slipstreaming my anachronistic surreal consciousness - sharing with you my multiple epiphanies that were spawned while sitting on my porcelain throne (these are the ones I didn't flush) "don't believe everything you think…"

faunae faunae me

The 1st zoo I went to in the U.S. was The L.A. Zoo. I think I was around 12-14yrs. old.

I went with my aunt, uncle, & cousins.

I had a 35mm film camera (they didn't have digital cameras back then). I used 36 exposures KODAK GOLD 100 Film rolls because they were more economical to use than the 24 exposures.

I used 2 rolls of 36 exposures that day.

My aunt had them developed and chose double prints (because it was more economical; and, it saves time, because you don't have to go back to have them printed again).

When she got to photos.
She immediately called for me in an angry tone.
She said, "What is this?"
"There are only less than 20 photos of us in 2 rolls!"
"The rest are photos of only the animals!"
"Why did you do that?"
"What are you going to do with these photos with only animals in them?"
"We can't put that in the family album!"
"I just wasted money on this!"
"They're double prints of animals!"
"Next time, don't waste film!"
"Make sure someone's always in the photo!"

She hasn't seen my phlog.
