Requiem for a Goldfish

That's horrible man. I am so sorry. How are you even at work? I think that neccessitates a bereavment day.

I don't know how I do it.  I'm just really really strong.

A candlelight vigil will be held tomorrow night at 8:00 over by the toilet.  The family has requested that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to The Moby Dick Wide Open Tank Charity.

My brother took it a little harder than I did. He picked up the cold, dead fish and took it into the bathroom. Upon putting it into the toilet, he said "Yep, he's dead." I think he half expected it to just start swimming or something.

And people say there's a god...

I've been texting him all morning.  We're going out after work to get him a new fish.  He wants to get 'a six-dollar one...not the ping-pong ball game at the carnival kind'. 

He's been trying to get ahold of my mom to tell her the bad news. 

Fish are really gross. I hate how they swim around with that poo hanging out of their butts.

hmm that might not happen if you had a top to the fishtank.
