Insert Favorite Animal Sound Byte Here

Most people talk about it being a Zoo at work which is taken with a grain of salt. Well, pull out your shakers... it was a Zoo literally or at least a Zoo visit today. It wasn't as crazy as it could have been. But that didn't stop all sorts of speculation on the day that it could have been. K. our favorite Zoo guy came today with 14 different types of animals and everyone had a great time.

I have always wanted to find out if he was working at the zoo when I was younger. I can remember going to the Zoo with my family. P. and I were running and I tripped. These two lovely Spanish speaking people helped me up and took me to the Zoo office. Once inside, I was bandaged and taken care by the staff. But one major memory stands out in that someone (a guy I think) teased myself and P. that if our parents didn't pick us up that there would be fresh meat for the lions tonight. Major EEK factor to a 10 year old( or so) but thankfully the parentals came and I never found out if I would have been Kid a la King for some lion cub.

There were also animals in my dreams last night. I dreamed that all manner of cats were sneaking into my house and I kept chucking them out the door. "I have three" I must have said a million times plus in my dream. I actually woke myself up because I dreamt that I chucked a cat standing up but I threw it so hard that I bent my torso. I woke up by sitting up i.e. bending my torso. Where is my Joseph for this set of dreams? I love my cats but I very rarely dream of them or any cat for that matter.... It wasn't my book. I had finished rereading Dune by Frank Herbert... not a single cat in there as best I can remember.

P. and I had a great time hanging out with M&D before she packed up her car and heading back home to go to work that night. I had barely gotten in PJs (yes it was like 3 in the afternoon but it was a Sunday:P ) when she knocked back on the door. She had spotted a 30 to 40 gallon tank in the trash and wanted to take it home with her. She guess that someone had had a snake or lizard and it had die and so they just tossed the tank. After almost putting it in the car, she realized that the previous tenant had in fact died.... and was still in the tank covered in water and lots of dead leaves.... major grossness and thus she decided she didn't need the tank after all. LOL She is major thrifty but not that major thrifty : ) Good day and remember to keep your ducks in a row, be nicer to your snakes and keep your kitties happy.
