Feeling independent...

I was fortunate enough to have another week of vacation after I returned home from New Hampshire. I was feeling pretty independent and was really excited about having a day to myself. I took a trip downtown and had lunch with Alli and then spent the afternoon at the aquarium...by myself! Go me! I really enjoyed myself too! PLUS, there was a Kumodo Dragon exhibit and if you know me....you'd know that I couldn't miss that. Even though I was without my partner in crime, Megan....it was still interesting:-)

I know that this is blurry so if you can't read it...this is what it says. Megan....I know some people think we're crazy, but look at this!

"Deadly Spit: Many animals survive a Komodo attack only to die days later. Why? Toxic spit. Many kinds of virulent bacteria live in a Komodo's saliva, capable of producing a deadly infection-not to mention some of the worst breath in the animal kingdom!"

First of all, thanks for the shout-outs - I got really excited when I saw "Komodo" and then my name! Also, thanks for educating me - can I get CEUs for this? I'm very impressed that you went to the aquarium by yourself AND that you handled the komodos on your own too. Oh, I just checked out my KTA membership card, and it expired in March 2005 - that's almost two years ago. I guess it's a good thing the komodo population has remained relatively dormant, at least in the Shenandoah Valley here. Do you think I could get an updated card? Do I need to take a test or anything? I know this is the Internet, but I feel safe enouth to tell you that my membership number is 6392705015-A685026JM861VL-7153820. Please just let me know what I need to do to get a new card. Thanks.
