These words are my diary, screaming out loud.

Dear Journal,


So awhile back we went on a crazy-epic road trip. It was awesome. Drive, drive, drive... blah, blah, blah.

First we went to Denver for a wedding. (Sorry, none of my photos of it turned out. I know you're devastated.)


Next, we went to Kansas City for a visit with Great-Grandma:

(Isn't she great at 95?!)



Then, to the Kansas City Zoo:







...for a surprise opportunity to see:



...kangaroo porn.

Seriously, what family vacation is complete without that?

Kat: What, no road trip to the KC Zoo? Fine. I guess we'll have to drink instead.

Those Eclectic children just keep getting bigger and bigger. I imagine they're going to form their own Olympic weightlifting team soon.

Ha--kangaroo porn!

Great-grandma really does look great.

When I come to visit, I would appreciate it if you would arrange for some kangaroo porn. If not porn, at least boxing.

Now we have photographic evidence of where "Little Roo" came from. Christopher Robin, close yer eyes.

i'll second the motion for drinking over 'roo porn.

Vahid: Ha! Nah, the girl already decided she is going to live in a yurt in some 3rd world country, translating medical supplies from the US into directions that can be understood by the natives. The boys? Well, let's just say I can still take 'em, so they have a way to go. ;)

Shawkey: She is awesome! Still lives independently, insisted on cooking breakfast for us every day we were there instead of letting me do it, or take her out. The stories she can tell from the last 95 years... amazing!

Susie: Tell ya what, we could meet in the middle of the country for a replay at the KC Zoo next spring if you like. Or, we could go see Nina in Arizona instead. Whichever.

Bloggy: No doubt! "Mommy, what are they doing?" "Uh... the macarena?"

Matt: Hear, hear! Now the only question is WHEN??

You totally made me laugh. Also, your family is gorgeous.

I saw tortoise at the zoo once. It was kind of loud and disturbing.

Um, I think that kangaroo is giving you "stink eye". You know, "can we get some privacy here Lady?"

Too funny!

HeeheeHaahaaHooHoo! Funny stuff as usual dear Twinnie! Your children are beautiful by the way...just like you!

Kranki: Thanks! I think they're gorgeous too, but then, they're mine so it's nice to hear it from someone else.

Kassi: Hiya! Yeah, it IS kind of disturbing, but at least the 'roos were quiet.

Q: Oh sheesh, they were so proud! There was a herd(?) of about 50 'roos, and most of them were uh, well... making movies, shall we say? They could have at least gone behind some trees or shrubs or something.

Twinnie: Aw thanks. And you know beautiful children, having three of your own, so I trust your opinion! Hi there! I've missed you.

Hey kangaroos? GET A ROOM! Sheesh. Some marsupials have no class.

Kangaroo porn. Now I know for a fact we're related. Bucky would be sooo proud. :-)

You always have the best vacations.

All this time I've been coming here patiently waiting for the moment when you might post kangaroo porn and FINALLY.

I have incredibly specific and complicated fetishes, it's true.

LOL, Ang & I saw monkey porn at the zoo about 12 yrs ago. It is still seered in my brain. Now I can put the roos right there next to the monkey image.

Little ms. Eclectic sure is looking like you these days. Don't tell her I said that. It isn't what teen girls want to hear:)

 
At 12:03 PM, Blogger eclectic said...

Jenny: If I've heard it once I've heard it a thousand times, marsupials have no class. Which is why very few of them hold college degrees.

Squirl: I know, right?! And she hasn't even seen it yet!

Mad William: Best? Oh MW, I think maybe a 3 week tour of the UK, or France, or Australia, or maybe a 10-day stay on an island somewhere would be best. Sadly, we're not clever enough to book something sane.

Sir: With my mind-reading capabilities, I knew you'd hesitate to ask, and with how busy you are curing cancer and all, I figured it's the least I could do. Sorry it took so long. I'm working on the kinkajou porn now for you, too. You're welcome.

Shelly: Heya! How are you? It's good to see you out and about! I've got to get to Portland soon. Missing you guys like crazy. And don't worry, I won't tell her. She can read it herself when she checks the comments. ;)

Kangaroos...jumping each others bones...hah get it...jumping...

I am here all week.

Now if you'd gotten some koala porn, THAT would have been hot!

Because they live in Austrailia. Where it's hot. A lot.

I'll just show myself out.

Kangaroo porn. Nice.
Cincinatti zoo, my daughter was six..the giraffes got a bit friendly...we were standing directly in front of and obviously slightly BELOW the male....if you'd ever seen a giraffe's penis..my god the SIZE of that thing...you would have covered your daughter's eyes too and ...run away, run away!

 
At 11:00 AM, Blogger Iron Fist said...

UPDATE YOUR BLOG. I miss you.

 
At 12:19 PM, Blogger eclectic said...

William: No, you were at the hospital all week. Don't lie to me. ;)

Limpy: I never knew you had a fetish involving the Snuggle(TM) bear. That's just sick, man.

Karen: Hi! Can't say as I've ever seen giraffe bits, but having seen their nearly prehensile tongues, I have to say just the thought makes me frightened.

Vahid: Done. :)
