team romania (see my go train saga in a previous post if you don't know who i mean) has decided that living in canada w/out her new husband is too hard. so last friday we awkwardly stood around the water-cooler and drank wine and wished her farewell. i silently rejoiced that the only person i will have to listen to in the car on the way home now is the CBC's matt galloway (the perfect man so says sarah) but...it couldn't be that easy no.... she left her fish. her fish is now mine. i was informed that i was allowed to name it "red" (wow thanks for the options there....) and it could live in my office. i hate fish. i never had a fish as a child - never wanted one. i don't find them soothing or cool. there is no one else at my work who doesn't have a fish on their desk already so i'm stuck with "red" - and "red" is stuck with me. red hides behind his/her little plastic tree...

"So long and thanks for all the fish!" Or in your case, just 'thanks alot for the fish.'

We have a few people at my office who have fish tanks on their desk too. What's with that?

The only fish I like is a nice plate of salmon sashimi.
