But we had a terrible tragedy last night: the white fish expired! She was fine, swimming with her buddy and we were watching Ghostbusters, then halfway through the movie I went to get a drink and she was laying at the bottom of the pond, so I tapped the side and she flapped her wings a bit. Then I tapped harder on the way back and she FREAKED OUT on her side, flapping flipping flopping. Then she totally wedged herself under a rock at the bottom and DIED. Ugh. It's sad, really sad. She was 11 years old. I wish I knew why she died, what happened, to avoid it happening to the other gals. Yes, in the living room.

Not like, pick it up and hug it, but more like you can pet it. I'll get back to you on that.
