^{he's amazing and you know it LOL.
This my baby LEOnardo, who is going to be getting a major tank upgrade soon. Look at the poor baby, his nose touches the front of the glass and his tail touches the back. :(
I'm gonna be getting him anywhere between a 23-45 long tank. So he can finally have some friends ;o;
His last buddy died a couple of years ago, they were terrible to each other at first but then they became BFFS and cuddled and slept together behind a rock in the tank it was so cute. haha And now Leo can't even fit behind that rock, which makes him a sad panda. Only problem is, if I buy his buddies straight from the petstore he'll gobble 'em up cause he's my little piggy that will eat anything that will fit in his mouth. I bought the largest mystery snail they had at my LFS and he ate it LOL. Poor Mr. Mollusk.
ANYWAY. I'm going to be getting him some beautiful babies soon, that'll have to grow some before they can live with this fatty. I'm also going to use his current tank for my corys and get them some more buds, and getting a tank for my ghosties and getting them some more friends AND filling their temporary tank with female bettas. UGH. SO, I'm going to be uploading a lot of pictures of my darlin fishies soon. (I'm also getting a bearded dragon this summer, even though my dad absolutely does not want me to get one. FFFF even my mom says they're adorable and will help me take care of it)}OKAY, sorry for tl;dr. Basically this is a picture of Leo I took with my iPhone because he's a cutie.
^{In other news, my health has gotten so bad (my dad has compared it to when he had cancer, though GOD I HOPE I DON'T HAVE FREAKING CANCER THAT WOULD SUCK BALLS) that I've had to withdraw from this semester of college to get all better. Which basically means my doctor is like HEY LETS TRY THESE DRUGS AND SEE IF THEY WORK HURR DURR. sighhhh
But I'm planning on keeping busy. I don't have much strength now, but when I start being able to eat on my own (yes, I have no appetite at all, at school I hadn't eaten in a week until my roommate found out and started force feeding me) And I don't sleep anymore and my new meds make me a zombie, so I really can't do anything besides move from the bed to the couch to the toilet atm LOL I SUCK. But once I get at least a little better I'm going to clear out all the shit I don't need, maybe get an edgy "I'M SO SICK" haircut, and then working on my animals. Because taking care of something else helps me to forget about how sick I am and the self pity and depression and stuff.
I'm going to try to get a job at petsmart or petco and volunteer at an animal shelter, because I swear that was the best therapy ever. I worked for about a year at the wake county animal center when I was still going to school and it made me so happy to make the aminals so happy..}
DOUBLE TL;DR:
I am seriously ill and have had to drop this semester of college. WILL MISS YOU NCSU, but I gots to get better

OH, and in case you were wondering, Leo is a four-line pictus catfish, which unlike their spotted cousins get quite a bit larger, and have longer whiskers. They're a bit harder to find as well, I've only seen them at the LFS once. he likes to eat. everything.
