It's dark, oh so dark. the velevety night envelopes me. I am annoyed because I have to urinate, but I have precious few hours left in which to enjoy the night and the sleep that comes with it. I have 300 count sheets, and they feel like butter, silky. I stretch and ipen an eye to look at the clock. I hear the steady sound of water dripping *drip drip drip* rapidly, like someone left a faucet on. In my sleepy haze I start to get annoyed, because it makes the urge to get up and go more pronounced. ~~drip~~
Angry I toss the sheets aside, get up and head for the bathroom. On the way, the dripping gets louder. My fishtank stands right next to the doorway and I pause to look at it. I just moved it there, and I also bought 3 new sharks, 2 of which happen to be in the freezer, dead, for when I get a chance to return them.
this is where my dramatic story ends folks. I throw the light on in a haze of anoyance and fury BECAUSE AT 5 O'FUCKING'CLOCK IN THE MORNING I HAVE TO CLEAN UP ALL THE GODDAMN WATER IN THE KITCHEN NOT TO MENTION THE FUCKING WATERLOGGED CAT SHIT BOX THATS UNDERNEATH IT.
My fish!!!! my poor FISH!!! (and not to mention my baby snail!) I got the biggest bowl out that I could find, put my 10+ fish in it, moved the fucking thing over to my sink, and just sat there wondering if I should just go back to fucking bed or put the goddamn coffee on.
Oh man. I am most concerned about my fish. they cant live like that! I ended up being able to situate my tank enough to where the leaking stopped, returned them to thier now much depleted home, and its only fucking 7am and I gota go to work and I know that I am most likely going to come home to more causalties.
and you know really, its not about my fondness for the fish. fish dont live very long yes I know. but god damn I spent a good bit of loot on that tank, had an awesome litle ecosystem finally balanced, and now this.
And belive me, I know what your thinking. Tina, you really dont have a life do you?
well thats right. I dont. I rather enjoyed my fish tank an-
omg I'm freaking out need to stop and prepare for the fucking commute in this city of filth and angry people.
Man... the cleanup. I have goten rather obsessive with cleanliness and knowin that there are fish germs everywhere and now wet cat shit, I just dont know how Im going to make it through my day.
