Huh.

You know what? I've got to learn to be more positive about stuff. I've not been great recently - haven't been sleeping well, been frustrated with people at the zoo, worried about my training, etc. But this evening I was writing an e-mail to an old friend and I realized...today alone I walked a dog, trained a macaw, groomed with a baboon, and snuggled with a baby gibbon. Back in the day I never would have believed I'd be here, doing what I'm doing. This was my dream. It made me think - we never actually reach our dream. We reach what we wanted, and there's always something more, something else to want. And I don't know whether that's a good thing or a bad thing. But I do know I am going to miss this when it's gone.

Anyways, HAPPY V-Day, people! Especially all the singletons out there - big red chocolate hearts for us!
