R.I.P. Frank
my fish, Frank died while we were gone. :( i think he didn't know to eat the vacation feeder tablets. but it could have been something else. of course i feel kind of sad, b/c even though i haven't had him long, we spent the better part of everyday together, me chillin' on the bed, and him swimmin' around his tank. also i feel badly, b/c maybe it would have been a better idea to give the whole tank to someone to watch and feed him, instead of trying to do the vacation feeding tablets.

and it's monday again!
ah, my friends. i'm back. hopefully i'll start blogging more regularly again like a good little blogger. i have been visiting all your sites, but have been lurking. sorry!whatever plague my husband was enjoying last week is now mine. i felt it in the back of my throat and top of my nose yesterday, and tonight it blossomed into a full blown YECH. i woke up at 2 AM with my throat sore and found myself coughing before i even knew what was going on. lol. of course at 2 AM it's too late to take any nyquil or sleeping pills, right? right. soooo i coughed and slept on and off all morning....then sent my long-suffering husband off in the wee hours to buy more nyquil, more dayquil, and some sweet fizzy vitamin C drink packets. i'm stocked, baby. so i'm trying to inundate my plague with vitamins and rest, hoping to head it off. :)
in more interesting news, my fish is bulimic. no, seriously, i have seen the proof with my own eyes. at first i thought he was just a very light eater, but then yesterday night i was watching him 'eat', and he gulped one of the little pellets down, and then SPIT IT BACK OUT! what's up, aren't the Betta Bits good enough for you, frank? harrumph. after a brief conference with the husband, i've decided that the fish is ungrateful and mean. no, just kidding, i think he may not be hungry as often as i've been feeding him. sooooo we go to one feeding a day now. see how he likes that.
for those of you with time to kill, check out Kingdom of Loathing. it's an online game that is hilarious and fun.

changes
sooo on a whim, i switched my blog over to BETA -- thinking this would just add a few new features, etc. it was kind of underwhelming because i go to comment on others' blogs, and i CAN'T comment on blogspot blogs unless they've switched to beta, too!! horrors!! soooo if i haven't commented lately, please know that i've tried! most recently, i tried to express all this to Grandi at Grandi's Grazings, b/c she was asking about this very issue!! lol.but in other news, i have a friend to introduce you all to. his name is Frank, and he's my new fish! i just got him a week ago, but wasn't able to post with pictures, so i put it off.
here he is:
what a cutie, right? right. he lives on my nightstand, so we hang out together most of the time. that's it for me, but i'll just end with a push for those on Blogger to move to blogger beta!!! :)Labels: blogger beta, Frank
