Zookeepers in the Mist

I went to the zoo yesterday to sketch. The zoo is a great place to go in 30-degree weather. No one's there!
Except a zookeeper or two in the distance. I think one hissed at me.
The baby elephant was super cute.The Lemurs looked really cold. They were all huddled on their branches. They hardly moved at all. Bonus!
Saw "Young Victoria" last night. It was so, sooooo good. Man I am such a sucker for girly victorian stuff. I've been giddy to see it for like forever. Conversation between me and the ticket girl:

ME: I'd like the showing for "Young Victoria" in 3D.

HER: That movie doesn't come in 3D.

ME: What? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

HER:

ME: Baaa haha! Hahahahaahahahahaha! Hahahahaha!

HER:

ME: Ha hahaha..er..haha..um. *cough cough*

I hate being reminded of what a dork I am.

  1. I didn't read the title at first but started laughing at the picture and your description anyway. The perfection of the post title is a bonus.

  2. Man I love those little lemurs. And I'm jealous you saw Young Victoria without me, I take it the baby elephant was your date.
    Phooey.

    Great stuff by the way, Heather.

  5. We used to have a zoo membership just so I could drag the kids there in the snow. The animals were so much more active then!

    I'll have to check out Young Victoria, I think. Thanks for the recommendation.

  7. Ummmmmm....Young Victoria? How have I never even heard of this movie? On my list now.

    Love the zoo pictures too - I'll have to take the boy soon. Much more fun when you don't have to shove other children out of the way to look at the animals.
