Kiss a Fish

Mom must have known how much I wanted a pet, because while I was at school, she got me a goldfish! She also got me a "goldfish starter set" to put the fish in. It's a goldfish bowl filled with food, gravel, "everything you need to take care of your goldfish", as it says on the label. The goldfish is a comet, three inches long! He's the perfect gold color, so I named him Forty-Niner, after the California gold rush forty-niners. I guess I'd better go and his bowl ready.
