My own fish tank

I have this weird thing with eating. I never eat any animal (well, no animals at the moment - veggie here I come!) that I would keep as a pet, or that I find disgusting. Fish always fell into the pet category. April the goldfish was my first pet, and surprisingly lived a very long life in goldfish terms. She even changed shades and sizes over the year! She was a miracle fish. (Note the sarcasm) I remember the day that I had to flush her down the toilet - I found her dead, there was no more tricking me! With the flush of April, went my desire to eat another fish finger - nearly 20 years ago. (God I am getting old! That's two decades of memories I can half ass recall)

Well, as part of my vegetarian diet, I have to include fish. So I am forcing myself. I know, its good for you, yadda yadda yadda...but I still do get a bit sad when I take a bite. I wish I could say this was me just being me, and a bit over the top, but unfortunately, I thought that The Little Mermaid depicted what really went down under the sea - cue Sebastian - and I will hold onto that child in me forever. I love fish nearly as much as I love fireworks - and that's a bold statement!


So, the best thing happened to me today - I found this video with a great song - Please don't go by Barcelona, and fishies!!!!! Throw it on HD, full screen, blast the music and sit back. Serenity now, serenity now.......


I wish I knew how to post a video, but since I don't - throw this in your browser...
