Just Me and My Sea Monkeys

Just Me and My Sea Monkeys

I was in love and in lockdown in a small flat in Leith,
Scotland. I had a lot of feelings and nowhere to put them So I bought sea monkeys. I poured in the powder and checked the water temperature. For weeks, nothing. My last-ditch effort at finding something small (and within the rental agreement) to nurture was pointless. But then, so small you could barely make them out, a glimmer of hope and companionship in two tiny wriggling specks. -Claire Aubin

只有我和我的仙女虾

那时候，恋爱中的我被封控在苏格兰利斯的一个小公寓里。
满腔柔情，无处安放的我，只好给自己买来仙女虾。我把粉末倒进去，检查水温。几个星期过去，却毫无进展。看来我想在租约合同允许范围内养点小生物的最后努力破灭了。不过，最后，我在两个小到几乎看不出来，蠕动的斑点中，终于发现一丝希望和陪伴。克莱尔-奥宾
