Yeah, yeah, yeah, there is a story. To which the moral is — never get too damn excited about anything.

So some weeks ago, I went to the zoo early in the morning with one of my young charges. We would feed the giraffe, there would be giraffe selfies and my god, would golden sunlight reign upon us all.

Except it didn’t. Yeah, I got these photos of the giraffe at the giraffe experience where we were supposed to be able to feed the giraffe BUT THESE WERE ALL THE PHOTOS I GOT. A famous person in Hollywood said “never work with animals or children.” I’d add — never rely on animals. Children, yeah, all right. But the giraffe wanted no part of the experience and stood there for that split second. It was a very wild and interesting morning, to say the least.
