The Fish Bandwagon

Recently we all jumped on the "Let's have a fish" bandwagon. Mckay and Nicole spent quality time hand picking specific fish for each of us to name, and raise as our own flesh and blood. After the trying naming process was complete, we found em all a bowl and excitedly started our new life complete with the additions to our little family. 
The next morning we wake up, and BAM!!!!! THERE'S A DEAD FISH FLOATING ON TOP OF THE WATER! Day after day the fish continue to die...one...by...one. At this point we start to get a little freaked out. What is the problem with these fish? Are we really just pitiful parents? Or is there a fish epidemic going around? Turns out Jeff (Kelsey's fish) is a fish killer. He mercilessly killed his brothers and sisters and didn't even lose sleep over it. Who knows what he will do next or what he is capable of. At this point, no one is safe. We had to take immediate action.
With this new light shed on the situation, of course we were forced to put him up for adoption and hand him over to a family that could better address his needs. We stuck him in a bowl, wrote up the classiest note we could muster and dropped him off at the most eligible parents house, Apartment 11. We are now able to sleep fully through the night. From this experience, we have all learned that the "Let's have a fish" bandwagon is NOT the bandwagon that you want to be on.
