Goodbye Fast.... :(

It started about 3 years ago. The boys "won" some goldfish (can you say $.15 feeder fish) at summer camp. They named them "Fast" and "Nemo" 

They were all right...the boys lost interest pretty quick (SHOCKER!!) and I got stuck taking care of them (another SHOCKER!). Let me say, I don't like fish... I resented having to feed them (which I BARELY did) and clean them (what's that??) and I couldn't wait for them to die!! (did I say that out loud?) But those f*ckers wouldn't die!!! Well until the other day... Fast looked pretty bad... almost dead.. but that little sh*t kept on moving everytime I would try to "fish" ;) him out and flush him!! But it was clear he wasn't going to make it .. YAY!! (did I just "yay"??.. *hangs head in shame*..) And finally he went to the big fishbowl in the sky...phew! Only one more, Nemo, needed to drop dead and I would be FREE!!! Free of additional duties I really didn't want. I didn't tell the boys that Fast died. I wanted to see if they would even notice. Well not 24 hours later Cole says " HEY where's Fast??" SHIT!! "Well son, he's dead" And then... then it happened.... he's eyes filled up with tears and at that moment I knew.. I knew I wouldn't be done with these damn FISH!! On a positive note, Drew didn't really care ;)!
So today we headed out to get "Fast #2" and "Rockin' Fish"....

They are ugly as H*LL... not even "gold"... and the only 2 that looked like this. .. but these were the ones they wanted :) And so far so good... everyone seems happy!

And I guess I'm happy too...well just a little..if it makes the boys happy then I'm happy (sorta!)... Oh and BTW did you know......

Happy Friday all!! Now go out and change your life... just don't do it with eyelash extensions, try a "gold"fish or two instead!
