How Do I Do It On Land?


It is very difficult to stay away so long. From the water, that is. I have been asked before just how do I manage being away and on land for so long... The trick isn't absolute, but it works for the time I am away. I drink salt water - a calculated amount daily in the morning to start my day. As much as regular beings need fresh clean water, the most also need the minerals and deposits left behind in the form of salt, natural from the sea. Generally, one eats salt with meals. But mermaids, such as myself, need a bit more to flourish. It doesn't work out all the kinks of having land legs, so I must get wet sooner or later. But in the meantime... tasty salt water.
