Wednesday It isn't a fish. I cannot quite make out what it is. It makes curious, devilish noises when not satisfied, and says "goo goo" when it is. It is not one of us, for it doesn't walk; it is not a bird, for it doesn't fly; it is not a frog, for it doesn't hop; it is not a snake, for it doesn't crawl; I feel sure it is not a fish, though I cannot get a chance to find out whether it can swim or not.

he night when it complains and wants to get to the water. At such times the water comes out of the places in her face that she looks out of, and she pats the fish on the back and makes soft sounds with her mouth to soothe it, and betrays sorrow and solicitude in a hundred ways. I have never seen her do like this with any other fish, and it troubles me greatly. She used to carry the young tigers around so, and play with them, before we lost our property; but it was only play; she never took on about them like this when their dinner disagreed with them. Sunday She doesn’t work Sundays, but lies around all tired out, and likes to have the fish wallow over her; and she makes fool noises to amuse it, and pretends to chew its paws, and that makes it laugh. I have not seen a fish before that could laugh. This makes me doubt…. I have come to like Sunday myself. Superintending all the week tires a body so. There ought to be more Sundays. In the old days they were tough, but now they come handy.  SUNDAY SHE DOESN'T WORK SUNDAYS BUT LIES AROUND ALL TIRED OUT AND LIKES TO HAVE THE FISH WALLOW OVER HER AND SHE MAKES FOOL NOISES TO AMUSE IT AND PRETENDS TO CHEW ITS PAWS AND THAT MAKES IT LAUGH I'VE NOT SEEN A FISH BEFORE THAT COULD LAUGH THIS MAKES ME DOUBT I'VE COME TO LIKE SUNDAY MYSELF SUPERINTENDING ALL THE WEAK TIRES OF BODY SO THERE OUGHT TO BE MORE SUNDAYS IN THE OLD DAYS THEY WERE TOUGH BUT NOW THEY COME HANDY
