The day began with M ringing me up when I was still in bed, but it has improved since then. I'm staying home rather than visiting her, since I am quite tired and wanted to slack off. I then noticed one of my bushes needed pruning....Several hours later, garden is much tidier and seedlings have been watered. I don't think they approved of the very cold temperatures earlier this week but they've all made it. It will slow down their growth, however.
Things going through my mind:
Watching a wildlife show the other night, with a story about zoo staff trying to get elephants in Taronga Zoo to mate. The male was enthusiastic but the female just didn't like him and kept sitting down at the crucial moment. They'd apparently met years before when he was too young to appreciate her and treated her as though she had girl germs. The action was quite, um, graphic, but what I couldn't get over was the arrival of the elephant artificial insemination specialists; these two guys who apparently travel the world helping out elephants who want babies :-) The show then went on to other stories but I was dying to find out how you ended up with a job as an elephant inseminator.
And yes, there's going to be a baby elephant :-)
I've decided to catch up on some early Supernatural episodes, having got into watching the show well into its life. It's now in 7th season. The DVD store didn't have season 1, so I borrowed season 2 but also did some online catching up of 1. The characters look so young, definitely not convincing as FBI agents. The other characters didn't believe them either. I wonder how long before the demon Crowley shows up. This character is played by Mark Sheppard and is extremely charismatic for a demon :-)
