I Am Michael Phelps

We have never had pets in my family. Okay, technically that's not true. We've had fish, pretty much THE most boring pets anyone could ever have. I mean, all they ever do is swim around. You can't show them affection or anything. And to make my pet story already sadder than it is, we weren't even good at keeping fish. My brother won a goldfish at a carnival and it didn't even make it a week... Then, one year we actually got a fish tank and some real fish. We went to PetCo and everything. Which, by the way, is a sad trip when you get to see all the dogs and cats but you walk out with some boring fish instead. Anyway, I chose a little fish that was technically classified as a shark.

The guy at the store said that the shark would be fine ...

Third (Favorite Show's) the Charm

In life, lots of things seem to come in trios. There are the three main sciences of physics, chemistry, and biology. There are the three main characters of Harry Potter : Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Three essentail ingredients of bacon, lettuce, and tomato to form the famous BLT. A minimum of three Kit-Kats eaten (this rule is impossible to break-I seriously challenge you to eat just one or two). Three courses of food: dessert, dessert, and dessert. Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation  also makes a very interesting contribution to our rule of threes. #MyPrioritiesInclude three things, and three things only. pic.twitter.com/mUfmNBkKd8 — Parks and Recreation (@parksandrecnbc) February 6, 2018  Source: Parks and Recreation Twitter This is certainly a motto to live by! Waffles (dessert) and friend/family before work! And there's one more significant type of three that I haven't mentioned. It's the three great comedies of the past era. They are How I Met Your Mothe...
