One fish, two fish...

 You know the story, the one by Dr. Seuss, about the fish. The one fish, the two fish, the red fish, and the blue fish. We've all read it. Or had it read to us.

 

It was one of my favorites. And I've decided that since I'm a grown up now and can no longer legitimately read the book to myself, that I should just live the book. That's right, I'm going to assemble the case of characters and then let them act out the book. 

I have a bad history with fish. I particularly remember having a tank full of goldfish - like over twenty but less than thirty. The first day I had them, several died. The second day, several more died. Then they died off one at a time until I had two or three. Those two or three thrived for several months until a Clueless phone (you remember those) ended up in their tank. I didn't put that phone in the tank, but I sure know who did. His name is Albert. He is on my list. Along with the boy who put this scar on my left cheek. They better watch out.

Despite my fish-related failure in the past, I've decided to move forward with my plan to bring my beloved book to life. 

Meet Gus.

He is a boy fish and the first fish that I have acquired. He is not part of the screen actors' guild so I got him for cheap. His past performances include the stage production of Jaws and Finding Nemo. His also done some made for TV movies which include It's a Fishy Life and Gone with the Waves.

I couldn't be more excited about this new interpretation of a timeless classic and hope you'll consider joining in all the fun!
