Circus

**I’ve decided that I want to start blogging again. Well ok fine, this is more of a way to get my friend Emily to START a blog :) I promised that I would blog more if she would start a blog. Of course, I have no power in actually getting her to do so, but maybe making it public on my blog will nudge her. *wink*

I wanted to write a post tonight, but I’m still jet lagged from my trip to the east cost so I’m going to actually publish a post that I wrote a couple months ago but never made public.

Picture/post from the trip to come soon!

Two weeks ago I finished reading “Water for Elephants” and it was brilliant. For some reason, I tend to really enjoy books/movies set in the older times, and this book really painted a picture of the trials and tribulations of an old-timey circus trying to make ends meet.

I just found “Circus” on Netflix, which is a documentary series about the circus life, following the Big Apple Circus from New York. It is obviously less crazy than an old-timey circus where they are scrounging for pennies and trying to find things to feed the animals. No one is getting thrown out of the railroad cars and drinking moonshine, but the narration is just as interesting.

I’d say that this would have to be my second favorite series next to “Airline” which follows Southwest Airlines flight attendants on the job.
