They Do Glo!

It's not often that I'm surprised at work,
but this week.
Iwas.
And not in the 'ha I scared you!' sort of surprised.

How so?
Well, we sell these GloFish. Fish that have been genetically bred (not painted) to be brighter colors. Blue, Purple, Pink, Green, Orange. All neon shades. And apparently, under a black light they really are brighter.
I hadn't really seen it so I couldn't tell customers what they really look like as we had no black lights on our own GloFish, just the regular white lights.

Well, I came into work early this week.
And yah. You guess it.
Our tanks had black lights on them! O.o

Talk about weird. lol My coworkers now call that section of our store 'party central'
But yah. The fish actually do glow!
Well...the blue ones, not really. But the others YES!! They do! Crazy!

It's just...why now? Why do we have these lights?
No idea. But I think they're cool!
Even if they do make life a tiny bit more difficult for us.
As the tanks are darker, so it's harder to see the algae that could grow on the walls.
Plus, one of those tanks has Ghost Shrimp in them.
And if you thought it was hard to find them in daylight...they're much harder under the black light. lol

Still. It is cool! Very mesmerizing as well. ^^;;

Until you next read these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!

The Dream

I had a dream where a front sliver of my front tooth fell off leaving a thinner tooth with a triangle shaped v in the cent of it behind. I was devastated by this as I wasn't sure why it had happened.
Some others and I were traveling in a mountainous area when we came across this steep hill. It was a cone shaped hill though there was no point to the top of it. It had at least three distinct tiers with a giant waterfall that went down it. People would go on hikes, though it was treacherous as the path crossed back and forth the river/waterfall constantly. It also wasn't a 'two hour hike' but more like a all day hike. And my group tried to start it towards sundown. So needless to say we didn't make it that far. But there was this guy, a bit crazy, he looked like a nerd with glasses and crazy white hair, decided that he wanted to take away the enjoyment of the hike and destroy the place. How? Be changing what the water was. He wanted to make it into like a...whipped cream sort of thing, and he got me and some others (forcefully) to join up with him (blackmail) Only when we finally reached the top, one of the guys, a tall hulking dude...didn't pull the switch. Instead. He turned the bad guy in. Defeating him. So he would have to go back to jail. We made our way back down the mountain in a contraption made from used parts, but the guy..somehow had his glasses broken in the process -lost one half off the frames, and everytime I looked at him, the replacement for the missing frame got bigger and bigger. And it ended up being a sort of medieval focusing device where he had multiple lenses that he could move around (basically with his thoughts) so that he would be able to focus on whatever he wanted the frames would flip through to the right combination or right frame to let him be able to see it. He wasn't at all put off about being defeated either. He minced down the steps like a diva. And the bad guy went from being a guy to a girl. A crazy white haired girl with mincing steps in high heeled boots. Totally odd, but she did have style and personality. But focusing back on the bad guy who hadn't looked all that bad at first, he ended up getting placed in jail -after walking through a long line where you file Taxes and deal with the law. Both Villains and Superheroes would go there to do this.  He ended up getting a series of numbers tattooed onto his arm, they were meant to...control him in a way/punish him as each number was significant in some way to his 'history.' Only the guy made a number look like a different number and changed what his punishment would be. Not for the better, as he lost his memory and had no idea why people were after him, but that he ended up with ice powers that allowed him to look different from how he normally looked so that he was able to hide in plain sight....until too much heat melted his disguise away....

Then the unholy tones of daylight pulled me away....
and I became myself again. :)
