name my pets
meet my new pets.
they're not cats, aren't you excited?
they're shrimp. and they live in this very expensive paperweight called an eco-sphere.
"EcoSphere is a calming balance of earth, water, air and life—all parts of a working self-sufficient ecosystem that’s much more than science; it’s an original work of art. Makes a unique gift for those who contemplate the mystery of life on our planet and enjoy the serenity of nature. " (from the Brookstone catalog)
Anyway, my eco-sphere has 4 shrimp living in it, and they make perfect pets because they don't require me to feed, walk, love, or even remember them.
There's 1 big brown shrimp, which I've decided is male (because he's slow), 2 large red ones, and 1 teeny little red one. They need names, and I need help. I'm taking suggestions, so please...fire away. I'm leaning toward GOB for the brown one...

Dear Danger,
I think both you and your blog are excellent. You are clearly a very articulate and engaging person.
You should be working in DC as a TV producer.
Keep up the good work!

You should name the weakest one C.F. and then laugh a lot when it dies.

No, seriously. If you're naming one GOB, you have to name one Buster.
Some other shrimp names that I'm fond of:
Holden
Sylvia
