My Fish Died

So, I think it was really cold and my fish died today. I noticed that "rybka" (fish in Russian) wasn't eating, I changed the water a few days ago and it was finally swimming. It was a crown fish that I got from a Russian friend a year and a half ago. I suppose in fish years that might be a long time, since everyone has told me that they've only had beta fishes for months rather than years.

Although, I know that it was just a fish, I still shed a couple tears for it. I suppose I put more into the situation that what it really is. I got it from a friend that I haven't spoken to in 6 months and maybe I was hoping to be friends with her again. I guess as of now, since the fish is dead that maybe we will never be friends again.

This friend I speak of were friends when we worked together, but I quit that job in August. I suppose the fish can also signify that all the pain and anguish from that job is far behind me with recent events in my life. I couldn't be happier with my current situation with the opportunities that have come into my life. I've come along way from where I was when I was working in the tax industry and I'm doing so much more with my fashion business.

I am just sad that my fish died overall and for today I'll just remember how I liked stressing it out to do that expanding gill thing it did. In retrospect, maybe it didn't really like that, hehehehhe.

My girl day!

So, the husband is out of town for Superbowl Sunday and I have the whole house to myself. Well, other than the dog who hasn't moved from the couch since breakfast, I still have the bedroom, my sewing room the kitchen, all three bathrooms that I will probably use all of them! Hahahaha, I'm gonna do all the things I can't really do when there is a man in the house. You know girl stuff! I have a client coming over, but after that I'm going to put on "Pride and Prejudice" the one with Kiera Knightly in it and watch "Devil Wears Prada" after that.

I want to be famous so bad, I have a business meeting next week that I want to go through with little to no kinks. This deal will definitely get me more into the fashion industry, more so than I already am.

I'm getting there, everyday I work, work, work. I'm living, breathing, and sleeping fashion. This what I had wanted to do since I started sewing Barbie clothes, when I was 5. In the beginning of all of this my mom said to pick a back up and I did in accounting. As much as I am good at my part-time day job, I get distracted by all things fashion.

Hell, I might not even be a good accounting manager. I know for sure that I am a great designer! I was thinking of the next time I try out for Project Runway, since this year will be the 4th time. That I don't even care anymore if I get picked or not, it's just great to get real reviews from the gatekeepers of fashion.

The last time, I tried out I was pissed off, but then again I took what they said and I used it to move forward.
