Fish Cyclops

Hey! Can you tell me where my friend Nemo is?
Funny story.... for me anyway. One of my workmates was telling me a story about her pet fish and how one of them died. Her housemate apparently scooped up one of this goldfish (described as the one with the bulging eyes) because it seemed sick, so the housemate apparently blew some air on to the fish's mouth and one of the eyes popped out of the socket! This, for some reason cracked me up 'cause I was imagining this happen in a cartoonish way in my minds eye, even though it was described in a very solemnly endearing manner. The fish obviously died and was apparently flushed down the toilet.  To comfort her I just said, "Don't worry, your housemate is probably going to be haunted by Cyclops Fish," and this made her smile a bit. I'm not into fish, I'm more of a dog person, that's probably why I find this a little funny.
  A lot of turnover on people work wise, I used to view this in a sad way before, kind of makes me think how people are changing their lives and somehow I am not. But now I, for some reason have a different point of view about it, It seems refreshing in a way that now that some people are gone, there's an opportunity to meet new people, and hopefully get to know and learn from them...
