Burke is crazy

My new beta is insane. Perhaps I made him that way, but no matter.

I have some blue and white teardrop Christmas lights laced around the top of the entertainment center. It just so happens that the lights wrap around Burke's bowl. One of the blue lights is right up against the glass. When I first turn on the lights at night, he comes over to where the blue light is and he flares his gills and gets all aggressive. He "paces" back and forth (as much as a fish can pace) and challenges the bulb to a fight. He does this for about five minutes until he calms down. Each and every night he does this. Hysterical! Cheap entertainment for the poor grad student.

Hey MealyMel - I said my first rosary tonight at RCIA. Now I actually understand your comment on novenas!

I think we should start picking out your saint name. Or at least planning how you'll lie during your first confession.

Did you get my email about your stupid athletes?

Burke sounds like a cool fish. At least he's not trying to commit fishicide like the three different goldfish I once had successfully did (at different times, I might add!)

Hey - we didn't do the Guinness entries... that might be fun for Friday night. :)

I saw a Target commercial yesterday advertising "designer Beta homes." From what I could tell in that brief glimpse, they look like little fish condos. I think you should hook Burke up with one for Christmas.
