Paco Taco...?

Sunday, August 12, 2007



So Jarom and I inherited a cobalt blue beta fish named Paco from Scott and Megan. He has been dubbed the fertility fish. One night he was particularly crazy and jumpy and was swimming around in a frenzy. Wondering what was wrong with him I voiced my concern out loud. "I wonder what's wrong with Paco..." I mused to Jarom. Without missing a beat he answered (Jarom, not Paco), "He realized we've broken his streak." Poor paco, we will have to find a new nickname for him, how about Paco the frenzied fish, or Paco the fantasic fish. I'll get back to you. Anyhow, I am smitten. He eats his dried fish food like he's a shark, sneaking up on the lifeless bits of worm and attacking, while swinging his head around savagely. He is also incredibly nosey and stares in our direction when we are in the kitchen, the living room and when we come into the apartment. I love him. Thanks Scotty and Megan!
