I'm sick today. Maybe I'll be sick tomorrow.

I went into work the other day and almost everyone had called out sick, again. I do believe they really were sick. Most of them sounded awful last week, left early and took off on the days where there was no supervision or work to do. WTF? I came in for that. I played on the computer... I actually got a suprising amount of work done.

So yesterday after lunch, I said to myself... "I feel like crap. I'm going home! I think I'll be sick tomorrow as well."

Sometime during the night I got it into my head I was going to visit the aquarium. I have no idea how that happened. It must have been a picture on someone's blog or a news site. I've been trying to get my best friend to go with me for ages... So this morning I woke up and said "Yep, you're going, you can do this." I drug myself to the platform, hopped on the train and called out sick.

"You're sick? cough cough sick? Really?" No, not really. You'll never guess where I am, I'm passing thru your town now. "Where the hell are you?" lol, on the train to Camden. "What the hell are you going to do there??" I'm going to the Aquarium!!

It's a shame so many people only see the views from the trains. It is depressing.

Without further ado.... TOO MANY PICTURES!!!!

Look! Hippos! *winks* There were lots of really cool birds there. Unfortunatly the birds were being bird-like and I didn't manage to get one darned decent picture of the giant gorgeous things.

Many stuffed colorful hippos. I thought about getting one *wink* but I don't know where to send it.

That's the Philadelphia skyline. It was full daylight there, no idea why it's so dark. *update* I know why it's so dark now. It's my monitor, looks normal everywhere else.*

This guy decided he liked me, he stuck around for quite a while.



















Are those cool or what? I'm glad they came out so well. I took all these with my crappy razr phone btw, and apparently everyone has one. Spoiled kids, ten year olds with razr phones running around the aquarium. That's just not right.

Poisonous Frog! I lost the one picture. They were all neon. There was purple, red, orange and green as well. There's a red one in the upper left.

This Dude was really cool. He's HUGE. Him and his buddies pretty much chilled.

These are DEADLY PIRANAS!

Here's a Mudskipper. They were quite friendly and seemed to enjoy my peering at them.

The spiny lobsters were real freaky, as were the spider crabs. The crabs were doing some sort of dance.

Penguins are smart... they knew I was trying to take their picture, they kept teasing me.

This was huge. Steve Irwin was kinda stupid.

Here's a couple of sharks.

THE END. I'm exhausted. :-)
