    I am so disappointed!! My LFS is having a huge sale this weekend (Friday and Saturday) in the evening hours only - it's called a Twilight Sale. Anyway, I was going to get my new larger tank, stand, etc. and I was soooo excited - practically counting down the days.

    But here is the bad news!! Yesterday I had food poisoning and couldn't leave my bed and tonight I have a Christmas party to go to. So I CAN'T get the tank and all the goodies!!

    Ahhhh I'm so mad!

    Okay, just needed to vent a little. Thanks for listening! ;)

    Haha, well at least you are able to attend that christmas party and not still sick....

    Check craigslist, there are always cheap deals on tanks there.

    Thanks. I'm thinking about calling them and seeing what they'll do. I have given them a lotta money!!

    My wallet really hopes they will let me buy something over the phone, too. ;)

    Oh man. I will never eat fried cod, onion rings, or drink a Mai Tai ever again. I got food poisoning from fried cod several years ago and that was the sickest I've ever been. Sorry to hear!
