Juan

Hollaback Girl decided to introduce some wildlife into her cubicle--something of a revolutionary act in the Connecticut office. She bought a sleek and vibrant beta fish, a small aquarium, some multicolored rocks and some greenery for him to play in. She gently set his home up on her desk and there he prospered.

He's a feisty fellow. He greets the morning food flaking with enthusiasm, skimming the surface of the water with his sleek blue lips while flicking his tail with imperious presence. He darts, he flirts. He'd be a menace in the ring. I rather like him.

Hollaback debated over what to name him. In the end, she called her beta fish Juan, named after the sexy 20-something doorman in my building (below). He's pretty feisty too.
I may have to start cultivating fish.
