Gaia ate my soul again. So I haven't been updating as much as I should.

I am so frigging tired today! Holy cow. But I get to lounge around in my big MDM t-shirt and watch tv or play video games or Sims or something.
I still want new video games.

I bought new fish yesterday, hurrah! 3 big angels, 3 gourami's, and a snail. The angels cost more then I had originally wanted to pay, but they were so beautiful and healthy and wonderful that I couldn't pass them up for something less.

The snail was named for me just after I bought it. While the clerk was bagging my fish there was a dad with his two little kids who were watching with utter fascination. When the bag was handed to me I offered to let them see which they readily did! They were so totally taken with the concept of fish in a bag that I asked them if they wanted to name the snail for me. After much consideration and smiles the snail was named "Minnie Mouse" which I thought was just too adorable. So from here on out I have a snail named Minnie.

We let our kids name the pets and have gotten names like "bank" and "airplane." Minnie's much cuter, but I dare say not so original.

Is Lionel glued to the icthy-vision screen?

The little girl was having trouble trying to think of something and her father wouldn't stop saying "Choose something! Say a name! Say a name!" so I finally asked her if she had a favourite cartoon character, and she said Minnie Mouse. So we decided on Minnie. ;)

Lionel thinks he's gone to cat heaven with all the new fish. My mom brought me some minnows today randomly and asked if I wanted them to feed to Seek. Seek won't eat live fish, so I stuck them in with my goldfish in the big aquarium. I have no idea if they'll survive but Lionel thinks they're great!
