well, no real deaths have taken place, only symbolic ones. my hope of having babies has all but died...i've wanted to have pet babies since pretty much forever and then i came upon the wonderful world of FISH. i dont know how i thought of this as wonderful, its really a lengthy process...its really convenient that all we humans have to do is a little in out shoot shoot...these poor fish go through fucking leaps and bounds, i tell ya. first zach had to build a nest out of BUBBLES!!! bubbles! he made a fine bubble nest, if i do say so myself....apparently it did not entice Kelly, all she had to say was, "shake your tailfeather," at him, which she proceeded to do, and which he proceeded to bite the fuck off. really, though, zack, dont you have like 10x the tail of kelly? does she really need her propeller eaten off?! whatever bitch she still works.
so i forced them together. i know, you cant force it. but maybe once they rubbed fins theyd work it out, specially since zach had gotten so excited and built such a fantastic nest....so i dumped kelly in. they swam in bitter harmony until approximately an hour ago, when thai decided to intervene in their pleasure...i bet they were making sweet betta love at that very moment and thai couldnt stand it...i wouldnt know, i was on the phone and only heard the CRASH! water, plants, rocks, FISHIES! all over the kitchen floor...
why did you wait until now, thai? you all lived in peace for many many moons and then one day you just decided, "hey, i havent knocked this over, ITS TIME." i mean, i dont have kitty logic so i guess i dont understand, but really. i scooped up zach and kelly and i think theyre ok but their relationship will never rebound and i doubt theyll make babies at this point, or ever. theyre getting past their prime, which can happen in a matter of just weeks for these poor little aquatic beings. i dont know what to say to you, thai. this is almost as bad as when i couldnt look at you because you ingested fleas and or their eggs which resulted in a tape worm. rest in fucking turmoil, tapeworm. i hope my fish are alive in the morning.
pray for them or lemme know about good "saving betta fish from from flopping on the floor to tap water without betta tank water cleaner cause i aint got none" remedies. assuming thats a coherent statement...
CHOOSE LIFE, zach y kelly! i hope to give you guys a lively feeding of freeze dried bloodworms in the AM...
