Fish, thy name is...?
I got a fish. A beta. He's very pretty. A shiny blue with purple and pink coloring too. He doesn't have a name yet. I'm searching currently for a name from mythology for him, as I watch him attack his reflection in the corner of the tank. i got a mini tank because one of the admissions counselors had her beta in filtered moving water and he was a lot more active. i turned the filter on for this one, and he nearly was sucked into it and made sushi. So, I turned it off. I'll get him a bowl tomorrow and stick a few goldfish in the tank tank. It's an expensive fish weekend but seeing how I dont need to use the food money next week, I figure...i'm allowed to splurge 20 bucks on fish stuff. He's very happy now that the filter's off. I chose him because he's pretty and the most active of all the betas and he has yet to let me down. He's my muse. He reminds me a lot of Emily now Cale (with an accent over the e that I can't make here) in Heir (now called The Eighth Sea).
Cat, I won't finish this in time for you to edit this summer so wherever you are this fall if you have any spare time, I should be finished it by then. But once again, I restarted it. I was reinspired and realized that this story I meant to stand alone from the other two. I had felt restricted by the world I already created, but if this story's different, then I can reform that world. So I put gods and goddesses back into the mix, created a magic system, and put the concepts of memory, death and fate in the forefront of my themes. I am thoroughly enjoying this darker but more interesting and complex version. And Erie has a ship I can sit on all day since its nearly a carbon copy of what I was imagining for the ship Sikae (accent over the i). Most of the novel takes place on the Sikae so I need to be very accurate in my descriptions.
Anyways, I just named the spaz of a fish "Tu". The polynesian god of war's name was Tu (I think it was polynesia, it was an Oceania island nation and I just closed the window) so we're going to go with that. The goldfish will be named on Monday when I get some. Yeah. Anyways. Tu.
Kinda like "You". As in, you haven't called me and I've given up--isn't that sad?
New artist: Eliot Morris. I will burn a CD for you, Caitlin, since I think you'd kinda like this guy (kinda like = really like but its only a guess) and send it to you. I talked to ben for 45 minutes the other night. I miss him. I have no idea what the fuck is up with Angela since she doesn't return phone calls. i've chatted a bit with Meg but haven't seen her yet. Carrie's hopefully coming up this summer to visit. My horse is a super star and I'm going to go see him right now. Bye!
