196.1 pounds.  Rainy and very windy and cold the entire day.  Lay around all day with the fish.

196.1 pounds.  5 minutes on the Elliptical.  The rainy and dreary day has conquered my spirit and I decide not to go out for a walk.   Sit home instead and watch documentaries about the Vietnam War.

UPDATE: Saw the little Siamese Algae Eater zip around the corner of the tank tonight.  I hadn’t seen him or her all week and feared it didn’t make it.  Well, he or she is still alive and thriving!!!

197.2 pounds.  5 minutes on the Elliptical.  Walk up to Marquette and down 12th Street near the freeway.  Cross the pedestrian bridge.  Walk down Vliet Street.  Stop at Best Fish and buy a bag of live brine shrimp.  The fish happily enjoy them for dinner.

197.9 pounds.  Go to Aquatics Unlimited in the morning and buy a Siamese Algae Eater.  It is so tiny.  When I try to release it from the bag it clings to the plastic.  Then when it finally falls into the tank it sits in the corner in a daze.  I chase away the other fish.  I hope he/she makes it.  In the afternoon walk to the Humane Society to look at the dogs.  It is like they are in jail.  They sit in their cells all depressed.
