Good Night Fishy, Fishy....

Here Fishy Fishy... You were a priceless addition to the Fleming Family, well actually you costs 14 bucks a piece, a price I still can't believe I paid for a Fish I wasn't going to eat. When I saw you at Pet smart you looked like all of the other fish in the water - your tail fin wiggled from side to side, you swam fast to avoid the net, your eyes were bugged out and your lips were pucked as if you were blowing me a kiss.

I'm sorry that your life ended so abruptly. That boy can be so sweet at times and so devious at other times....He didn't know what he was doing, he thought that maybe you needed some hanitizer (as he calls it) he just didn't know that you wouldn't need a whole bottle. I'm sorry that I didn't explain to the girl that leaving the lamp on ALL the time could cause the water temperature to rise to a level that would leave you uncomfortable - especially with all that alcohol floating in the water...

Their intentions were well, but what can I say- - they're not that advanced when it comes to caring for fish.... and apparently neither am I - - I didn't even bother to give you a name...I just called you FISH!

I'll turn off the lamp, and stop staring at you, and since your last few days as a Fleming were excruciatingly painful I'll let you die in peace. I'll do my best to give you a proper burial and I promise not to flush you down the toilet, so long as you promise not to haunt my dreams or house.

Good Night Fishy Fishy...
