“Hey, hey, we’re the Monkees!”
Those monkeys were pretty cool, but have you taken the time to appreciate real monkeys lately?
I’m a little obsessed with them. How can you not be? They’re furry creatures that look like people, but aren’t quite there. They still have the same interests and sense of humor as a toddler no matter how old they get. Here are some reasons why I love monkeys.

I always wanted to high-five a monkey. I want to create elaborate hand shake, a secret only the monkey and I would share. I also want my monkey friend to dress exactly like me when we go out. We’d be the coolest guys at the party, Dr. Monkeykins and I. (I’m naming my monkey Dr. Monkeykins, by the way. Deal with it.)
