Quite sorry for the lack of posts--I've been recuperating from the most traumatic experience of my life. I'm sure it was yesterday--yes, it was. I know this only because I noticed that the blonde human was feeding us more than usual yesterday, but I'm not complaining. I really hate it when she tries to WATCH me eat. I mean, sure I know I'm a fascinating being, and all...but I don't think she'd be very comfortable if someone was watching her chew her food and digest it.
On the subject of food, I'm quite pleased that she's decided to switch to feeding us flakes instead of bread crumbs. Xiao Kou tried to eat some last week, and he almost choked. I would've liked to perform some sort of Heimlich maneuver, but alas. I have only fins.
Anyway, on to the traumatic experience. Xiao Kou and I had just finished our latest pooping contest--He's rather skilled at making long chains of poop--when all of a sudden, the blonde one grabbed my life. Well, almost. She stuck a net inside of our lovely, albeit poop-infested, waters and scooped me up into the air. THERE WAS SO MUCH AIR HITTING MY GILLS, I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO SUFFOCATE. Actually, I was suffocating for a bit, and no matter how hard I flopped, I couldn't get any water (I found this a little strange from the water vapor phenomenon I'd read about on the underside of the house). She made a few strange noises as she held me, and promptly dropped me into an eerily shiny bowl. There was no way I could see outside of the bowl which was extremely unnerving. I darted around as fast as I could, but couldn't escape the infernal shiny bowl. A few agonizing moments later, after Xiao Kou, the poop master, was placed into the bowl as well, the Blonde one plopped us back into the house. Except this time, the water was clear, and the vestiges of Xiao Kou's feces had been removed. I guess that was nice. I'm starting to miss the other human--the smiling one. She was nice. I liked the way her eyes almost dissapeared when she saw me.
Well, I suppose I'll let Xiao Kou say something if he wishes.

Hi. I'm the dumb one. The blonde one put me into this weird bowl thing, and I was like "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! HAHAHAHA! *snort*" She's so dumb. Except for the fact that I'm the blonde one.

Hello, my name is Da Shan. This name might strike you as odd, as I am quite the opposite of what it really means (Big Mountain).
But that's quite alright, for I am a goldfish. Today was my first day in a new dwelling place. A bit shoddy at best, but it'll do. I made an acquaintance with another fish named Xiao Kou. We've played a few games together that fish often play; Swim Around in Circles, Stay at the Bottom, Respirate, and my personal favorite, Catch the Small Particles That Fall From the Surface.
My human is quite a strange one. I suppose I've grown to tolerate her. Anyway, we took a few photos, and I must say...they do emphasize my good side. Yes, they're rather flattering. Alright, I believe Xiao Kou would like to say a few words.

Hi. Umm...My name is Xiao Kou, that means Little Mouth. I have a friend, I think. His name is Da Shan. He looks like a big mountain. He likes to eat mountains from the sky. It's his favorite game. He also likes to look at the green things floating above, asdo I. It is very amusing to look at green things floating above, we pretend they are clouds. They make shapes. My favorite game is Fighting for Food because Da Shan is so bad at this game; I always win. Umm...I like to pretend I am sleeping, and then wake up and then surprise Da Shan and make him fly around the cage--I means wim around the cage. I also like to talk to my other friend, Ginger who likes to follow me around. I only see her if I look at he side of my cage, I don't know why but I really like her. She only eats or poops when I do. I like Da Shan a lot better, though. Today, there were scary people looking at us. I don't know what they were doing but they had a big machine and they were pressing buttons, and tapping on the cage. It was so scary. It made me want to cry. OOOHOOWWAAHOOOOOOOOHH. I like to sing.
