i accidentally killed my favorite fish today. no offense to peewee, my other fish, but orangina had personality. she was a silly kid that used to get angry if i passed her bowl without talking to her, or if i didnt cooperate with her wishes to become obese. she used to get angry if i didnt talk to her, and then she would get even angrier if i did talk to her. once in a while, her bowl was in a place that provided her a full view my bed and sex life. she got soooo angry that i would rather fuck my boyfriend than talk to her.
orangina was a good fish. she had a few nicknames..."ugly", "slut", or just "fish", which was the name that i mainly called her by. i blame myself for not paying better attention to the vast temperature difference between the water in her dirty bowl, and the temporary cup of water she was to be in while i cleaned the dirty bowl. i mean, she was old...that probably contributed, but it was mainly my absent-mindedness that resulted in her demise...
and i am sorry.
there will be a funeral and she will have her own itsy bitsy coffin. i have decided to wait until tomorrow morning so i can maybe bury her, rather than flushing her. she had too much personality for that. she deserves better. i would actually rather set her little coffin to float at sea, but there is no sea that is it accessible enough for that. so sad.
