baby goldfish
This weekend we discovered baby goldfish in our pond!!! It seems the goldfish were doing more than just frolicking in the partially submerged lotus pots this Spring...they were SPAWNING!! We now have dozens of cute little bronze fishies, which will soon develop gold or white coloring, depending on who the parents were.
On Friday I was to go to the Marine performance at the barracks of 8th and I. However, a small treat of gummi worms earlier in the day cursed me with stomach gurgles and resultant discomfort. I went home prematurely to be close to porcelean. It seems that now Jimbo is all grown up, he can't have jelly beans, gummi bears, or gummi worms. Must be something with the gelatin.
Saturday we played D&D, and then went out to dance, which was fun. This week will be a busy concert week, as I'm going to see Indigo Girls on Tuesday. We managed to get Madonna tickets for Friday, providing her laryngitis is cured by then.
Sunday I went to see my friend's art at Art in the Park up at Meridian Hill Park. I didn't stay long as there was a woman on the microphone who really enjoyed projecting her train of thought through the speakers, so I had to go. My bike had a flat so I took it to the bike shop to get a new tire and tune-up. Planted some myrtle my friend Brian gave me, subdued our wild tomatoes, and replanted some jalapeno peppers that were planted too closely. Then I played my new addictive computer game Baldur's Gate for a while before we went to bed.

But what we really want to know is was there splatter on the runway, airport boy? Or was there a decapitation?
Indiglo Gurls too? Jeezus are you sure you arn't a raging lesbian!

Well jimbo, funny you should ask. I learned about the splattering from the Post, but heard not a peep within the Authority. Bloody PR is bad PR, it seems.
I will offset my raging lesbianism at the Madonna concert on Friday, becoming a raging, squealing queen.

I just won a few Baby gold fish from a fair in my town. The fish are from a local pet store. Do you know how long they last or ever how long it takes for them to be older and form the goldish color?
If you do know these answers please write back before i know how long they last! Thanks you!
