That's My Mamma... This is sick

No literally.. This fish is sick..
It would seem it is not just Me .. Mr R.. and Now Mamma that are feeling under the weather...
My Dear Dear fish Joe Pesci is feeling mighty punk as well...

( File Photo of Joe Pesci in Healthier Happier days)



Some of you may recall the story of three fish..
(Not in any way remotely related to the biblical story of the loaves and the fishes)

If you missed that little gem and you are really bored you can read about it Here

After the sudden and tragic death of RichRod (the fish)
I am sad to say that perhaps another one of the Three Amigos may be heading for that giant porcelain bowl in the sky..

Yes my poor little Joe Pesci is not feeling very well.
How do I know?..
Well he is barely eating anything ( Not like him at all)

He is spending waaaay too much time tucked in between the rocks at the bottom of the bowl.

He doesn't really swim around the bowl like he used to but merely floats around kinda listless( Hmmm...Kinda sounds like me on a bad day)

He isn't making those cute little bubbles at the top of the bowl like he used to..
(Another riveting post you may have missed.. Don't panic it's Here)

Over all his coloring just doesn't look as vibrant.



Needless to say I am extremely worried..
I have tried just about everything..

I have changed the water more frequently
(Making sure to treat the tap water)

I tried different food
I even put his bowl next to Charlie Gibson's ... in hopes that seeing his old pal would cheer him up..

Nothing.

Here's the part where my Mamma comes in.



So I walked into the kitchen and I noticed that in Joe's bowl are floating hundreds of teeny tiny little white flecks.. I figured OH MY GOSH.. this is it!!!
He's molting or something.

But it is that very moment that I notice he actually looks a little perky (er) ... his fins are sprawled out and even seems to be interacting with Charlie Gibson..

Mamma comes over to the quarantined area and says..

"Yaaah.. de fisha he looka happy now No?"

I said

"Yeah.. he really does .. but I can't figure out what all that white stuff is floating in the bowl."

She said..

"I putta a Edrusin inna da watta."

Ah.... what?

"I putta a Edrusin inna da watta."

as she pulled a bottle of Excedrin from the cupboard.

"You put an Excedrin tablet in the water????"

"Yah.. I know if I no feela good I taka a Edrusin eh I feela gooda so I try for da lilla fisha too.. I see he almost dead anaway..so No Problema.."

* Blink * Blink ... I am rendered speechless.



Ironically...So far so good..

Who knows maybe I can work out some kind of endorsement deal with the makers of Edrusin...

Maybe Now you can see why I say I relate to the movie My Big Fat Greek Wedding..
In her case her father thought Windex healed everything..

For us... it's Excedrin..

That's My Mamma..
OH.. and Please keep Joe Pesci in your thoughts and prayers.


Thank You.
