I got given two of those 18th birthday keys today. They kind of reminded me of Sailor Chibi Moon's 'Key of Space-Time'.
I still don't really feel like an adult. But I expected that. I'm off to eat my cake now.

Sailor Moon kicks ass.... Outlaw Star is better, though.

Thank you Geoluhread!
I love Sailor Moon. Never watched the tv show (well not until I had the internet, but even then, not much), but I have four volumes of the little comic books and some dolls/plushes. They were kind of hard to get too, because Sailor Moon was pretty much non-existent over here.
I'd love one of Naoko Takeuchi's Sailor Moon artbooks though.

Happy Birthday 
Duncan ripped his tail on the bogwood so I had it out and replaced it with a smooth ornament . Now I have to treat the damn tank with Melafix to help it heal faster. Still, he's a happy little chap nonetheless, and his tank looks spiffy *is smug*

Well I can't count Duncan as he isn't exactly mine. The tank belongs to me but the fish is my mother's. I maintain the upkeep of the tank and the equilibrium of it's water parameters and biological cycle through water changes. Same as the other fishtanks.
I personally have 2 birds ( a budgie and a cockatiel ) , a rabbit, 17 fish and 6 shrimp ( 2 fish in one tank, 15 in the other along with the shrimp )

I hope to have lots of pets when I own a home. Right now I got two rats and a cat.
I bought a new cell phone today, switched companies but didn't keep the same number. I'm getting antsy waiting for it to activate :S But I love the phone, and that it has a low grade camera. I got it because the carrier I was with started charging for incoming text messages.

Yes they all have names. One group of 6 fish in the big tank are all the same so they have a collective name. THE BARBARIAN HORDE!!!!!

You're afraid of fish? How? They just..swim about and eat, and sometimes fight. Duncan would possibly alarm you . He swims right up to the glass and flares his gills! And waves his fins in a mad little challenge!

Thanks HP!
I think my fish thing stems partially from the fact that when I was a kid, my cousin took his goldfish out of its tank and threw it at me. It really disturbed me. I'm scared of most non-mammal sea-life, frogs/toads and slugs/snails too. I've had bad experiences with them too. I don't think I'd be able to cope at an aquarium.
Well, I got my exam results today. B in drama (with full marks in my performance! Heh, I made the examiner cry). I got a high B in art, which I'm pleased with. But I got a C in history- failed my Russia paper completely (I'm going to re-sit it hopefully) though luckily I did really well on the coursework for it (which I personally found a real struggle).
I'm alright with it all though.

My dental implant healing has puffed up my face, but it isn't tender anymore.
I can eat almost normally now. Hooray for steak! (slurp!)

*Looks down and sees a dead bird. He brings out his LP, and plays the Em chord. The dead bird is revitalized, and flies away* It was the passion of the Duane!

Funny story.
I work as a lifeguard at a waterpark. At the wavepool, I tell kids that are under 48 inches tall that they need to wear a lifejacket, and they are provided by the park. So, along comes a...little person. My friend and I, both at the wavepool, couldn't decide whether or not to stand him up next to the height stick and see if he needed to wear a lifejacket. Sooo, I called over my supervisor, figuring she'd tell me what to do. She didn't know what to do, so she radio'd to HER supervisor. My manager, Mindy, heard the call over her radio, and hopped into her Mindy-mobile with two other head honchos of the park searching for the midget. Why, you ask? Sweet ol' Mindy wanted to ask the man to be in the FREAK SIDESHOW for the park's month-long Halloween event.
How fucking rude is that?
