Goodbye Brutus

[oceanangel01]

My fish of ten years, Brutus, died today.

It's the end of an era, the crumbling of a dynasty.

My mother urged me to run out and get a new fish. I don't have the heart. I need some time to mourn a bit.

I kinda want to know what he died of though. Anyone know someone who does fish necropsies?

Needless to say, this has been a bad year for me.

Oh! I thought he was getting better before. ;_; But ten years is a long time for a gold fish. He had a good life.

That's what everyone says, but it still wasn't long enough! :'(

Sarah says that she has never seen anyone take as much care of a goldfish as I have taken care of Brutus. That made me feel better, that I did what I could.

I'm still upset. I think I'll bake cookies tomorrow to help me grieve/relieve my depression.
