Regular Member BigRedandBlindWillie Posted July 7, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 7, 2005 I wolk up this morning.. and for some reason it popped in my head that I havent been to the LFS for like a month!!! For the past year ive always been there at least two to three times a week, if not to buy something, then to look at all the cute goldies.... and just out of no where.... right when I wolk up... i was like OMG, I havent been in ages... The people at the LFS probably thought I died or something... because they always knew when to expect me!! LOL....... Whats gotten into me! Now I feel like I just HAVE to go because I havent been in a long time.... I guess that can be a good sign..... Im fully equiped with everything i need or could need. LOL.... and the longer I stay away.... the less pressure I feel to buy some of those cute goldies!! LOL..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member fishrpets Posted July 7, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 7, 2005 Ummm, I believe you've talked yourself into it.....you're going!!! I bet you haven't been because when you found your beautiful panda oranda you'd been looking for, you were satisfied for a bit! But still a visit every now and then won't hurt a thing! I went today, but I made myself not look at the goldies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member BigRedandBlindWillie Posted July 7, 2005 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 7, 2005 You know, I think your right! I had been going so often because I was looking for a panda butterfly... and once I found him... I kinda stopped going as much! LOL... I am pretty satisfied with the fish I have no. Their all perfect... I love them all.... and dont want to over crowd them.... LOL.. but yeah.. I do still need to go! I do really need to get the other stuff. BUT LOL..... im just so shocked I stopped going for awhole month!! Like, if I didnt go at least once a week, I was all anxious. But, I havent felt like that for awhile! HAHAHA... just shows how obsessed I am with my goldies. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member fishrpets Posted July 8, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 8, 2005 I know, I'm just as bad. I have gotten to where I am just slightly embarrassed when I see the workers there. You know they've got to be thinking....She's here AGAIN?!..... but I really don't care, I've got to have my fix!...and my babies always NEED something!

Guest deedeesue Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 I've been to 4 lfs today looking for the "perfect" fish! I know what you mean about being embarrassed by the store clerks, they look at me like Im crazy too Tomorrow Im going back to my favorite lfs after being there yesterday, "just in case" they got some new fish in we are hopeless addicts, I wonder if there is a 12 step program for this?

Regular Member Ranchugirl Posted July 9, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 9, 2005 we are hopeless addicts, I wonder if there is a 12 step program for this?? 358508[/snapback] Oh, paleeease! There could be a "step 242" program, and we would never manage! So, Jess, did you go? How can you stay away for a whole month? You know the remedy for that one, right? Get a few more pets, one of them I am sure needs some sort of food at least once a week. For me, one week its cat food, the other dog food, turtle treats, rabbit food, hay, fish food, etc. You gotta have a valid plan, girl! As for me, I found a newly opened pet store today (no goldfish yet, they come next week), and found a perfect little red/white ryukin at Petsupermarket. All in all, the day was good!

Regular Member ladyzee Posted July 9, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 9, 2005 oh man, and I thought I was the only crazy one who thinks a fun night out is spending it at the store looking for new stuff for my lovlies. It seems that everytime I go I'm either buying something for my tank, my mother's tank, or my friends' tanks. I'll tell you, pet supermarket loves me. I'm greeted by name there and everyone always asks how my fish are doing. *laughs* It's ridiculous when I tally up the past $600 I've spent and $450 of it was fish related.

Regular Member Ranchugirl Posted July 9, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 9, 2005 Lady, I think our parents would have loved us - no spending on clothes, movie tickets, going out for long nights with friends, nothing of the kind.... Only fishy things.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member ladyzee Posted July 9, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 9, 2005 Tell me about *laughs* so true. It's better spending it on fish rather than other things kids do nowadays. My dad kind of mocks me with the whole fish thing. "You don't have to change the water every day or even every week, only once a month" My mom on the other hand, loves coming home to see if I did something new with fish. The best surprise had to be the new 10 gal sitting in her dining room. She freaked out and was so happy. She doesn't have any goldfish though, she's not good at taking care of fish, they all die on her, so I bought her hardy little things that she's have to work at to kill them.

Regular Member TamtheLittleBlackMoor Posted July 9, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 9, 2005 That reminds me... They've gotten used to me, haha. There is this guy (he's soooo cute) that everytime I go in he talks about the newest shipment and such. I just oogle him, even though he's like 4 years older than I am. Even more frequent then him is an older guy who is always joking about the live tubifex I buy for the bettas, I don't even have to ask for them anymore he just laughs and gets them out of the fridge. He's always teasing and saying things like, "So how's that tubifex stew recipe going?" and, "I've heard they taste real good, you buy them alot, is that why?". Haha, it's always nice to know that other people get funny looks in the LFS too and that it's not just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Florissa Posted July 11, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 11, 2005 That is so strange, Jessica. I have not been to the LFS since I bought my house 2 months ago. I guess because I have so much other stuff to do and buy, but also I too have everything I need! I should go too though because they all probably think I died too!
