Who says fish aren’t loved?

January 25, 2010

Who says fish aren’t loved?

Girllovesfish

Look at that devotion. This weekend, we did our first water change/bowl cleaning. It went swimmingly well.

Fishlovesgirl 

The girl is clearly enamored. It seems to be mutual.

I would write more witty banter about the fish love, but you'll have to excuse me as I'm still nursing the wounds of last night's Vikings loss. Until I regain my groove, please, enjoy more of my girl and her cuteness.

Girlwhoisreallycute 

(Poor little thing. She has no idea of the years of Minnesota football fandom disappointment that await. There, there, child. Mama's here. Mama's here…)

    I learned of the disappointing fandom early on in life since I was a Browns fan. LOL

    ah, that girl is sooo photogenic! And you seem to have a knack of capturing her personality in shots as well. The expression on her face, and looking into the bowl is priceless! I wish I had shots of me when I was young, so I could see what I was like! And my parents too…I hope she appreciates these when she is older!

    If it makes you feel any better, there’s a big ache here with long suffering J-E-T-S fandom, too. At least Tarkenton took the Purple People Eaters to the big game a number of times… I know, the agony of defeat… but we’re still hanging on to pantyhose-wearing Broadway Joe’s Cosmo spread and the miraculous Super Bowl III of 1969. It’s been a LONG time since the Jets have had a whiff of anything resembling victory. You’ve just given me story line inspiration for a DYL layout!

    Yeah – i remember crying when the viking lost in super 8 and 11 and crying. The same happended this morning but it was my 8 year old. I turned off the lights last night and tried to forget what happened. Once agian they never fail to disappoint, with 19 sec left I was thinking this might be it. I only hope they can win a Super Bowl before I leave this earth!

    Watch out for those fish – they tend to jump out of the water when your not watching and have you ever tried to catch a flapping fish on the floor which jumped onto the kitchen cabinet and then onto the floor. I don’t know how the thing survived.
    Really cute pictures – do you think she’d shared the orange sweater?

    When I was 5 we lived in Minneapolis. My parents are still die-hard Vikings fans. Way back then they managed to score season tickets and devotedly went and froze their tushies off in Fran Tarkenton love. I feel ya. While I think New Orleans needs this, I am deeply disappointed over the Vikings.

    I cannot imagine sitting outside in 0 degree weather. Ouch!

    My 5 year old loved his fish so much he pulled it out of the water by its fin. You can imagine the rest. Now Reddy is in the Great Ocean in the Sky! Also sad about the Vikings loss last night. I love Brett, and as a Florida Gator fan am a huge fan of Percy Harvin. Was a bummer.

    Just had to tell you we had a much-beloved and long lived Beta fish that was my favorite pet ever! His bowl was near the sink and I’m telling you, he would swim around excitedly and flip his little fins at us whenever we approached. Enjoy!

    Precious pictures! Cathy, when the Saints have had bad seasons in the past (just about every stinkin’ one!) the fans in the Superdome cover their heads with paper bags. It’s hysterical! We, too, know the sad, sad sting of defeat. Y’all sure gave us a run for our money!

    Sorry Brett had to finish the game like that for you. Being a Packer fan, I thought maybe he could help the Vikings and be better than he finished in Green BAy.

    Love the pix of your beau daughter! Do you have one of her looking THRU the glass bowl at her fishy? πŸ™‚

    Even this Packer fan was disappointed with the loss. I was rooting for my favorite 40-yo QB & your purple & gold team.

    I agree–she looks so much like you!! Probably NOT what she wants to hear at all…..I feel your football pain. As a loyal Huskies’-cold-wet-bottom fan, it’s hard to watch sometimes when they seem to forget why they’re on the field…..we have a beta too, Jasper. And they are just as responsive as goldfish, no matter what anyone says. xxKaren

    I feel your pain Cathy. It’ll be another week until I can even bear to read Monday’s sports section. I’m a Viking fan living in Green Bay, so I also have to endure all of the bitter, gloating Packer fans.

    And also, I do love the pics of your daughter and how her personality seems to shine through in your photographs.

    I didn’t get a wink of sleep after that Viking’s loss. I was just starting to like Favre after years of despising him as a Packer . . . and now this. Ugh.

    Oh to be young again and look like an (age appropriate and completely innocent) rock star even as you are standing around in your bathrobe cleaning a fish bowl.

    Sigh …

    I would take me an hour and full makeup to even THINK about appearing on a blog in my jammies these days …

    Still feeling the pain here. Been a life long Vikings fan.

    I can’t handle this loss or see the joy of a great season because the refs bet us in overtime not the team that won.
