SATURday

In the Park...I think it was the 4th of July. (Think that song by Chicago)
Well, it's the 7th today- So how was everyone's 4th? How do you feel about your independence? I was thinking about that-- how come we always say, "Happy 4th!" and not "Happy Independence!" Wouldn't it seriously be an adventure if we were still part of England? Maybe we'd all have British accents and Canada and the US would all be like one big country. Maybe we'd all have health care? And calling my Canadian friends wouldn't be long distance! Yesss!

Pets are so much work. Man, I'm babysitting these fish and they are exhausting. I mean, I have to feed them TWICE a day. Come on! Hee Hee. :) I suppose that's why I murdered my fish in college...I mean I didn't murder him/her I just forgot to feed him/her for like a week or so and then he/she died. Do fish REALLY have a gender? No. They are all just fish. Fish sex (sex like making love) would be really weird, especially since they'd have to do it in the water and they would be slippery.

In good news, my 2 basil plants and 1 cilantro plant are actually growing in my apartment.

Have a good week,
Ms. Non-Sense

Ha ha,

Fish sex. Some male fish insert a sperm tube into the female; others spew sperm (milt) onto eggs the female has already laid. (And I bet they do it a bunch of other ways!)

the guy at the store where I bought that fancy tank said that the male should get all hot and bothered because he's flanked by two females, and he'll spew out a nest of some sort, and then if I take out the divider and let the female in, they will "do their thing". But then the male will become abusive an try to kill the female so I have to separate them again.

But I think Fidget is too old to get it up. He's been swimming sideways for a while now...

Thanks for babysitting. :-)

Once upon a time there was a girl named Gina. She got really drunk last night and tried to call her friend Heidi. But she dialed Holly instead. So this morning I got a lovely message from Raj and Gina. Thanks!

Well, checking my call log, it looks like it was actually yesterday morning at 9:10 a.m. The message went like this:
"say something to her!" (gina)
"i don't know what to say" (some guy)
"ugh. Heidi! We're waiting for you. ready when you are, so call us" (gina)

Ring any bells?

weird. No Bells actually, it is sort of impossible because i am in Green Bay this week, and he was in Madison-- WAIT NOW I know, not drunk at ALL, that was my DAD! :) I must have accidentally dialed your number instead of Heidi's, no wonder she never got the message!

Surprise! What did Talie and Ms. Sequitur find? HA I meant Ms. NON-Sequitur of course.... How exciting, a teeny tiny (or tee-niny as my Grandma B says) little critter. A baby gecko is gracing her presence on my keyboard. Check out this amazing video footage taken immediately upon noticing the gecko/lizard/cold blooded animal: PS: I made it to work today. I continue to do a Christian Cross each time I arrive somewhere. If anyone knows another religious type sayings I can do or say when I am safe, I would appreciate it. I'm not sure if Jesus and I are vibing.  BIG HUGS Non-Sequitur!

Mutinondo

Whoa! What a cool place this Mutinondo  was!  It is is a woodland, wilderness area NORTH EAST of Lusaka about 10 hours by bus. (Sorry about the yelling, that is a little shout out to my friend, you know who you are) (Also,  let me know if the link doesn't work) There were these gorgeous look-out points and mountains....well, large granite hills, but they were steep enough and we climbed up 2 of them. It took about 30 minutes to get to the top of each.  In the top video I'm reaching the top of the mountain!  You can hear our cool driver Mr. K cheering? :) me on!  These photos are in no order exactly, but I'll talk a little about each one! I think this one is on top of the first mountain, called Charlie's Rock This is horse poop (I know you are supposed to say scat in the wilderness, but I think horse poop is funnier. The place has some horses that we didn't ride) The view. Whoa. A little creature roaming around. He was furry and I wonder ...
