Gilligan's Island
Margarita is her name. Captain is her title. She is from a long line of fisherman and tourist boat captains. She grew up in the Tampa bay and it's smaller tributaries. Her dark hair has been bleached by the sun since girlhood. Her caramel skin made bronzed by all her hours outdoors. Her father, a native Floridian, was inspired to name her Margarita after his favorite Jimmy Buffet song, "Margaritaville." Margarita hated her name growing up. She grew tired of drunken men teasing her about it. She insisted that people call her Ariel, like the Disney princess. She often thought she was secretly a mermaid. She never tired of the water, and was a strong swimmer.

The last time I saw my husband, he was in jail. I sent him there. After seven years of abuse, I was fed up. I felt sorry for him afterwards and visited him at the jail. He told me he was refusing his insulin, and food. He told me the shirt I was wearing looked slutty, but it was okay because," he liked it." He called me a few times, and every time I cried. I realized he would never do anything but make me sad.
