A Bit Later

Having just read through the previous post, I feel a little bit daft. I always thought that blogging should be an immediate thing - slap down what comes out first and leave it there. Ok. So I will leave it there.

I just think I came across as some sort of suicidal, teenage goth. Before you think this sounds stupid, please bear in mind that I know quite a few suicidal, teenage goths so I know what I am talking about.

To tell the truth, I had more or less cheered up 10 minutes after sticking my X-Men 3 DVD into the player just after shutting down the PC. It still felt good though.

Fish & Pips

I am so proud of that title. It almost works.

First the fish. The bloody fish. There are three fish in my bowl/aquarium thing and for about the first week they were fine. Over the last few days, one in particular began to beat the crap out of the others. Now many of you are thinking..”they are goldfish with spongy soft orange mouths, how can they beat they crap out of other fish?”. To tell the truth I am still not sure myself but there was a lot of colliding, bashing and general orange spongy violence.

It seemed like the only thing to do was to fish the violent bugger out and segregate him/her. After almost an hour or useless thrashing about with ladle and a red beaker, I admitted defeat and borrowed a small net from a neighbour. A knock on the door at 10pm is strange at the best of times but when its a bare-footed neighbour asking to borrow fishing equipment it touches on the surreal. Within mere minutes (almost 20 of them), the shiny, golden thug was angrily alone in his tiny new home and all was calm again.

Imagine my confusion this morning when the large bowl appeared to completely devoid of fish. I looked everywhere and to be honest, there aren’t a lot of places to hide in there. Bizarrely, the were both hiding behind the filter. Probably forever traumatized by the sight of hairy hands, ladels and red beakers.

Now the Pips. Thanks for a fun little trip Pip and Vivian.

Saw Spiderman 3 last night. Don’t believe the reviews. It’s freekin’ awesome.
