Looks like it's been a bit since my last entry, but there's just not
been too much going on around here. My fiddler crabs are doing fine..
I've yet to lose a single one, cept for the one that was eaten by the
red crabs which I returned months ago. The guppies are another story.
I'm on my 4th pair. I'm not sure why, my water quality is within good
limits, maybe they're just short-lived. I never have to worry about
fishing out bodies, though... crabs are excellent scavengers. Pounce on
the fish almost the instant they stop moving. Never seen them attack
the live ones.
I went to PetCo the other week for some new
guppies. There was a cute, very young TG girl working in the fish
section. Funny, when I applied to that exact same store for a summer job about 15 years
ago, the guy told me they couldn't hire me unless I cut my hair and lost
the earrings. Guess times change. She was envious of my hair. She
was wearing a copper-colored wig with really big corkscrew curls that
made me think of Little Miss Muffet. I didn't say anything about her
TGism, though. Even though I was 98% sure she was TG, if I said
something and was 2% wrong, imagine how bad that'd make a girl feel. I
usually err on the side of caution, which of course means I seldom say
anything at all.
Today I returned an extra garden hose I didn't
need to Home Depot. The lady at the returns desk instantly zeroed in
on my nails, which are slightly long at the moment. She was amazed, all
'I never seen nails that clean and white before! Wow. Clean, clean
hands.' I just smiled, utterly bewildered, and waited for my receipt.
I
had a nice-enough 4th of July. Shot of some fireworks with a friend
and his daughter. There sure was something dead and stinky off in the
grass at the side of the road. Too dark to tell what it was, but bleah.

Dolly's Movie Recommendation of the Day: I went to see Wall-E the
other day. I highly recommend it. Although the ending part was a
little too typical animated-action finale sorta thing, overall it was
quite good. The loneliness aspect I could certainly relate to. And it
features one of the sweetest on screen romances I've ever seen on film.
