, did I?
