dick and bert
no, sillies, not the twins commentators - my new fish!i bought two goldfish yesterday, though neither of them is actually gold. dick is tanish with a black stripe and bert is white with an orange stripe.
i also had to buy a new bowl (the one i had looked a little small for two fish [even the tiny 12 cent ones], so while i was deciding on which one i wanted, the guy said he'd go scoop out 2 fish for me.
'no!'
'no? oh. they have to be different so you can tell them apart and name them?'
'exactly.'so i bustled after him and picked them out. i think he found me comical, seeing as i'm old and concerned about naming them. but i'm sure the men they were named after would be proud. :)

i'm sure they would :) -- did you have a fish before dick & bert? b/c i don't remember ever seeing fish at your house...
it's been a long time since i've had one - probably not since undergrad (when i had the wimpiest siamese fighting fish ever, andre the giant, who was scared of his own shadow).
i figured you'd want me to let dick and bert know about dick and bert. i don't quite know what to say to them, though.
i haven't told dick and bert about dick and bert, but i have told dick and bert about dick and bert
very cute :) -- how'd they react when you told them?
they swam
mine
hobsis, it was much more fun not knowing! ;)
i agree
how do you know what i meant by 'mine'?
good point
maybe you should start specifying like scout did
