Yesterday Annie and I went to the Sacramento zoo, which was fun and made me feel like I'm some age under 12 again. Annie was, of course, mostly interested in the primates, but there WERE tiger cubs which we spent a considerable time gawking at. The red pandas are cute and we saw the hyenas for all of two seconds, before they decided that it was too bright and too early a day out (being nocturnal animals) and went back to their lairs to nap.
I got a brochure with informations on all the museums in Sac. Future trips to the city is in the plans.
Checked in with Charleen last evening: Shadow'll be ready for his first adoption fair in two weeks (all grown up already!) and then we'll have TWO cats to chase down on Saturday morning and they can commiserate together each Saturday evening. Watched Totoro with Annie-- movie & ice tea combination highly addictive, might be drawn back under its lures tonight.
Planted stuff in the Central Garden this morning too (volunteer work). We were working on the Meadow Garden, I think, and the soil was full of worms. Very confused wormed who did not understand why they were suddenly very exposed and very much in the light. Annie and I were, at one point, trading worms, just for amusement (and confusing the worms even further, I'll bet). We also dug up a paper-white bulb, which we were allowed to keep, so if I'm lucky our balcony will acquire a paper-white plant among its collection of...REALLY random plants. Trimmed Shadow's claws afterwards and he was not happy with us. Fixed cat toys. Will attempt to be more productive later as will have to memorize the structure of tryptophan before Monday.

Aw, I feel like going to the zoo now. Haven't been in at least a few years, I think. I'll probably end up going to the San Diego Zoo sometime this year.
