The other night we went to Fins, Feathers, Paws and Claws to pick up some catfood and check out their fish selection. We left with a bag of catfood, 2 tins of cat treats, 4 toy mice (Caligula’s Favorite), some tropical fish food, and two angel fish.
The tank is quite a bit more lively now, Angel fish are fun. We probably won’t be able to put other fish in there (except more algae eaters), since angelfish are semi-agressive, but that’s fine, they are pretty enough to keep us happy.
Caligula likes them too.
I finished reading “The Prophet” by Kahlil Gibran today. The book was recommended by my cousin,
Love one another but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other’s cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together, yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.
I’m going to need to find a nice copy to add to my library. It’s an older book, and the full text is available online: http://www.columbia.edu/~gm84/gibtable.html, but holding it in your hands while quietly sitting in a happy place is oh so nice. Why hadn’t I heard of this book before? Apparently it’s quite popular.
Going to put my pajamas on now. *yawn*
