Greg has been taken away by PetSmart for the summer. He will be interning with their corporate office in Phoenix until August. I think he is helping with something that I will just quote, because I don't actually know what it means. "Process flows for a new delivery model". Whatever that means, something techie. Anyway he seems to be enjoying it. He began his first week at a PetSmart store in Tucson working as a store intern. This is something that all corporate employees are required to do to get the "store experience." He stocked shelves, bagged crickets, and scooped dead fish. He also came home with 10 "reject" fish. One normal size Black Moor goldfish (he was in the sick tank because he was small and the other fish picked on him), and 9 baby Mollys and Platys (small tropical fish, which were free because they were all babies). I think he is trying to fill the void left by the bird tragedy. This past week was his first week at corporate in Phoenix and he came home with a 6 gallon aquarium. So now we are official fish owners. I didn't think it would happen like this, that we would get married and then own pets, but I don't think you can consider wildlife taking over our patio and Greg's "perks" at work, a real investment in pets. We decided to name the baby fish after some of my sister Molly's Chinese students. I read her blog and loved the names. We have Goober (he is the big goldfish, not one of her students, he just looks like a Goober), Bloria (my favorite), Shetty, Set'n, Toyota, Silly Cow, Evander (also not one of the students, but he has two black eyes, so Greg went off of that, Holyfield.) Last, but not least we have the triplets. Three little white fish that look the same. We figured it was pointless to name them individually because we can't tell them apart, so they are simply "The Triplets". Thanks Molky for the inspiration.
Anyway, good times at the Taylor home. If you feel that I scrimp for material, you are right. What can I do? If I posted my feelings on things, my sanity may be questioned. But all in all life it good. Hot, it is currently 102 degrees, but life is good. Especially on the weekends when Greg gets to come home.
