Introduction (Because they're mandatory, aren't they?)

Well hello to our friends and family! To anyone who doesn't fall in one of those two categories, please comment and introduce yourself to avoid falling into the 'CREEPY STALKER' category...

So, I will now formally introduce you to the creatures in the zoo along with our basic habitat and with whatever else pops up in my mind to tell you about!

We are the Head family comprised of two adult-aged humans, two dogs, and one pup:

Habitat - The Zoo is mostly contained in the little orange house in Bremerton, Washington. The little orange house weighs in at a whopping 840 square feet, mostly overtaken by mismatched furniture, overflowing recycling bins, and giant dustbunnies made of dog hair.

Donald aka Head Zookeeper - Donald is the head of the Head household, number one zookeeper in the little orange house. Donald is fiercely private but also ridiculously hilarious. This juxtaposition could cause problems with my blog, but we'll proceed anyways.

Andria aka Zoocleaner, Zoofeeder, and Zooshopper - That's me, in case you were wondering who your delightful narrator was. I'm a happy stay-at-home-for-now zootender. But don't worry, I get out of the zoo plenty. I started this blog so that I would have yet another medium to talk through. I love to talk and one mouth just isn't enough.

Zak aka Kelpie, Walrus, Lion - Zak is one half of the duo known as "ZakAndSara" and is a black and tan Kelpie (a type of Australian Cattle Dog). He is our most contented canine who loves to sunbathe like a walrus. Zak also has many lion-like roars which he employs mostly to complain or protest.

Sara aka Princess Peacock, Firefox, Gopher - Sara is obviously the other half of the duo known as "ZakAndSara". She is Zak's twin so she is also a black and tan Kelpie. Sara is the only baby girl in the family (besides me), and she plays the part well. Sara is always the center of attention even though she is the smallest of the pups. She also loves to curl up into a tiny ball with her tail over her face. Google "Firefox animal" if you don't have the foggiest idea of what I'm talking about. Sara is an absolute princess.

Barley aka Resident Idiot, Cowardly Lion, Three-Toed Sloth - Barley is the youngest critter in the house although he's our biggest pup. Weighing in at 70 pounds, Barley is a brainless ginger. He is afraid of everything, chases his tail relentlessly, and takes five minutes to get on and off of the couch. However, we love him to death. He is the most easy going pup in the world with big floppy ears who cries to be let back into the house when he escapes. Even though he lowers the collective IQ of the Head Zoo, we can't live with out him.

So now you have a basic Head Zoo roster. Hopefully I'll get around to posting pictures and whatnot soon. But for now, all three dogs are sleeping at once (this is about as rare as an eclipse) so I must take advantage of it and watch some Glee!

Love, Hugs, and Sloppy Kisses!
