I went to the Zoo tonight for their members-only thing where you get this kind of in-depth talk about a bunch of different animals. For all of you rolling your eyes right now, it’s actually pretty fun. Last time we met a Chinchilla (which are ridiculously cute), and got to pet it for a few minutes. This time we saw a couple awesome owls, a hawk, and a raven named Poe. Which, now that I think about it, I’ve been meaning to put a raven in a story for a long time. It probably won’t be named Poe… but still at least it helped me remember.
Also we got to see a bunch of kangaroos, which never lose their charm. I’m serious, these animals are just so cool that nothing can ever make them boring. They act like my dog (rolling around in the dirt), are as adorable as my dog (from an animal standpoint), and hello… they’re Australian. The only thing I like more from Australia is Outback Steakhouse. If you happen to be Australian… sorry if I just offended you. If you’re Australian and happen to be named Julian Assange, please don’t hack my computer.
The third and final thing we saw were a brother-sister pair of golden lion tamarins, which are exactly what they sound like. They’re these tiny little monkeys (for want of a better word), colored gold and with a kind of lionish mane. They also have these really long tails which are probably twice the length of their body, and can hang from them. These two are apparently fearless as well, and travel to the bear exhibits when they’re let out of their exhibit.
Now that I’ve bored you to hell with a bunch of animal stories, here’s a song.
SONG OF THE DAY: ATTENTION
This may be what I wish some people would give me sometime. Goodnight people, and I hope I’m not being as boring as I was a couple of days ago!
