and now, TUMBLR!

I've noticed a lot of bloggers starting up Tumblrs and they all really seem to enjoy it, so I thought I'd give it a whirl. Also new? If you didn't notice, I added Disqus to my comments section so I can reply individually to all your comments. So far I'm liking it a whole lot better than the old blogger format! I'm also on Facebook but it's not really blog friendly. Plus I hate it. So there's that.

Do any of you have Tumblr accounts? What do you think? 

Where else can I find you on the internet? Let me know!

I recommend you read: The Journey Within

MEET SABRINA ENAYATULLA (img from her 'about' page)

 You should check out her blog. She's a fantastic writer, and her latest post on her journey 

as a Muslim woman in the USA is straight-up fascinating.

Read it here.

In fact, she writes an entire series of captivating tales on learning about and embracing Islam.

Things I Love Thursday

This dancing drunk giant puppet. It may be the funniest thing I've seen this week.

These kodachrome photos by Steve McCurry. Kodak stopped producing the film and gave him the last roll. He knocked it out of the park.  

You can see more on his blog.

HAHAHA I don't know, but it's hilarious.

Olivia Malone Photography.

Armor, weapony, gaudy and oversized rings.

These pictures of Snow Monkeys in Nagano Japan by Uncle Allan. 

Yes, that Uncle Allan! Apparently he's good at everything.

These students in Guadalajara made their own bike lane, because the government wouldn't put up the funding for one. This video is so cute!

 

I love to hate White Trash Fingernails. How can you live with those things? I mean seriously. How do you zip your jeans? Type? Keep them clean? All you can do well is scratch someone's back and make me want to barf on the bus that one time.

Funny Cat Videos. Duh. Here's three.

Careful when you ask a dog for kisses.

Nova: Hey tank, let's look all cute and stuff for the camera, okay?

Tank: ROKAY!

Nova: Well, yeah, that's pretty darn cute but what if you gave me a kiss or something?

 

Tank: Rar you sure? (It's the Scooby Doo voice, in case 

you didn't get it.)

Nova: Yeah! Come on Tank, just one cute little kiss for the camera!

Tank: Rou asked for it! 

SLLLLLUUUUURRRRRRPPPPP

Me: UUUGH!

Me: Okay. Thanks. Good dog. (Goes into the bathroom to wash face.)

Tank: Scooby Doo laugh

Yikes. That dog has a big mouth.

Final Seattle Post (maybe) - The Zoo!

 This is the last post today, I swear! 

I just had to get it all out now or it was never going to happen.

All photos were taken by Ryan and me. Mine are the grainy crappy ones with the purple lines through them, and Ryan's are the better ones. 

As always, click the pictures for a larger view.

Here's some stuff we saw at the Seattle Woodland Park Zoo!

BTdubs, we saw every single animal there except for the lemurs, because we couldn't find them even though they were on the map. We even did the petting zoo and the stupid bird enclosures.

It was a super fun day.

 

We saw...

 Lions.

 Tigers.

 Bears.*

 Me as a dung beetle grub.

 Gorrillas.

 Weird bubble bug things.

 A historic carousel.

 Elephants.

 Flamingos.

 Hip-hop-opotomus-ez. (But no rhyme-nocerous.)

 Kimodo dragons. (WHICH ARE HUGE BY THE WAY!)

 Me's drinking coffees and looking at animals.

Giraffes.

 A bag of penguin guano.

 This...thing?

We told the youngest kid "Hey, you should go on the carousel." and he said "Okay." And walked over to this cardboard horse, like he was going to get on it. We laughed for days.

 A...school house?

 Weird phallic lollypops that the kids really wanted to eat in public for two days, of course.

 A brick bear.

A box of worms.

 Penguins.

 Ryans and Novas in weird little huts.

 And a Tapir in a bamboo forest.

I thought tapirs were pig sized or something but this was more like a horse. HUGE!

I had never seen one before. How exciting.

The Woodland Park Zoo was a total hit. It was easy to take the city bus there from downtown Seattle, was inexpensive, and they had vegetarian food in the cafeteria. (Bonus!) For the most part the animals seemed happy and healthy, and the zoo itself was beautiful.

I'd definitely recommend checking it out, especially if you're traveling in Seattle with kids.
