Don’t drink water too fast or you’ll drown, my mom used to say. I know, I replied. This morning, however, while drinking my glass, I happened to overhear my mom talking with my aunt. Can you believe it? Yeah, he slipped… Hoping to get some hot gossip, I tuned my ears. I’m serious, he fell butt-naked on the shampoo bottle. Of course I laughed my ass off, but the next thing I knew, water started coming out of my nose and… and I had become a fish. But seriously, I’m a fish now, like with the fishtail, the gills and all that weird stuff.
The good thing is I didn’t drown. In fact, I can’t drown now.
These days things have changed, my mom feeds me twice a day some suspicious-looking little brown orbs. At first, I was so depressed I couldn’t eat because it’s impossible to date looking like this, but they’re yummy, so I guess it’s not half bad.
Oh, about my cousin, the one who fell on the shampoo bottle: he got hospitalized. I’ve visited him a few times with my mom (by the way, I travel inside a small aquarium now). He’s doing fine (though, when my mom and my aunt left to talk with the doctor, I heard him say his ass still hurts like hell) and is expected to be released this Friday.
