World War Fish

Ratatouille died sometime last night. Now Pepper is alone. There’s Zoey, but rats and rabbits don’t play well together. And I can’t find any of my dojo loaches – I hope they come back from wherever they teleported to. How can three fish disappear – or maybe they got disintegrated from those war of the worlds aliens. Thank Lochness they’re only in the tank.

Or maybe … they’ve partnered with the aliens to take over the world! When the loaches return we’re all dead.

Last weekend while watching Never Seen Again, Dre asked, “Mom, what would you do if I went missing?”

“I’d repurpose your bedroom.”

“Damn. Ok. You wouldn’t even look for me.”

“I always wanted you gone. I don’t care how you go.”

Sometimes I find myself saying; I don’t have time for … Lately, I stop midsentence because I know how much time I waste – Since writing Viral, it’s become even more apparent. I waste time:

Looking for something to watch on all those damn streaming platforms
Playing mobile games
Going down internet reading rabbit holes

There’s lots for me to do; I don’t wanna be wasting time anymore!

I have two things I am working on, and I can’t wait to show you. Dee is supposed to come by Sunday to help with the original work that needs Photoshop, and there’s another I started earlier today that I’m super in love with, but it needs refining/touch-ups.

Worked on my Twilight Zone-type script even, I did! Yay me! But draw I didn’t. This week for sure I am going on my artist date. BTW: I don’t know what happened, but my mic stopped working – I wanted to try reciting How Well We Go Together and the system wouldn’t recognize it. I have one more thing to try.

You should sign up for self-defence classes at Fish w/ Sticks!

Be careful! The next time you try to bite one, it’s gonna rain down a massive beating on your ass. Everyone’s gonna laugh cause you got beat by a fish stick! And you can bet people are gonna whip out their phones – it’s gonna go viral.

Then you’re gonna lose your job because who wants to work with someone who gets beat up by fish when they’re not even in the ocean! Loser!

🎶 They’re all gonna laugh at you. They’re all gonna laugh at you. 🎶
