First of all, there is a pregnant female in the O'Bryant household. It is a mollie...that seems to give birth to live tiny fish as easily as breathing. We purchased two mollies and brought them home only to find 4 fish in the bag. Two big and two tiny.
Now, we have 4 big fish in the tank and about 18 tiny "fry". The aquarium people have assured me that the big fish will eat the little fish which initally horrified me. Now, however, I can only see the beauty of such a plan. Eat your young, go ahead, please! Do it for me. Chow one for the team.
Of course, I have inherited mollies with an absurd sense of the maternal. They don't WANT to eat their young. They just want to procreate their tiny mollie heads off. Did you know that female mollies can store sperm for up to 6 months? If they are stressed or aggravated with their tank mates, they will not gestate, they'll just "hold it in" somehow and impregnate themselves, later.
THere's a lesson there, somewhere.
Onward, I myself have now lost 10 pounds! It is not lost on me that this is roughly the size of a human baby, or two 5 pound sacks of sugar. Both are sweet, and both have done hideous things to my figure.
Dogs. Why did I want one? I am speaking to my beloved friend Sparkle on the phone when I have to fling the phone away and chase after McIdiot McMutt. He led me a merry chase until I tackled him and sat on him for a few minutes.
Teach him to interrupt me and Sparkle.
