Where I'd Like to End Up





I have this fantasy of when I'm old and a retired writer that I have a koi pond and I tend to them and what not. Because after all what retired old person doesn't have a hobby? My friends grandma does golf, another old woman made stained-glass art, my mom wants to do gardening when she gets old(er), my grandad fishes, and me I'm going to have my koi pond. I can't decide whether I just want the plain ones since they don't need that much maintenance or breed the ones of a higher pedigree. The higher pedigrees are much nicer to look at in my opinion but the water has to be at just the right temperature, and the right pH balance, and the right kind of food and one of the main reasons I want koi are so that they can spawn and I can just watch them grow. I'll probably just be like "screw it" and just get the ones of a higher pedigree because for some reason I need a certain amount of worry and urgency in my life. That's where I'd like to end up. I think my favorite kind are the Bekko, Tancho, Utsuri Mono, Hikari Moyo, Hikari Muji, Utsuri, maybe the Showa but all time favorite is the Kumonryu
