so...

i'm considering getting a fish for my apartment. we used to have them when i was little. it was a huge tank and we had all sorts of fish. cardinals, goldfish, tiger fish i think they were called. i remember sitting there watching them swim around in that tank for what seemed like forever. it probably wasn't any more than about 10 minutes since my attention span wasn't that great :P. i never even thought about it until just now.

i am really cheap though, like a bare necessities kind of girl. yeah i'll miss having an animal... a LOT, but i can live. any animal requires monetary maintenance, and i just don't know if i'm willing to put in the few dollars a week to feed it. it could be fun, but we'll see. as i said in the last post: life is too much fun when you fly by the seat of your pants, and i think that's probably what i'll end up doing on this little venture.

how much does it cost to get a fish anyway? i guess i'll just have to find out!

i was just thinking: people's perceptions of you are so strange and interesting. a lot of times they don't really make sense. here's the perfect example: one of my best friends told me that the first time she saw me she thought i would be a total bitch because of my hair. of all things! my hair! i just thought that was hilarious and really interesting. it's weird how we judge people's personalities based on the way they carry themselves, or their hair, or their voice, or what clothes they wear. i'm definitely guilty of it, but i still think it's terribly interesting. ::sigh:: i smell like gasoline and freshly cut grass. i can't decide if i like it or not. have a marvelous rest of the week!

to cottonwood trees and the summer breeze,
