Austin Bound

Maggie surprised me when I got back from SF with a huge bear. His name is Barnabus. He made the drive much easier...though lots of drivers on the road were surprised to see him. Maybe that's why there were so many near collisions around me.

In December, the Chick-Fil-A in Temple had a special deal where if you return in Jan, they'll give you everything on your receipt for free! Since Maggie was with me, that meant two Chicken Sandwiches + Waffle Fries! I've been really excited for a month now. But I drove back on Sunday, and Chick-Fil-A is closed on Sundays! Damnit!

At least Barnabus kept me company at What-a-burger.

We found a little live jellyfish on the beach... it looked like a raw egg. It's probably the same type of jellyfish as the ones that wash up onto the beach in hordes... when they die, they look like used condoms. Thousands of little used condoms littering the beach.

These fish are alive... but they're all too lazy to swim. So they just flap one fin around and lay there. Guess when the humans go home, the fish come out and play!

The Academy of Science Museum

I dropped by while in San Francisco... I've been watching them build it for so long. The rooftop garden is amazing, and the biosphere has some really great lizards and carnivorous plants (a.k.a. Monkey Cups)!
