Hola Amigos

I just got back from Mexico. I saw humpback whales, manta rays, baby sea turtles and lots of beer.

Some savage bird pecked at my banana (really though… I brought a banana to the beach).

As a souvenir I brought back five vicious bug bites and lots of things with skulls and skeletons. My ‘Dia de los Muertos’ obsession is bordering on creepy…

Zoe – Reptilectric

Aaaannnnd… 8 random thoughts on the Grammy’s:

1. Yawn. Another typical Grammy show where they try to combine the celebration of boring wholesome family pop and the honoring of legends. There were some interesting moments… like when I ate pasta while watching it. So yummy.

2. Chris Brown and Rihanna did not show: they must have a good excuse. Oh, assault? Woops.

3. M.I.A. performing on her due date: nicely done.

4. Intermittent smatters of booing for award winners: classy. That was almost as interesting as my linguine.

5. Yawwwwwn.

6. Jonas Bros: did you find your fists clenching involuntarily too?

7. Katy Perry: LOL! Oh man, hearing her live performance is like getting salmonella. I love the mute button.

8. Radiohead: bloody brilliant.
