Well one day, I was bored, so I went shopping! I walked by an aquarium in Old Town and was intrigued by the colorful fish. Twenty minutes later, I was the proud owner of a beta fish (I wanted a Greek one! : ). Well, I probably should have thought this through before I bought a fish....
One, I don't like fish.
Two, I don't like to change the water (I think its gross and I dont want to touch the fish or drop it).
Three, I travel a lot so the fish goes hungry.
Four, I don’t think I was ready for this kind of responsibility.
So here I am, with this fish, that I don’t like (its name is fish) and it tricks me all the time. This fish literally dies, and comes back to life. I will be gone for a long weekend, and I come home and, Shit. The freakin fish died. So I am creeped out (because I don’t like to touch the water) and I don’t know what to do, so I put a bag over the bowl. I leave my apartment to ask someone downstairs to help me dispose of my poor fish (I felt bad for it) but couldn’t find anyone. I go back to my apartment and lift the bag, ITS A MIRACLE! The fish is alive!
This has happened multiple times.
The last time it was on its back flipped over and it still came back to life.
So now my fish and I have a better understanding. I purchased a fish feeder when I am out of town and it hasn’t fainted lately. I still won’t change the water, so if you visit, that is what I expect from my guests : )
Point of the story, think before you shop : )
