Showers in Davis water Makes me feel Slimy
I got to work today. I switched fish from one tank to another. I made a little isolated mommy area with burlap for expecting mothers. Because apparently they like being secluded. And the burlap will hopefully allow the babies out so mommy doesnt eat them. Which apparently she likes to do.
Then I had booooring stats class. Then I went to the bike church, which was very neat. I fixed my bike. yay! I completely took off the front derailer. And then adjusted the back one so now I can reach the highest gear! yay for going faster!!!
Then the farmers market.
oh and my great sandwich.
it was on whole wheat sourdough bread. with balsamic vinager goat cheese spread that i made, and a little bit of hummus, that i also made. with a sliced and peeled tomato. lots of fresh basil leaves, and lots of melt in your mouth roasted eggplant. It was SO GOOD! I'm gonna make another for lunch tomorrow.
and last night I had a dream that my toenail fell off and there was a big gaping hole in my toe where it used to be. This is a semi-realistic fear because i stubbed my toe really bad and the nail will probably fall off. I've never had that happen before. most people say its not that bad but I have always been afraid of the idea. gives me the heebie jeebies.
and davis water is super duper basic and hard and when i wash all of the soap off of me in the shower i still feel like a slimy slug. it is hard to get used to.

Whatever happened with the Saga of the MacBattery?
(I never lost a toenail either.)
Congrats on fixing the bike! I love Bike Church. They have some friendly Ministers there. My bike peddle quit clicking when I rode it yesterday to the fax store so I'm good to go, too. Now working on LP's to get her going on a 10 speed "cruiser". I look forward to your showing me how to fix a derailer.
I sympathize about the water. Ick. Reminds me of Fallon showers. I could never get "clean".
Would you post a pic of the fish area you are working on? When I had guppies there was a cage available for sale that did the same thing you are talking about. Burlap sounds much better, if the space is enought for the fry to exit. How many fry does one mom spew out? How do you know if most of them are getting through the burlap?
MacBattery is still in the works. But I have kept my computer plugged in 24/7. Without my own mode of transportation it is hard to get someone else to go to Sac with me. But I have not forgotten about it.
My front derailer got fixed by taking it completely off. The back one got a tune up, which I guess i know how to do now. yay!
Not sure how the burlap works yet. We will see as time goes on, kinda like the screen tops and maggots :)
One mom spews a lot of fry, live birth too. And she stores sperm fromt he first mating so she can keep spewing as much as she wants. What a pest!
Just like guppy moms. My zebra fish used to just follow them around eating the fry as they came out. That worked for me at the time because otherwise it would have been an overpopulation study.
A few still survived to adulthood in the weeds.
