Tender Is The Ghost
Oops. I got hit by another sleep attack. Most of Saturday was spent in the arms of sleep. Oh well. At least I managed to get to the playground before it happened. So it wasn’t a complete waste.
Sweet little guys. I was there while Jannie was doing the feeding. Nice to say hello to her.
I have also uploaded another video, from a couple of days ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrJm00MRr3k. The kids mucking about outside. You can see them bump heads a little. And one of them does a little powerstruggle with my hand. I wonder if they’re going to be big rivals when they grow bigger. Boys will be boys. But for now they are still just little babies. And so cute.
Tomorrow I’m going to go return the blu-ray player. And hopefully that’ll go quick and easy so I can jump on a bus to the playground and spend some more time there. There’s nowhere else I’d rather be right now.

That was cute at the end when they are both laying next to each other. Warm little goatzie bundles.
Vanilje has such a bond with you. She makes sure the kids are ok, then leaves you to babysit. She knows somehow they will be safe with you.
I wonder what the goats think about us? Do they think we’re part of their herd? And what do they call us?
Deep thoughts from Debster!

Well, Debster, I think the goats see you and Plume as another goat. They have enough trust in Plume to have her leave her boys with him. I guess if you develop enough trust and love and patience they accept you as one of their own.
Those were good questions. Many points to ponder…

I love Monty Python which is reflected in my previous post to Plume. The looking at each other came from some long ago skit. I think it had to do with spam.
A lot of play on words: me looking;you looking; him/her/it/us looking.
Imagine the camera shots each time, back and forth with quick shots. Very visual and very funny: your face; Debster’s face; her husband’s face; my face; a teaser shot of the goats; back to your face… I mean it could go on and on.
Now think after three, four shots of straight bourbon. Talk about funny!!
…until the person vomits and I have to clean it up.
Then it’s not so funny.
UNTIL you have girl dancers in revealing Las Vegas show outfits dance around me as I scoop up the vomit with a plastic toy shovel, and I’m trying to dodge high kicks.
I’m sorry–what was the question?
Oh, yes.

Debster – Yes, it’s always cute when they sit down all close to eachother like that. Buddies.
Vanilje knows I’ll keep an eye on them. Well, two eyes. Okay I can’t keep any of my eyes off of them. No way no how.
If only we could read their minds, I’d love to know what they think half the time!
LuisLemmings – Ah Monty Python. Those were the days. Spam spam spam spam spam spam in his first book wrote about wrote about.
I think you’d make a good Python.

I like the ever-funny “Dead Parrot Skit” in the pet shop by Monty Python.
I remember when “The Search for the Holy Grail” movie came out, my sister & I were in an almost empty movie theater laughing hysterically.
Monty Python was really ahead of its’ time and I don’t think they were appreciated (around here in the Midwest) when they first started.

Debster – I remember watching the holy grail movie in school and I was dying, just dying. Because I was trying to stop myself from laughing out loud the whole time. You know me, I didn’t want any attention. But I just couldn’t help it. Help help I’m being repressed!
