What is something that can always make you feel better?
Submitted by meehshell
Not to put too fine a point on it, but my friends. I've been lucky enough to have some of the best friends one could possibly hope for. Not those people who run at the first sign of trouble, but those that'll stick around and help you deal with it.
Specifically Wassy. She always seems to know how to make me feel better, no matter what the circumstances are. From just being there to talk to to surprise gifts just at the right moments. I dunno how she does it, it's gotta be some kind of a sixth sense or something.
That's not to say my other friends don't help either. But she always seems to know what to do to cheer me up when I'm feeling down.

Bubbles Bubbles Everywhere!

Just a quick post to share a new Betta development! I was hanging out watching the Olympics with Wassy (standard mid week get together) and I looked over at Fish to find that he had constructed his own little bubble nest.
Betta's create bubble nests to hold the eggs after they've been fertilized by the male during breeding. The male takes charge of protecting the eggs in the bubble nest that he creates by taking air from the surface and blowing bubbles to create a collection of bubbles at the surface of the water. Here's what it looks like from the top:
All of those are bubbles of air in the water.
I didn't think Fish would ever make one because the current is a little off. But, I'm glad he did because it means he's a pretty happy little fish and feels comfortable in creating a nest for himself. Unfortunately for him…there aren't going to be any Betta females wandering by that he can ask out.
