midgeling: life in a shoe.

Okay, I have had a weird week. This week was spent coming to terms with the fact that our beloved kitty most likely was attacked and killed by raccoons and is not ever coming back. Then I got a surprise flashback from a whorish nightmare from my past who tried to destroy a very important part of my life. Then it looked like one of my goldfish that I have had for almost 4 years was going to die from a parasite attack brought on by a new fishy addition (who ended up dying). He was just drifting around the bottom of the tank not eating and barely moving. His fins were all droopy. I was worried.

So I prayed for my fish. Part of me felt stupid for asking for such a trivial thing. It's just a stupid goldfish. God has much bigger things to be concerned with. But I really didn't want to lose him as well. It's been a rough week and I just didn't want one more thing I loved to get all tarnished and ugly.

Imagine my surprise when I woke up this morning and saw this:

He looks pretty good, eh? See? Prayer works. Even when it's something dumb like a sick goldfish.
