Nothing great happened today so I am writing about something that happened the other day.
And it caught me totally off guard.
I was telling the lady at the pet store how here on my blog I had an official enemy thanks to my betta fish … and how I was accused here of being a bad betta fish owner …
Then the man who worked there filled me in on some information …
How betta fish get freaked out by lots of movement in the water … read: the filter that I was reprimanded for not having …
And how they shed their slime coats and their fins stick together if you change the water too much … read: the reprimand I got for missing a weekly water change …
Then I walked past the “things you can buy for your fish tank” section. And what did I see?
I have been running into NaNo this and NaNo that for the last several weeks. I am ramping up, as it were, for the NaNoWriMo … the month-long novel-writing extravaganza.
Maybe I can get the poor beleaguered betta fish there their very own NaNo something for November.
What’s that you say? Betta Reefs are for Salt Water Fish Tanks?
Yeah, that would really not go over well with the Betta Fish fans, I’m thinking.

Actually, your Bettas would love it! They NEED something in their tanks to keep them busy and play with/swim through…just check to make sure it doesn’t have sharp edges…that can tear fins, and cause infection.^^

Do it! Your betta fish will love it! Oh, and I was wondering… Where did you get your badge? The one I have doesn’t look nearly as cool.

Ha ha ha. I thought that too when I saw “Nano Reef”, but took the blog post in another direction … Would NaNo Reefer grow in a NaNo Reef? Hydroponic gardening at its best …”

hahaha … You are talking to a child of the 60’s and 70’s here. But the way I figure it, if they are listening to MY life, they must be having a really slow day. The most they will hear is stuff to make them laugh or shake their heads. Now, twenty or thirty years ago …..

I wasn’t really that much of a rebel even back in the day…I pretended to be though…I guess I was always coming up with stories, even when I was a kid…of course, my mom called them lies…
