"Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push, and you'll be smilin'"
So -- true story. I cried when our betta fish died. I mean, it was an otherwise tough time, and it died because the dog stepped on it (long story). But yeah. Seems petty, but we displace a lot onto our pets, however small.
My girlfriend and I live together and we adopted two cats this past summer. They were born July 2nd. It's great having them and it's hard to think about what it was like before we had them.
Here are two pictures of them, I have tons more but I am at work and this is all I had here.
The first is both of them in their favorite bed, it's a crappy picture because I took it with my phone. I can't remember exacly when this picture was taken but I think they are around 2 months old at that point.
The second is them about 2 weeks ago, in the same bed. Clearly they both don't fit in it together anymore, but they still try. You can tell them apart because the boy (Tuxedo) has a blue collar and the girl (Layla) has a pink collar as well as a brown spot on her forehead.
Here is a pic of my yorkie. His name is Einstein. He's great. I thought he might be a yappie dog, but he's well behaved. Excuse the last picture being blurry. I still love it though.
