air fish

I dreamt that I was looking for apartments. I was so excited because I found some very affordable once and this was great because I was wanting to save money. I found one for only $322 a month. I was going to look at two more that were around $400. I went to see the $322 first. It was fine and had everything it needed. I felt like it was a bit of a beach atmosphere or at least casual and warm. I thought I had better look at the others as well. I went to see the $425 one and it was soooo much better. It had rooms instead of just being a studio, high ceilings... I loved it and wanted it because it was only $25 more than what I was currently paying. Then I thought.. the whole goal was to lower my expenses... not get exactly what I wanted. (typing this ... oy.. I want to say always go for exactly what you want.. ). I wasn't sure what to do. I had some errands to run and I thought I had better do that and think about my decision before I did something stupid. I went to some strip mall, but the stores were closed and I was on my way to somewhere else. It felt uncomfortable outside... too hot, dry, flip flops... then I saw some plants. They looked pointy and uncomfortable too, but I walked over to them because I thought I saw some flowers. They were fish swimming in air around these plants. I think it was the only place they could swim and survive. The friend I was with pointed out one that had a hurt fin. It had but cut by the blades of plant. I thought they were amazing and sad at the same time. They were so beautiful but they were stuck living around these plants for sustenance, between a strip mall and the parking lot.
