Poseidon Hates Me

Let me just say that I have been soooo excited all day. I saw THREE squid swimming in the ocean today. I have only ever seen two before, and I saw those while I was snorkeling at Looe last week. This morning I saw a 12 inch squid swimming, but it swam away very quickly when I started calling for the campers to come look at it. Then about 5 minutes later I saw two hovering above a gorgonian (a soft coral for those of you who are non-scientists). They just stayed there while I got all 8 of the kids in my class to swim over and look at them. It was amazing.

Clearly, I was having a fantastic day. I decided to google the squid so I could put a picture of one on here for you. When I typed in "squid in South Florida," this is what came up: Giant squid found in Stuart

SERIOUSLY?!?! I leave Stuart, and they find a giant squid there?! I am livid. I can't even believe that this has happened. Why was I not there to see it? This is nonsense, Stuart. You should love me enough to wait until I'm home to find sea monsters so I can see them for myself!

I'm reminded of the time I left the beach early and a seal came up on Stuart Beach an hour later. I mean, what's next? The Megaladon will probably swim up the river and prove it's alive while I'm all excited to be snorkeling with a nurse shark in the Keys. It's like Poseidon is trying to play some cruel trick on me.

Needless to say, I'm buying a camera right now so that I don't have to google anymore pictures for you guys.
