Average Jane & the Sea-Monkeys

If you're a relatively new reader, you may not be aware of my Sea-Monkey Journals, which were pretty much what got me started as a blogger. They were a series of e-mails that I wrote to friends chronicling the growth and development of a tank of Sea-Monkeys that I received as a birthday gift in 2000. My friends started sending them to their friends and eventually I had a pretty big subscription list going.

I re-read them yesterday and was reminded that I could stand to loosen up a little with my writing. I think I used to be much funnier.

What started me on this week's Sea-Monkey reminiscence was Keith sending me this cartoon from The Onion:

There's also a Sea-Monkey plotline going on in Kennon James' Mohagen comic (click to embiggen):

I don't know if I'll ever grow another batch of Sea-Monkeys, but they were fun while they lasted.

    I didn’t think Sea Monkeys were real. Maybe my dad just told me that whenever the commercials came on…

    I didn’t think Sea Monkees were real either – do they sing too?
