goldfish

it seems like there is so much to do with so little time!

by the time I've gotten home from work, I've had little time to relax, as I've either been preparing for the trip, or trying to spend time with the people I'm going to miss the most.

Yesterday I went to visit my Uncle Johnny (UJ), Aunt Laura, cousin Marissa and have "visitation rights" with my fish. Since my parents neither wanted the responsibility of keeping my goldfish alive, nor did they wish to have a 20 gallon, let alone a 55 gallon fish tank in the house, my uncle who is a skilled acquarist himself, gladly and graciously agreed to take care of my goldfish for the summer.

My 3 goldfish, Emerill, Dewey and Elie along with Matt Emerick's fish Bettamax and my uncle's goldfish and fellow tank buddy Jumbo are all comfortably living in a 55 gallon aquarium in my uncle's basement. I can hardly wait for the day where I'll be able to move the tank to my own place, as it is truly a sight to behold.
