i think i will go for a walk, to buy carrots, the baby kind that is already washed and peeled

is it true that carrots are good for your eyes? i eat lots of them but i still wear glasses

somebody once said that carrots must be good for your eyes for the reason that you never see rabbits wearing glasses

that's not true, i had a rabbit once, it would hop around and when we tried to get it to hop into its cage it would cling to the rug and not move. then i would put my glasses on it, just for effect

also, i had a hamster who got depressed. it crawled into an empty juice can i put in its cage and would only come out to eat. we tried playing the radio for it and putting a mirror next to its cage so it would think it had a friend. none of these tactics worked. finally the vet told us to get rid of the juice can. we did, and it was fine from then on.

now i only have a fish, it's my daughter's really. sometimes i feed it, when she forgets. when it sees me come into the room it looks at me tentatively, and then swims up to the surface, just to see if i left anything. i did not know fish could tell people apart, but this one seems to be able to.
