it's all happening at the zoo

Today i have the girliest nails possible. They're pink with little round silver confetti glitter bits on them. i usually opt for deep deep dark brown/red, but last night i was bored so i went in another direction. i know....fascinating stuff huh?

Sometimes, i think i have the bestest job in the entire world. Like today, i went into beltsville maryland looking for salon chairs from the 1950's and went into this huge warehouse where, i'm so not kidding here, old beauty parlor stuff goes to die. they just had pile after pile after dust covered stack to the ceiling of these chairs. it was amazing. The guy laughed at me as i snapped polaroids left and right. i'm hoping some of them will work for two gents. I'm really pushing for these red chairs that i think are a little early (1940's-ish) but they are just so amazing.

also, i get to crawl around and make things. and when i buy glitter pens, it counts as stuff for work.

I bought glitter crayons yesterday, mostly just because, because i was having a good day. I was uptown in cleveland park looking at some vintage lawn furniture and i was only 2 blocks away from the zoo so i took my lunchbreak there. finally got to see those damn pandas. they are amazingly cute. even when they were napping. every time a panda would pick it's head up, the crowd would cheer, and when they hid their face, the crowd would groan or boo.

But the gibbons. holy cow. first, there's a baby gibbon, and it clung to it's mama as she swung around the cage, and the two big black simian monkeys were hooting and hollering and making all sorts of amazing noises. it was really quite a show and it went on for at least 15-20 minutes.

god, i love the zoo......
