my day started out pretty crappy as i was up most of the night being sick, but it eventually came around to a fairly good end:

i added some plants and two new fish to my box of water. the plants look really cool, they're as tall as the box, and add a nice sense of verticality. the fish are awesome. they're silver tipped sharks but look just like catfish - they have long whiskers like catfish and are the same long shape. i've named them 'pseudo' and 'quasi', because they are sharks that look like catfish. this brings my fish total to 10. tom and dick (harry died), bonnie and clyde, dex, versace and gautier, pseudo and quasi, and my congo tetra is currently nameless.

i went to pub quiz tonight, and our team tied for third, but lost on the tie breaker question. the newspaper photographer was there, and got pics of my table; he took our names down so maybe i'll get all recognized in the paper and stuff :).

i was inspired by jessie's blog this morning, and created some art while i was at work today.. i'm fortunate that the job i have combines both art and history so i get to indulge both passions at the same time.

any suggestions for the congo tetra fish name????
