Rest In Peace

Max (the wonder fish) has "passed on." I can't help feeling that somehow this is my fault. After blogging about Max the other day I started thinking about how nice it would be to have a baby Max. He had good genes after all.
Anyhow, I went to Walmart and bought Max a wife ("Anonymous" - see Strangerhood for details on the name) and brought her home to him. I went online and read about the breeding of Bettas.
We put Anonymous in a little bowl next to the bowl Max lived in. He got very excited and started to build a nest of air for his babies to live in. He would come to the top of the water, lay on his side and breathe in air. Then, he would go underwater and start blowing bubbles. It was fascinating. But, he either breathed air a little too long or his poor little heart just couldn't take the excitement.
John and Katie are planning funeral services in the backyard (although the toilet seems more appropriate - burial at sea and all that) later today. We now have one ugly Betta (aka anon.) and no Max - and also no Max babies .
Almost three years. It is sad - but I feel really bad about my part in it. :(
First, it is sad.
Seccond: HER NAME IS SHELA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT Anonnamous.
Third: Shela is NOT ugly!
Fourth: Of couse we can't jus flush him.
Fifth: I'm running out of things to type.
Six: I don't know why I am still writing these things, I'm out of things to say.
Seven: Okay, I'm done, goodbye.
max was a good friend. i'll miss him. it is more sad than little jerry who committed suicide after only living with me for a few months.
Huh?
I think Aunt Candi thought you meant Max's name was Sheila. :O)
Katie thinks Anonymous' name is Sheila, but it's not.
..sooo sad! Good-bye Max.
You could be right, Can!
I cry when fictional peoples die (Serious & other peoples!). Poor Max, and now SHELA is all alone (snif!)
Glad U thought so (make sure you be carefull drinking your water, at school I was getting a drink from the drinking fountan and my friend made me laugh and I laughed water out my nose, I sat down in the hallway and laughed for about five minutes). Yeah, Max is dead and SHELA is alone, it's sad. What animal is your Parent's Spoiled Rotten Beast?
