Misadventurous Melissa

Everyday is an adventure, or misadventure as the case may be. It is the latter that makes for the best stories, inspiring the name of my blog. I'm a nurse and an attorney (and way too silly sometimes). I am retired now. WELCOME to my blog! This is a work of fiction inspired by true events. The patients I refer to are a patchwork quilt of various patient's problems mixed together. If you think you recognize someone, you are wrong. These people do not really exist.

Dave

I just found Dave, the fish, dead. He was lying out of the water in a tangle of aquatic plants. I don't know if he got trapped and suffocated or if it was a natural death.

Dave was a solid, silvery white, six inch baby koi. Of my fish, he was the most outgoing and friendly, so it seemed suitable for him to be named after Dave Goodman. I know that it's just a fish, but I still feel so depressed.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

There can be only one.

Dave, if this is what happens to pets named Dave, then there will be no more. NOW, I find out that there can only be one. (sigh...) :)

Thank you, Running2ks
