Monkeys!

I went to the Toronto Zoo a few days ago, and noticed that they had a shitload of monkeys. They also had a moose that followed you and a cougar eating grass to kill itself. I don't mind going to the zoo to see the animals, but holy shit some of them have that look in their eyes that they are helpless and need us to help them survive.

Seriously, the lions didn't look too scary. They just looked like big cats. Hell, if I did some of my dog training tricks I could've petted them. I did get a nice crack dealer tin from the gift shop, and it had mints in it. The tin is called the "Jungle Mints tin", and it's lime green. Still smells like the damn mints too.

Then there's always the bullshit that I'll ramble on about... like how my friends bike got stolen. But the worst is that this was my friend who got hit by a car, and the insurance company wants the broken bike to make sure he doesn't fix it and have 2 bikes. So he just got screwed out of $850 cash and now the main way that we get around is walking. I didn't realize that some of these places that you can get to by bike in 5 minutes are a 20 minute walk, so I've been getting used to the fact that walking is way more unpredictable than biking.

Right now, I'm trying to figure what to do with my day.... I might be back later if I remember.
