Sweet ^_^ making me want one now! Ah well.. maybe when I move out.
I'm currently looking for a new tortoise vivarium, mines not small but I'd prefer bigger so I can make it look cool.

I woke up with a bad migraine. Nearly 8 hours later, I got two shots to fix the nausea and pain. But then I felt faint- blood pressure change, I guess, from the shot... But i feel better now. Whew!

I was wide awake super-early, couldn't sleep cuz I knew the lamps for my new light fixture were coming on one of my orders today. Kind of lame, but I was just so wired about it. Work was excruciating cuz all I wanted to do was go home and set them up. They are sooo worth all the research and waiting...
Got my new heater too, so so now all I need is fish...I can't get Valentini puffers out of my brain, even though I want corals and they may not be reef-safe...
I also went and checked out the valentinis at a LFS and they had a blue spotted box fish. Stunning, absolutely stunning. Breathtaking even... Damn I need to win the lottery :-)

The Blue spotted is relatively small in the world of boxfish, IMO. I think it would be pretty affordable, actually... More affordable than most boxfish at least! =D

Don't we all? Need to win the lottery, I mean.

Let's see... Today I woke up a little late with about 3 1/2 hours of sleep. Struggled through school, unfortunately that also included a french quiz, and my memory wasn't so good... 95%. >.<

Anyway... I stayed on TPF most of the day as well as researched a few different anemones and their symbiotic relationships to certain clownfish species. Pretty interesting.

I procrastinated a fair bit, and now have to finish a pastel drawing titled "still life," a ELA comic strip, 13 ELA questions and a journal entry.... Great. :/

I went to school, at lunch, went to the barn, rode a bucking horse which screwed up my back, had dinner at my dads, then went to meet new pet sitting clients. The daughter asked why each time they go away they get a new person x_x. Lets hope I can put an end to that. Now I should be taking a bath but I'm about to start sorting soybeans. And some of you doubted my aggie-ness and experience with soybeans in particular ;)

LOL, Brent, it was a $200 fish and quite big! I tend to allow a lot of space rather than follow minimums and IMHO he would *not* have had enough space in a 90g... But when I win... :-)

Woke up with a really strange dream....

You know how those book / cd / dvd clubs keep sending stuff you didn't ask for? In this dream I was part of a fish club that did the same thing and I ended up getting dinged for $350 for 2 arowana that I couldn't afford to pay for. I decided to keep one and sell the other one. I was reserving the 210 for a puffer (or some puffers) so I had to put the arow up top.

I have always wanted an arow but could not afford one I liked. Then, I got a PM today that South American Puffers might be coming my way, just for the bottom section!

STRANGE!!

Haha, well, I didn't actually mean for the 90g. I was just saying it was affordable (with regards to tank upkeep, size, etc.).

Reading my post back it does sort of sound like it... Shows how careful you've got to be on here with your typing, not being able to add the emotion you do through your actual voice by common day literary voice.

Meh.

Yep, that's a problem of mine. I'm much nicer in real life. I think I word things too bluntly and I don't have the skills to read it the way others would. I work on it but...

Indeed. I read the things I post as they sound to me, but being the author of said post you already know what you mean by it thus making it difficult to spot any inaccuracies/sarcasm/crudeness etc.

Well today I didn't do anything really.. read lots of the 4th twilight book, packaged some more ebay stuff, waiting for my prom dress to end now in 30 mins, it's up to £125 at the min woo.
Watched TV.. that's it >_<
2 of my cherry shrimp died today for no reason that I know of. The rest are ok though.
