Babies > a baby octopus! by
estherso, i dont know that this really counts, seeing as i didnt make it myself, that was God or no one or dragons or whatever you may happen to believe, but it was still really really cute, and i wasnt sure where else it would feel like it even remotely had a home besides on creations, and i wanted to show it off.
like i said, its just too cute.
i found him amongst some tiny anchovy fish things i was eating with my rice (maybe someone will know what im talking about, kind of gray-ish? all my life ive just called them "little fishies", which i dont think is the technical term for them), and i set him aside to examine later. upon said later examination, the conclusion was made that this was the cutest little octopus baby thing in the world (or maybe it was a squid? it looked more octopus-esque to me, but other people kept suggesting squid, i dont know...), and i took like five billion pictures and then couldnt bear to eat it anymore, due to the strong bond i tend to very quickly grow between myself and inanimate objects. anyway, my grandmother suggested just swallowing it in one go and getting it over with, but i couldnt stand the thought of my little friend dissolving in my stomach acids (i even named him "tacochanh, which is like "little squid" in japanese, sort of), so i kissed it gently on the head and slipped him down the drain, to hopefully go back into the water and be happy in his element again.
if anyone knows anything horrible that happens to things when you put them down the drain, dont tell me, i so badly do not want to know. im still sad that i had to get rid of him at all.
also, yes i am aware that its a dead dried octopus (maybe?), thank you. i just happen to be somewhat jet-lagged and very fond of octopi.
and another point of interest: its eyes look like sliced olives!
...well, i guess its not really that interesting a point, sorry for leading everyone on there.
but a point of something, anyway.
shut up im tired!
there is currently a sixteen hour time difference between me and my home! i dont even know what time it is anywhere anymore.
