Do they not do tours?

I'ma gettin hooked on crocodiles. I bought an awesome cuddly stuffed crocodile, and I've ordered a book about them. I wish I could take him with me to work, but it's good to have something to look forward to when I get home.

I now have a headache from all that sleep earlier.... :roll:

I always think this about my dinosaurs and plesiosaurs.

Although I do always take a pocket sized Parasaurolophus and a Futabasaurus with me everywhere I go.

Speaking of which, I have a headache because of the opposite reason. Bed time for me!
