fish

It's a sad sad day for fish everywhere. I found my beloved twelve cent goldfish floating this morning.
In July of 2010 my fish Sir Walter Kinghorn died. I had only had him a couple days... i felt like a fish killer so i didn't get another one. but in August my friend decided that i needed to get fish a new fish and that she wanted one too! So we took a drive to Pet Smart. My friend picked out her fish first. In attempting to catch her fish with the net Pam was also scooped up! They were about to throw her back in the tank when I decided she was the fish for me! Pam was the cutest twelve cent gold fish you had ever seen!
I'll miss you Pam, may you rest in peace.

i had a wonderful surprise this morning! Ashely and Sam stopped by with a present for me :) A NEW FISHY :) i had told them yesterday how i was sad that Pam had died... so they had gone to walmart and bought me a new one! It was so nice of them to do that!
i love my new fish! His name, at first was Chuck, but he didn't fit it. I went to google and did some reasearch and came up with the name Pietro! He is named after the Italian poet and librettist. Pietro Antonio Domenico Trapassi or better know as Pietro Metastasio was born on January 3 1698 and was invited to Vienna as court poet by Charles VI. His 27 three-act librettos were set in more than 800 operas in the 18th and early 19th century by composers such as Antonio Vivaldi, George Handel, Christoph Gluck, Joseph Haydn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and Luigi Cherubini.
I thought this name fit him perfectly!!
I'd like to introduce Pietro! isn't he a cutie :)
