A Day In The Life.....
May. 24th, 2026 10:02 amOr two.....
Yesterday after work I drove up to the Minnesota Zoo and spent 3 hours wandering around the animals.
Not sure if it was because it's a holiday weekend or if it was just because it was a Saturday, but there were already quite a few people in the parking lot when I got there just before 9 am.
The zoo opens at 10 am, but members can get in an hour earlier.
I took a bunch of pictures, but I haven't gotten them onto the ole computer yet.
Hopefully they turned out okay.
The drive up to the zoo was a bit of a struggle, aka SLEEPY, but the drive back went okay.
I stopped in Rochester on the way home to get my glasses repaired, again. A couple of months ago one of the nose cushions fell off.
Guess what fell off again. You would think $500 glasses would be sturdier than that. :o
Then I stopped and got a couple of things at the grocery store before heading home.
And stupidly when I got home, I didn't crawl into bed. I sat down with ye ole computer and started going through emails and the such.
And I watched several more episodes of The Madalorian in prep for the movie that opens this weekend.
Just now, Sunday morning, I finished watching the last two episodes, so tonight I will hopefully make it to the movie theater and see the movie.
Fingers crossed that when I lay down in a little while I can get some sleep. I did sleep a good portion of the night away.
No surprise after being awake for most of 24+ hours.
I is getting too old for this sort of thing. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have one, but he isn't always able to go, especially when I do a last minute go like Saturday was.
Heading out to the movie in about an hour. :o
Gonna catch it on the IMAX screen.
Fingers crossed I don't sit down in the dark theater and fall asleep. LOL.....
