I think he may have been jealous of the time I spent with Janey the orangutan this morning at the zoo. After weeding, we exchanged pleasant &#8220;Merry Christmases&#8221; and then went on our separate ways. I hope we get even closer tomorrow. My plan is to eventually have him fall asleep in my lap while I pet him.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Squirrel-12-25-11-lo-res.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[10595]\"><img data-attachment-id=\"10596\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/2011\/12\/25\/hangin-with-rocky-part-two\/squirrel-12-25-11-lo-res\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Squirrel-12-25-11-lo-res.jpg?fit=720%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"720,480\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D70&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1324813572&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;70&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0008&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Squirrel 12-25-11 lo-res\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Squirrel-12-25-11-lo-res.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Squirrel-12-25-11-lo-res.jpg?fit=570%2C380&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-10596\" title=\"Squirrel 12-25-11 lo-res\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Squirrel-12-25-11-lo-res-300x200.jpg?resize=300%2C200\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Squirrel-12-25-11-lo-res.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Squirrel-12-25-11-lo-res.jpg?w=720&amp;ssl=1 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My squirrelly friend, Rocky, rejoined me today for another round of mutual weeding in our backyard.
