9/04 - Pink Yoshi finds a wonder window

Today, Pink Yoshi was seeking success.  This dragon had some ideas about how it’s done.  I did not know dragons were big on teamwork, but you learn something new every day.

This window was set in a very thick wall, and was very dramatic.  We liked it!

We also found a cute Dalmatian for Lil' Gal.

8/31 - Donkey Kong tells Princess Daisy to hoist the anchor

Daisy said she was not dressed properly for such an activity and that Donkey Kong should go ahead and hoist it himself.  She is such a princess.  (Lil' Guy left her in the car this morning, and I felt bad leaving her there, so DK and I brought her to work too.)

I asked Erika to hold up Donkey Kong and Daisy, but they wanted to show off their fancy poses.  She had a hard time holding on to them!

How was the rest of your school day?  Here’s a picture I took of you guys meeting Moochie the chinchilla.  Did he like being back at school?

8/30 - Littlest Monkey haz a banana

He was nice enough to share it with me for breakfast.

I was nice enough to share my afternoon cupcake (thanks, Raj!) with Littlest Monkey.

Sharing is caring.  And filling!

Odd things grow in the urban jungle…  Here, Littlest Monkey found some strange pipe mushrooms.

8/29 - Fly Guy is disguised as a regular fly on the wall

He sure picked a pretty building to do it.  This is the Hearst Building.

Fly Guy tried to check Bob’s watch for the time, but I think Bob was a little surprised…

And:  Happy, happy birthday to Grampy and Linda!!

8/28 - Fly Guy gets caught in a web

We slowed and stopped as the signs requested, but Fly Guy still got stuck in the big orange web.  Don’t worry – I got him out.

Later, Fly Guy took a number.  Turns out his number was the same as Lil' Gal's classroom number --  23!

8/27 - Fly Guy has more elbows than the average guy

He says he also has way more smarts than the average fly and the average guy. Who am I to argue with an oversized bug?

8/24 - Blue Yoshi is an honorary lady who lunches

At first, Blue Yoshi thought these footprints were from a giant that worked in the financial district, but I explained that they are BART’s attempt to keep us all in line.

We had a little reunion lunch with Katelyn and Jennifer, who escaped from I knew from my old job. It was so good to see them, but we missed Adelina and Linda (who is still at the old job).

8/23 - Pink Yoshi and the green steam machine

I have no idea what this kind of construction vehicle is, but it seems to have something to do with water pipes and the water tanks that have been sitting around this week.

Pink Yoshi found another pink dragon in the city.  Pink Yoshi said, “My, what a long tongue and sharp teeth you have!”  And then slurped her long Yoshi tongue at it.  Dragons are strange.

8/22 - Yellow Yoshi gets fruity

He wanted to know what was in these fruit boxes, but I told him we can’t open packages that don’t belong to us.

Yellow Yoshi saw the warning signs on this equipment and decided he would be very, very careful.  Good Yoshi.

8/21 - Mini McQueen says his future is so bright, he needs two pairs of shades

I’m mailing the stuff Ry left behind from our camping adventure back to him today.  Mini McQueen tried to jump in the box, but I got him out just in time.

Mini McQueen is a hit with the ladies...  Dana and I ran into Liz at lunch today, and Mini McQueen wanted his picture taken with both of them.  (Actually, they asked me to take their picture with him.  They want to see their picture on my little blog.  Sillies.)
