My Jackie Boy Died sometime in the morning of Monday, May 15, 2006. I am bummed, but I was not entirely surprised, because he was doomed from the start. He came from an under-par fish store and he was small and always had some kind of health concern, at least to me. I came home from my weekend in Columbus to see that both Jack & Jesus looked sickly. So I closed the window - to warm it up in here; Bettas hate the cold - and fed them all. Apparently Jackie Boy couldn't take it so he passed on in the night. Jesus is doing just fine. I swear I've saved him sooo many times.

So now I'm left with my original two boys, Jesus & Adolph. I love those two sooo much. They are really great Bettas. Jesus builds the best bubble nests and Adolph loves to watch me.

I feel like absolute shit right now. Yesterday I woke up with a sore throat. Not sore in the sense that it hurt to talk or swallow. Sore in the raw sense. I tried drinking a lot of juice and water yesterday but nothing worked. I got a ton of sleep yesterday with naps, etc. I even made it to work yesterday. Today I've woken up several times throughout the night and my throat just keeps getting worse. Now it hurts to swallow and I still have that annoying raw feeling when I'm just sitting here doing nothing. I'll be calling off work this morning to go to the Health Center and get this shit checked out. As much as I hate taking meds to take care of my health problems, I might need to in this case. Blah.

I think it may have been caused by my trip to Columbus after spending 2 straight months in Athens with the fresh air. I was in Columbus for one weekend and I was breathing the heavily polluted air and I come back here where it's nice and clean and fresh and I get sick. Figures.
