My wonderful fiance got me an aquarium for Valentine's Day! :) Actually, I don't have one yet, but he told that's what he's getting me. He had to get my input before buying anything. We're going out tomorrow night to look at one. I originally considered a 55-gallon, but saw a 75-gallon on Craigslist that looks pretty nice. Fingers crossed!
So, I'm back in school again, which is going well so far, and I have a job! Woohoo! I'm working at my previous employer again, and happy to have something to do, though they're keeping me pretty busy.
I worked at the aquarium yesterday. I've switched exhibits again, and I'm now taking care of a bunch of different fish--sharks (small ones), rays, lion fish, eels (gah!), clown fish... I also have to feed a couple of the sharks by hand. The first time I did it, I was a bit freaked out. The male will take it out of your hand without a problem, but the female is neurotic. She spins around in circles, and you have to practically follow her around and put it in front of her nose before she'll take it. The biologist I'm working with thinks it might be a neurological thing, but he says she's healthy and seems happy. I felt the teeth of the male when I fed them yesterday, lol.
I've finally gotten used to fish guts, I think. I can cut up fish without feeling all squirmy inside.
