So Mel loves our pets more than I. I don't want pets, we have kids and that is plenty. But Mel says pets are good for kids so she gets stuck cleaning after them. She should make Reagan take care of her fish but doesn't for reasons not known to me.
Sunday night Mel is cleaning the tank when i hear "oh cr@p! oh no!" this was followed by "come help me". I amble into the kitchen to find her near hysterics. Seems the fish jumped out of the net and went down the garbage disposal.
We know from previous events that my fist is too big to fit into the disposal, plus that is not really my thing. I try to encourage her to grab it as she is the one to always put her hand down the disposal. Nothing doing.
Seems the Mel can't handle the fish feel. I strongly encourage her to no avail. She is all freaked out. Then I pull the Reagan card (it is her fish), and tell Mel how sad Reagan will be. Nothing doing. A shame right?
So I hit the switch for the garbage disposal. ok, I didn't but that would have been funnier than my ending. I end up bending the fish net and scoop it out on the first try (I am a pro, don't try this at home).
When I tell this story to Reagan, I will emphasize that Melissa wanted to hit the disposal switch and I stopped her.
