It's corny but amazing at the same time

In 1955 Fred Astaire did a movie called Daddy Long legs. On a trip to France, millionaire Jervis Pendelton sees an 18 year old girl in an orphanage. Without telling her who is sponsoring her, Jarvis brings her to America to go to school. He falls in love with her and they have a happy ending with much amazing dancing in between. It's one of my favorite Fred Astaire movies.

If you can't sleep

An article I found on Bling that I liked

5 Foods That Help You Sleep
By Melanie Haiken, Caring.com

Cherries
Should you let yourself have that midnight snack if you're having trouble sleeping and you think hunger might be part of the problem? Here are five foods that can actually help you drift off:
Fresh and dried cherries are one of the only natural food sources of melatonin, the chemical that controls the body's internal clock to regulate sleep. Researchers who tested tart cherries and found high levels of melatonin recommend eating them an hour before bedtime or before a trip when you want to sleep on the plane.



Bananas
Potassium and magnesium are natural muscle relaxants, and bananas are a good source of both. They also contain the amino acid L-tryptophan, which gets converted to 5-HTP in the brain. The 5-HTP in turn is converted to serotonin (a relaxing neurotransmitter) and melatonin.



Toast
Carbohydrate-rich foods trigger insulin production, which induces sleep. Bring on sleepiness by speeding up the release of tryptophan and serotonin, two brain chemicals that relax you and send you to sleep.




Oatmeal
Like toast, a bowl of oatmeal will trigger insulin production, raising blood sugar naturally and making you feel sleepy. Oats are also rich in melatonin, which many people take as a sleep aid.



Warm milk
Like bananas, milk contains the amino acid L-tryptophan, which turns to 5-HTP and releases relaxing serotonin. It's also high in calcium, which promotes sleep.

R.I.P

R.I.P Frank and Napoleon!

I woke up this morning and discovered that both Frank and Napoleon were dead. :`(
Frank and Napoleon my two sucker fish didn't seem to get along. It's looks they fought to the end. Frank was really weak, he still wasn't eating the pellets and vegetables I was giving him and he was losing weight and becoming discolored. He probably kill Napoleon and then was so weak, died from it.......saddest Christmas ever!

So, today i went to pet smart to go get algae pellets for Frank my sucker fish. Frank isn't eating the cucumber I put in there for him. Instead of getting the pellets I got another sucker fish. It was so tiny and quick, I just had to get it! It's spotted like a black leopard and it's the size of my pinkie. I named him Napoleon. Hopefully they get along. :)
