Updates on the Life of a Koudo

Following 
zabercat lead, here's what's been going on lately.
In June, I started at Walmart. Yeah yeah I know. Retail. However, I'm making more money than I ever have and am making friends. I was getting quite lonely in this area because I don't know how to meet people.
Earlier this month or late June, Mael's position at his job became full time which means even more money and health insurance for us, yay.
July 3 was a year since we were given our cat Nightfury.
My mom, grandmother, younger sister and little brother came to visit this past Tuesday and Wednesday which was really nice. I hadn't seen them since March. x_x We visited with each other a lot. On Tuesday they brought KFC for lunch and my mom brought me a belated birthday turtle cake. On Wednesday, more visiting was done and we had lunch at Giovanni's.
Yesterday, I showed my artwork to the guy in charge of cake decorating at Walmart and he immediately told me to come back and started having me practice making roses out of icing and he thinks I could do the job. So....instead of stocking stuff, I may have an art related job and be a cake decorator soon. My sister in law owns her own cake shop and is a talented cake sculptor. This guy is the one who trained her when she first started cake decorating.
I also have had to save betta fish two days in a row. First, people fed all the fish we had and not only that, some genius put one fish in with another and they obviously fought because a gorgeous black and blue betta had bits of fin lying on the bottom of his container. Fortunately a coworker was able to change out the water and he seemed fine yesterday. Then.......yesterday I found someone had fed one of our fish /again/ and the water was dirty looking and a manager thought he didn't look good. So the same coworker and I took him to the back and she changed the water and then I handled a fish for the first time and transferred him into the water-filled foam cup while the water in his dirty container was changed. He seemed more lively when he was put back into the container after it had clean water in it so I'm hoping he makes it. Can't believe people have the gall to treat these fish the way they do. People should never feed fish that aren't their own. They have a certain amount of times that they can be fed and there's no knowing if they're going over the limit. Just makes me mad the way people fool around with the lives of living things like that.
Oh hey, I'm past 20,000 pageviews. Nifty.

As for feeding the fish, some stores don't adequately feed theirs, if they even feed them at all. Whoever is doing the feeding is probably just trying to be nice ^^;
