what do you do with these pictures?  they are terrible in quality, but they're what you rely on when you're without the "real deal."  so, i have decided to share these with you to 1. be able to delete them from my phone with no regrets, 2. share with you a few moments i captured, and 3. fulfill my blogging duties, because i really have nothing else to share!  i will try & explain each in the captions -- enjoy!

as i said, terrible quality. 
however, this portrays what happens when jack doesn't like us.  he sulks & gives us his best guilt trip.

my boss (left) alex at the zoo & the exibit (right) designer lee -- she makes all of the wonderful dispays for the animals, such as habitats, decorations, & such.  they are semi-inappropriate, which i love.
examples:  "i love smelling ferrets.  it's orgasmic!"  -lee (ferrets give off a pheromone that smells like musk)
"i would watch any animal mate!  does that sound pervish?"  -alex  (after we got off-subject in an education department meeting)

one of my student's automata projects.  if anyone is familiar with "angry birds," take note that he free-handed everything!  amazing, right?  (his mother is aware that i have this picture. not as creepy this way!) 

this was taken at an ARF event a couple weekends ago.  you were able to adopt (at a price) one of the greyhounds that have retired from racing in the area.  they were so sweet & cuddled up with some dog-sized snuggies at the end of the day!

this past friday night, we headed off to the NCAA tennis championships at stanford.  fascinating to watch!  they were up against UVA -- that's right jess!  stanford lost, but it came down to the 6th match to determine a winner!  intense.

students were sporting some interesting full-body costumes.  these fellas were enthusiastic & i got to know the players names, as well as other information, as the matches went on.

we are house sitting for clint & conni while they are in europe for the next 20 days, which means jack has an unbelievable amount of space to spread out in.  most of yesterday was spent by the flamingo tracking & spotting shadows. ridiculous.
