some weeks ago otis entertained an international guest.
earth is the son of jariya, a thai exchange student who lived with grandma and grandpa almost twenty years ago. grandpa and earth joined otis at the children's farm with the idea that a morning with the animals would be fun for all. as it turned out a pile of sawdust was far more entertaining, followed closely by the thril of sliding down a pile of dirt on their bums.
earth warmed to the animals, cuddling the guinea pigs and feeding weeds to a goat. they were all pleased.
otis, however, was more ambivalent about his animal cousins. we did manage to capture a rare moment of intraspecies communication for posterity.
