Right, so this is just about the way things go normally. We buy some 12c fish at the store to feed to the snake. The snake was amused, but didn't eat them. So I stuck them in a plastic tub for a week, feeding them beta food, even. After a week, I figure I might as well get a real aquarium for them. But before that, I give them fresh, de-chlorinated, room-temp water.

They were dead when I got back with the aquarium. Of course!

So I just had to go back and get the see-through catfish instead. Too neat. I need to find some more colored glass things to go on the bottom, too, 'cause the gravel they sell is just not blue enough.

So maybe tomorrow I'll actually, oh, I don't know, GET SOMETHING WRITTEN. It could happen. I've actually been getting in a couple hundred words a day, but have yet to manage finishing this story. Yes, the same story I was whining about last time. I'm kind of scared to see if it's going to be over 5k when I get it typed in. It's currently residing in my notebook in longhand, they way they usually do.

That's enough excitement for now. Yeah. Or something.
