Daddysire's House Day 2

So technically it's day three at the moment, but I didn't post yesterday cuz we were really busy!

After they got back from the party, which apparently was a bust, Daddy was really upset. It took a bit and some distraction, butafter posting an angry post on this website we both frequent, he calmed down and we got to planning the storyline for a new website we're going to build. I am SO excited about the upcoming website... I havn't roleplayed a storyline game in quite a bit and I've never GMed a game, so I'm really happy. Not gonna post anything about the story and spoil it, but it is really involved, yet still leaves tonnes of room for character driven side-plots and GM driven side-plots. Plus we're going to have a forum that has nothing to do with the storyline, where players can go just to play out random things and get to know their characters better.

After wearing ourselves out talking and planning, we went to bed. We woke up and it was Mr. Wonderful's day off, so Daddy decided that we all should go to the Arizona/Sonora Wildlife Museum. So we drove through Tucson's highways, to a side road that went through Mountains!! (Mountains, Gandalf!) They were beautiful! And then we went down to the valley where the museum was.

It was an outdoor zoo where the landscaping was normal desert lands, except all the plants were labelled like a botanical garden. First we went to the hummingbird area, which is like an "indoor" (netted ceiling with netted walls, and double doors to get inside) aviary. You can walk through the entire area and watch the hummingbirds zip by you or feed or nest or do whatever they want to. It was great fun and really interesting to watch them so close up, and apparently my eyes are better than anyone elses, because I spotted about 5 of the 6 ones we saw! I learned how to describe things well, so that I could verbally lead Daddy's eyes to where the little birdy was sitting in the foliage.

After the hummingbirds, we went to the otter/water animal complex, where they had 1 otter and supposidly a beaver. Well the otter was out and playing and swimming and being VERY cute, and Mr. Wonderful got a good picture of him, but the beaver was nowhere to be found, which was slightly sad. While we were over there we also saw the Coati troop, which had a bunch of them. They're not very cute IMO, but daddy liked them.

Then we went to "Cat Canyon" which is the area where they keep their big cats. The first one we saw was an Ocelot and OMG it was SO CUTE!!!! I wanted to take it home with me it was adorable. All the cats were sleeping, cuz apparently 3pm is nap time for them, but they were adorable anyway. We saw 2 bobcats, a grey fox, and 2 margays that were really hard so find until I spotted them too. ;) We then went through the prairie dog area which also had rattlesnakes behind glass, and then came upon 2 black bears, and 2 mountain lions. I dunno what it is about Lions of any kind, but they always seem so regal. Sire liked them best (of course) and I liked them too, but the Ocelot and the Otter were my favourites. We also saw a white tailed deer and her fawn, who was cute. We got a picture in front of a statue of otters, and then left for food.

After driving through downtown and running 2 red lights by accident, we were getting really hungry and finally went out into the suburbs. Daddysire wanted me to experience what "Real" mexican food was like, but kept turning down every place we passed. (I suggested Taco Bell and got glared at... =) ) Finally we found a place called Zivas, (which Daddysire later said didn't count cuz it was too "fast foody") but I ordered something I didn't like too much, so I didn't eat much. We then went to Barnes and Noble and I picked up a gift for my mom and a pocket Latin/English dictionary cuz the online ones SUCK, and then we went to a comic book store called Heros and Villains. While they did have a large selection of White Wolf books, (Specifically a whole bunch of Requiem books that I'd never seen before, plus a lot of the new Werewolf books) and they also carried a whole bunch of board and card games, (They had 4 versions of Munchkin, and even had a Dork Tower board game!) their comic book/anime selection sucked. They had 2 issues of Angel, none of Buffy, NO Jhonen Vasquez AT ALL, a single collection of Roman Dirge, didn't carry backissues, and didn't have ANY of the 14 current editions of Angel Sanctuary (a manga I read). They only had about 5 random editions of Rurouni Kenshin as well, out of 21. And that was just what I noticed and was looking for. Apparently Mr. Wonderful didn't find anything and was really disappointed. But there's another comic book store somewhere around here, he said, so he wasn't losing hope. =)

Then we got back home and daddy talked to people online while I ate salad, ice cream, and popcorn, and Mr. Wonderful played his new PS2 game. ...I mighta gotten a bit cheeky and Sire didn't like it too much, so I mighta been leathered and caned rather harshly.... but I don't think I need to mention that... Then we finished Manor House, watched 2 Angel episodes while Daddy drew a really good picture, and went to bed.

It's current the morning of the third day and Daddy's drawing while I type this, so I think I'm gonna go over and see what he's drawing. Byebye!
