Bored and thinking how..

[Lampshade]

I made a fish savings account. I save a bit from each pay cheque and use it for everything fish related. Seems to make me feel better about buying big things, because I know I can't do it often :P

[Reefer Rob]

My fish savings account and my regular savings account are the same one

[lastlight]

I normally think... what could the kids or wife have had if I hadn't spent another chunk on fish. I have to balance the guilt with the 'fun'.

how fun can be used to describe pruning valonia from the tank every night on a step-stool is beyond me

I personally stopped taking the wife with me to LFS because she can be worse then me, she will she something that she really likes and I have to get it.

I also have a saving account for my tanks, its in my back pocket and the wife doesn't get her hands on it most of the upgrades I have done and are currently doing are saved for by building stands and setting up full tanks for people that have no clue how to build one. Then I have to teach then how to care for it properly to the best of my ability.

Thought you were going say, so she had no idea what you were spending on it.

So now you can give lessons and charge by the hour.

Due to my job not allowing me to smoke those "skinny cigarettes" anymore. Gotta spend my money somehow.

I don't mind helping new people out after the tank is up & running as long as its not one of those that call every single day because they think they seen something in the tank or something at a LFS, brought it home & have no idea what it is.

Well I don't Drink or Smoke so there is money for an expensive hobby.

OK maybe I drink now and then, but its usually well I am sitting in front of my tanks.
