Hello March!

I am LOVING this weather! What's going on here in Cincinnati? I have no idea, but it can stay this way until Beach season. Sunday I met some friends for breakfast and then I took the kids to the Zoo. It wasn't even that crowded, although there was hardly anything open, foodwise and trainwise. The animals seemed cute...like they were excited that it was "people" season. Some showed off for everyone, came to the edge of the glass or the cage and looked people right in the eye. Either they were showing off, or they were laughing their asses off at us "people" who were totally entertained by a little sun and some animals.

Speaking of animals, I went on a fieldtrip with Zac last Friday to the Shrine Circus. The animals are really not as cool to see as the trapeze artists and motorcross riders. Anyway, the tigers were there and there was one tiger who didn't want to do the "act" at all. He came out of the cage hissing at the others, ears flat back against his head. I felt so sorry for him/her. I just imagine my own cats and how they feel when they get upset or fiesty like that. It got me thinking about the circus. I really think they should do away with the animal parts of the show. If you wanna hang by your toes 2 stories up and flip through the air, that's your right (and stupidity) as a HUMAN, but these animals didn't chose to be in the circus in front of screaming kids day in and day out. It really ruined the experience for me.
