The last week or two has been quite rough for me.... I've been working some pretty insane hours and I've not been feeling too well. It left me questioning why I bother doing anything anymore.... Seems like no matter what I do I'll never really make a difference and probably always be taken advantage of......
..... then tonight I was doing an inventory count on fish food and I had my laptop just outside of the fish room and I heard a mother who had who two daughters in there start saying "Goldfish are the most misunderstood fish....." .... Then I remembered. See, I wrote up little tags and classifications for each tank that we have so that people know what fish they can put together as well as some general tips with the fish. Goldfish got their own classification and I wrote a short little paragraph explaining the things that people don't realize about goldfish.... I looked in the room and saw her reading it to her daughters and you could tell they learned some things that they never knew.....

.... Then I remembered... maybe I am making a difference to someone....

What a day.... go into work and get told that something is wrong with our central system in the fish room which controls the filtration for 75% of our tanks.... the pH was below 6.0 (dont know exactly because test kits don't test that low) and ammonia was up at 4ppm.... for those who don't know, THATS BAD.... quite a few tanks had ich problems..... so was the next few hours of my life....

then the male cockatiel I have been trying to tame decided to bite my lip.....

and THEN our sun conyur decided to bite my cheek and leave me bleeding slightly for a minuet.... really, its an experience......

Honestly tho.... I had a good day.... this morning I was feeling really crappy but things turned around.
