So Much Fun!

My life has been a bit boring lately so I haven't felt the need to write a blog. I didn't think you needed to hear about me cutting the grass or emptying a dishwasher so i am going straight to the weekend.

Friday night Jenster, Ando and I went on a night hike at Sharon Woods. We didn't know if we would be the youngest people there or the oldest. Luckily there weren't many kids there, probably because it didn't start till 9:30 pm. The hike wasn't what I was expecting. I was hoping to get out on a trail into the woods, but instead we stayed on the paved path at Sharon Woods and only went about a quarter of a mile out.

After the disappointing hike, where we didn't really see anything, except the lifesaver wintergreen mint trick, Ando and I headed to the Gypsy Hut to meet Mateo and Coriander, sorry if they have new names I can't keep everyone straight. I will try and keep their names the same from here on out. We just hung out on the patio and had a couple of drinks together and made plans to hit up the zoo on Saturday.

And that is just what we did. Ando, myself, Mateo, Coriander, and JB all headed to the zoo for some afternoon fun. I hadn't been to the zoo since I was a senior in High School and thought it would be a good time. JB also got all of us in for free since he works there for the summer. You can't beat a free trip to the zoo. It was very crowded and we didn't want to spend our whole day at the zoo so we didn't see everything, but did try and hit up everything "people" wanted to see. JB also gets half off all food so it was Icee's all around midway through our visit. I must say the zoo wasn't what I remembered it being. It is a little sad to see these animals in such small spaces with no where to roam. And the people who visit the zoo are an exhibit in themselves. We counted numerous t-shirts with priceless sayings such as, "ain't no lovin' like Kentucky lovin'".

Overall I was glad I went to the zoo again, and that it was free, but I have a feeling I won't be going again for awhile. And for all of those who grew up in Cincy the Insect house, Nocturnal House and Reptile house are all the same. Nothing has changed since we were little; I even weighed myself in bugs!

That night Ando and I had a grill out at our house. We thought it may get rained out, but it didn't rain that long and we didn't grill till it was done raining. We even had some new company for the night, Brentano and DA, no she isn't the district attorney Joel. DA is officially back in Cincy and hopefully we will be hanging out with the two of them, Brentano just needs to get down here now, more.

The best part of the evening was Murphy being afraid of Taca. She was just sleeping in her car seat, but for some reason Murph was freaked out and kept running away whenever she made a little noise. His tail even got puffy he was so scared of her, but he couldn't leave her alone either. He needed to know what exactly was in his "territory". Oh, and there was also a little "keg", 5 litres, of Heineken in the fridge; that wasn't so bad either.

Sunday Ando, Jenster and I all went for a bike ride in the morning at Lunken. We went twice around this time for 10 miles. When we finished our ride Ando and I ran a few errands, mainly Lowes, and I did yard work while Ando started trying his hand at some electricity. I got so wrapped up in yard work that I completely forgot about my soccer game. It was a 5:50 game and I thought about it at 6:20. I can't believe I totally forgot about my game; I hope they didn't run out of girls.

I was going to write about playing soccer as my tag line, but I didn't go so I have to think of a new one.......Murphy was scared by a baby; there isn't a permanent one on the way in this house.
