12. The kids definetly count as animals.....
...and the aquarium sounds like a lot of work. We were going to get one at one time, but the more I researched it, the more intensive the upkeep sounded....:shrug:

29. The aquarium is a lot of work
At first, until the water is right. We had wonderful water until we put fish in it, then the ammonia jumped up, then it was nitrates. We've finally got it set. The real kicker is, there's a ten gallon tank in my sn's room too, but no fish in it yet.

10. Have you ever walked in on him...
...wearing a velvet cape, holding a crystal ball in one hand and his junk in the other, masturbating furiously to the strains of "Kill the King?"

If not, he's no REAL gamer.

20. 2 dogs, 2 cats, and too many fish!
I've got a betta at work and one at home. Also a 29 gallon aquarium with 3 platys and 5 or 6 mollys, 2 algae eaters and 2 catfish (to eat the babies that seem to come once a month).
Then there's Rambler, the pug; Wynston, the beagle/dachshund mix; Q, the black lazy cat; and Mustang, the baby who is fondly referred to as That Bitch by my husband.
A big happy family!
