I took a jolly little car ride this weekend. The sun felt good.

To the Scripps Aquarium!

2008-06-06T20:17:03Z

I wound up at the Birch Aquarium at Scripps today, and it was quite delightful.

Here I am at the info desk. I mean, you have to know what you're viewing!

The Aquarium has a splashingly good fountain out front. It appears to be quite the popular picture spot.

Wheee, a ride on a whale's tail!

Oh, getting artsy, are we?

I believe this is the kelp tank. Look at that shark! By golly, it could eat me in one bite!

Fascinating. Do fish taste like ants?

Oh jolly good, they have binoculars!

Quite the view point.

Alas, I saw no whales. Or tails. Or dolphins.

But while I was there, I took an existential moment to ponder the waves.

Here's a tide pool, with all sorts of crawly things. Hmm, how does one get through the net? There must be ants in there.

Last, but not least, a souvenir picture! Pip pip!

Hats galore

What, what! Get this ridiculous thing off of me! I cannot see!

Brr

Mammoth, eh? It's pretty cold here, too. Good thing I brought my smashing gloves with me.

Drafted

2008-02-22T17:16:07Z

I've been drafted into helping out at this office, here, while the boss is away in Panama. Jolly good view, but I just sit and look pretty all day!

I have been saved!

2008-02-12T16:05:16Z

I've been liberated from my captors up in the great Orangey north. They made me sit on a bed for weeks! Weeks! What's an anteater to do?

However, I've been rescued now, and can continue my travels and travails.

First though, I should check my fanmail.

More snow

2008-01-07T16:24:29Z

I did make a rather smashing snow-angel up in the Santa Fe mountains.

Oh that is cold!

2008-01-07T16:23:47Z

Bare anteater buns+snow=freezing

White Sands

2008-01-07T04:38:59Z

When I visited White ~~Sants~~ Sands in New Mexico, I got to borrow a sled to slide down the sand dunes.

*$ owns me

For Christmas, I got some anteater-sized mittens, as well as these handy Starbucks gifts cards, that kept the mittens' shape perfectly until I was ready to wear them! I'm styling now.

Ahh, a lazy vacation day

2008-01-07T04:36:27Z

Here's another gem from my Santa Fe trip. We had some downtime, so I played a little sudoku in bed.

Zzzz

2008-01-06T15:30:07Z

All snuggled up, and ready for some snoozies.

Tomatoes??

2008-01-06T15:29:16Z

You expect me to eat tomatoes? Are you kidding? Do you have ant-sauce?

Hungryyyy

2008-01-06T15:28:28Z

Seeing as it was so cold in New Mexico, there were no ants. No ants! What was I supposed to eat? This is me, wasting away in Las Cruces.

BRRRRR

2008-01-06T15:26:59Z

While I was in Santa Fe, I ventured up to the mountains for a little snowplay. It was ridiculously cold. Fortunately, I found some anteater sized mittens.

I'm a traveling man

2008-01-06T15:25:12Z

Me, chilling out in the Santa Fe Hilton, listening to a fellow UCI student's iPod.

I'm devastatingly handsome.
