Default Impure Thoughts

ok, so I'm just back from Barbados where I was doing some diving and snorkeling.

I spent hours mere inches away from many of the critters we all cherish in our little slices of ocean (oh, the Tangs !!).

The temptation to grab a net and BRING 'EM ALL HOME was overwhelming !!!

I feel so.....dirty.

Ah well....had I given in I'd likely still be at the airport filling in forms to get the fish into the country.

Swimming with the fishes we all try so hard to attain would be amazing hahahah.

If I lived in Australia or Hawaii or the Caribbean, I'm not sure I'd have a tank. But the flipside is I'd be in the water every dang day at every chance. As much as I love having them in my home, it's way cooler being in theirs.
