GUPPIES

Logic and Emotion have been fighting for over a week now. I am done predicting there will be a clear winner, just going with the current one in the lead at any given moment. They are starting to compromise a bit though, which is making things a tad easier. Emotion decided around 10am on Wednesday that the only thing that would make the world better would be guppies. Logic didn't say no right away but decided to give more serious consideration to the idea before acting on it. Emotion wasn't happy because she wanted to leave work and get guppies at 11am on Wednesday. Together they managed to discuss (er, argue?) the pros and cons of guppies for a couple days. Eventually, after all the drama of Emotion whining "but its just guppies! All I want is guppies" and Logic asking for Emotion to be quiet (just for a second) so she could think this through, they agreed to get guppies. Logic finally agreed with the stipulation that the tank for guppies be purchased and prepared ahead of time before welcoming new visitors. Emotion just wanted the damn guppies, but went along with it anyway. They are both now pleased to say the guppies (thanks to Emotion) are here in their new home and more likely to survive, (thanks to Logic) in the tank they prepped ahead. Why guppies (why not goldfish or sharks)? Well, let's remember it wasn't logic's idea.
