Six things make a post

[ileliberte]

1) I am fish-sitting for a housemate and thought I'd killed it when I came home last night and found it unmoving at the bottom of the bowl. Apparently that's how fish rest and my panicked moving around of the bowl only disturbed it. But seriously, how would I know? I only eat the damn things, I've never observed one for longer than a few minutes :/ It's kind of cute when it eats though.

2) I am currently drawing:
a) Wee!Dean and wee!Sam trick or treating as Batman and Robin in semi-homemade costumes (almost done)
b) Santana in a Dalton uniform (hopefully hot)
c) Kurt, Mercedes and Blaine out walking in the snow (schmoooop)

3) If the comm is called Kurt_Blaine, putting "Blaine exists" in the header as a spoiler for fics is only funny the first couple of times. It's really annoying the bajillionth time I see it. It's a comm called kurt_blaine! Of course Blaine exists! /irrational peeve

4) leyna55's Yuletart art is gorgeous. Go admire it here.

5) Trekreversebang will open shop on Monday *goes to work on new FAQ*

6) I love my new icon.

Floating belly up is the preferred demise position in fish. Or side floating, depending on their center of gravity.

I'm a pro at this. Tried to resuscitate my first goldfish at the age of 12-ish by running it back and forth through the water to force water through it's gills. There was a positive first response as demonstrated by self motility for several minutes, but the long term prognosis did not support the resuscitation effort.

I really hate to consider that this single event colored my life to the extent I went on to embrace respiratory therapy as a career choice. I prefer to blame my early exposure to Star Trek and 'Bones' McCoy for that.

Aww, your poor fish. Good to know what exactly to panic at, though.

Haha, I guess it's kind of a toss-up at what's more likely to make people look askance at you, career decide by trauma from pet fish or Star Trek geekery. I suppose you can change it up depending on the audience :D

- Er, I don't know anything about keeping fish alive either but yay for it not being dead. :)?

- More art from you always = yay!

Haha, yeah. Hopefully it stays alive for the rest of its stay over in my room too.

Santana in a Dalton uniform? YUM. I seriously cannot wait for that! :D

Almost done, hopefully it measures up to the anticipation :D
