Treasury Thursday: Goldfish Have No Memory
Thursday, July 1, 2010 at 1:56PM
Today's Treasury is titled "Goldfish Have No Memory." I have been listening to a lot of Ani Difranco lately. I often go on these music binges, but I first started listening to Ani when I was a freshman in high school and her music has been a constant in my life ever since.
My memory this week has been absolutely off-kilter. I keep meaning to get things done, but I keep forgetting what I need to do! Sometimes I feel like I can only focus on one task at a time and anything else thrown at me floats in the ether until I am reminded by J. So I was sitting here, listening to Ani, and I heard the lyrics to the song called Little Plastic Castle... Particularly these lines:
they say goldfish have no memory
i guess their lives are much like mine
and the little plastic castle
is a surprise every time
and it's hard to say if they're happy
but they don't seem much to mind
Haha, what can I say. Sometimes, I think it would be nice to live life like a goldfish (ignorance is bliss, after all)! Enjoy the treasury -- it took me a little while to find the perfect images, but I think I did a good job capturing "goldfish"ness with a few bubbles in between. Thank you to all of the lovely artists! And if you want to listen to some Ani, then you can click here to listen to a clip of these lyrics.
