The Columbus Zoo

This week a brand new baby elephant went on display at the Columbus zoo. He was born last week in the middle of the day- he just kind of popped into the world. At only 290 lbs, he was actually small for a baby elephant, and I cannot wait to see him. I didn't get to the Columbus Zoo this weekend, but I did get to a petting zoo. On Saturday, BF and I went to the house of a friend of his. It was a very nice time, and I like to meet new people, but it was crazy over there. His friends have two St Bernards, a basset hound, a bunny, three cats, two guinea pigs, a chinchilla, and a turtle. Whoa! I felt like I was covered head to toe with dog slobber. I was not prepared, and later I thought, maybe we should have gone to the zoo this weekend- it may have been less crowded. At the end of the evening, BF and I sat on the couch and he said, "That was fun." After I agreed, he waited a couple of minutes and said, "There was a hairball in my beer." To which I replied, "There was hair in my lasagna." It is good to meet new people, but I think next time, we should all go out to eat.
