Saturdays....

the weekend is the time I look forward to... such is the time now... in the past even when i was busy there was some play everyday... some entertainment..
now i just come home from work and walk my buddy and then feed him and then feed myself and the evening is over.. nothing more to do..

weekends are times when i wish i had a few friends to go out with or maybe get together and have a few drinks over a game of poker or a movie.. but times are such that i have no friends remaining.... everybody is so busy in their day to day lives that there is no time left for them.. i understand...

saturdays are great!!... or actually were great.... were a lot of fun.. now theres nothing to do on saturdays and so im here blogging.. sharing my feeling with you who are reading my rant and rave...

today we had planned to go to this little restaurant-bar-pub all in one... me and some of my friends.... but now there always has to be somebody who is the game changer.. so because one of our friends wanted to go to Buffalo Wild Wings to see the KFC fighters beat each other silly, the whole plan was canceled...
we others could have gone out but then steven is not yet 21 so he cant go to BW3s and sit with us when we drink... and it was just me and Jennifer ....and the other ladies are making the excuse of it being too cold.. like we were gonna sit outside... shit... another saturday wasted..
Saturday!!

fish tanks

fish are the largest pet population in the US..
there are many many people who like to have fish as pets in their homes.. because fish are the easiest to take care of.. and once the nitrogen cycle has been set then theres no looking back...
except there are regular water changes and the cleaning and everything that could be a pain.. but depends on what size of a tank you have..

i have a 75 gallon fish tank and have two filters on the tank.... one is the Penguin 350B power filter for upto 75 gallon tanks... then link can be found here [Next Tag] and an Aqua Clear 110 ..the link is here [Aqua at Amazon] these two filters do the job very well... and then I have a air pump and a water heater which is at about 78F for my tropical aquarium..

used to have a variety of fish in my aquarium.. now theres only two angels remaining... and when they go Im going to set up a cichlid tank...
keeping fish has many advantages...
1] they are easy to take care of
2] they are so pleasing to look at
3] research says that children with fish tanks in their houses/appts score better on their SATs
4] the smooth movement of the fish in the tank creates a calming effect on ruffled feathers..so next time you have had a bad day at the office, or a bad day at home try sitting in front of your fish tank and just looking at the fish...

here's a link to two great websites that have a lot of information for fish enthusiasts both seasoned and newbie..
Aqua Fish Net

Versa Aquatics


I hope you get a fish tank soon... its fun
here's a picture of one of my angels
