What If?

As I sat down at my desk, I couldn't decide what to write about for this blog.  I asked my roommate's boyfriend, Ethan, if he had any ideas.  He said I should write about having pets in our room.  Since we don't have any animals living with us, I thought that could be a little hard.  But then I thought, what if Emily and I decided to go to Wal-Mart and buy a fish!  We could put him in a little bowl and buy him all the fishy accessories, like colorful pebbles and fake coral to make him feel real big.  He would be named Guppy and everyone would love him.  But then, what if Guppy died?  I don't think Emily and I could handle it.  The funeral, the tears, and the heartache, none of that sounds fun to me.  I've decided a pet is a bad idea.  Instead we want to get plants!
