Sorry!

To all my faithful readers (hah!). I'm sorry that I haven't updated, I've been kinda busy with school type stuff and I find it hard to make time for anything. So, news. My red Betta Raphael passed away. It turns out that he came with a pretty funky fin/mouth rot problem and it never quite cleared up. I tried to cure him and he seemed healthier for a while, but I guess he just finally gave up. I can take comfort in knowing that he died in comfort and not in a tiny, filthy torture bowl.

Anywho, before he died, I rescued a whitish Betta who I then named Alphonse. He's very healthy and currently the sole occupant of a ten gallon tank. He enjoys swimming through his log, building bubble nests and dining on bloodworms.

I got nothing else to report. School is running me ragged, I don't get to see my boyfriend very much and I'm having problems with medications. BLAH!

So here's a joke. Two old ladies are talking...One says to the other "Men say 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?'" and I say "Why buy the pig when all you want is a little sausage?!" HAHA. Yeah, I stole that from a greeting card..whatever.

New Fishy!!!

Welcome to my hizzy young fishy!!!! Now, for a name.

Fishes, Part Deux!

Sick fishes are all better now!
New rubber lip plecostomus!
My boyfriend's betta, Picasso!

Tragedy

R.I.P Marilyn (? 2008-July 2008)

My pretty white molly was belly up on the bottom this morning. I have no idea what killed her (the ich was gone). She was fine last night and this morning(3 am), so I am completely baffled.....and depressed. Now I'm worried that my water is toxic. The rest of the fish seem to be fine though and dropsy fish looks almost normal again.

I am so sad. :(

Fishes!!!

From top to bottom. My 14 gallon tank with three grown up mollies and one baby molly, amazon sword plants, argentine sword plants and a java fern. My ten gallon tank with one molly who has dropsy, mopani driftwood, Scraggly assed Argentine swords, Amazon swords, tiny baby java ferns and various bulbs. A photo of the molly with dropsy. A photo of two of the adult mollies in the 14 gal. tank.

I LOVE MY FISH.

In other news, I was all super-hopped up on caffeine today so I cleaned the litter box (which was fucking disgusting), I washed dishes, did laundry and changed fish water and cleaned the tanks. I am so god damned tired.

Life....

Two of my beloved Molly fishes are sick. One with dropsy and the other with ich. I have both of them quarantined in my ten gallon tank and am hoping they pull through. Anywho, aside from fishy illnesses, nothing has happened. School still blows, my cats still drive me nuts and I am so not looking forward to the next two weeks. I just wanna sleep and not have to worry about anything. I'm also broke and spent 80 dollars on the setup for the hospital tank and medicines for ill fishies. Yes, I am a softie for critters of all kinds. Bite me.


Sick Fish- The white one has Ich and the gold and black spotted one has Dropsy.


And this is my newest feline friend, Louie. He makes the fifth inside cat, but isn't he cute?! And he brings the total number of critters inside and out to 14. Blah.

Ugh.

I have gotten so goddamn bipolar since I quit smoking. I am so pissed off. I don't even have a reason to be pissed off. I'm just...MAD.

ARGH

Blah.

Bobo!!



Absolutely fucking nothing has been happening. Summer school is a drag and my professor is pretty much nonexistent, which wouldn't bother me most of the time, but I'm worried that I'm gonna bomb the class. So fuck you professor.

It's really sad that most of my posts are about school. I don't have too much going on anywhere else. I do happen to have five cats inside now and like, 2 outside. That brings my total number of critters to...14. Whee!

I wish I had something intellectual to say, or some kind of philosophy to discuss, but I don't. My brain is on hiatus.

Oh and Judas Priest, Motorhead and Testament are going to be here in August. Fuckin' right.

So....

Too busy to update. I hate school.

February summary.

Seeing as how it's almost the end of the month, I figured I'd do a little end-of-month summary type deal. Especially since I haven't really written anything this month. My life is so boring. Ugh.

Well, the month started out okay...Hell, nothing has really happened, actually. There was "big drama!" in the friend department around Valentine's Day and that fucked me up for a few days, but I'm pretty much over it now and no longer have those friends...one of whom is an evil bitch-monster, but hey, I'm not mad. Um...I got in touch with some friends I probably never should've lost touch with. I made nice with people who I've held grudges against for five years. Wow. That is a long time to hold a grudge. Huh. Lemme see...My brother got deployed to Iraq for the third time. My dad is buying a house, while we sit up here and rot in our leaky trailer house. Pardon me for thinking that he should help us out every once in a while. Silly of me to assume things. Anyway, I'm working on fixing things around here, but it's going slow because of unpredictable weather patterns....Tomorrow is the one month mark on my smoke free-ness. That's pretty much it. Oh, due to "big drama!", I had to drop a class, which now gives me four day weekends AND Wednesdays off. How fuckin' rad is that? Totally rad.

Weirdest thing ever: My cat, Nyx is like, madly in love with my dog.
