Rich took care of my

Rich took care of my beta fish, Vtot, while I was home for Christmas. He brought little Vtot to work last week so I could take him home, and I decided to leave Vtot at work for a few days. It turned out to be really fun having a fish at work, so on Friday after lunch I went next door to Petco and bought another beta fish. His name is Vern and he will live at work (I took Vtot back home). Over the weekend, Jo got a goldfish that now sits on the bookcase behind her desk, and Becca and Cari both got beta fish. I am such a fish trend-setter!

My new fish, Vern, however, is retarded. He won't eat. Perhaps he has become self-conscious because I keep calling him ugly. He has pretty purple fins, but a nasty white/orange/brown body. I picked him because ugly fish need homes too. But dude. Fish has gotta eat.
