Maladjusted

Today will be a good day. Go forth and make it so, for as many as possible.

Day 3 of Willy Wonka’s pill factory. Nausea seems to have lessened. Maybe because I ate half a banana with the pill. Or maybe because I slept for 14 hours last night. Or maybe because Earth’s rotation is slowly slowing down like the wheel on Wheel of Fortune. You never know. There are some bad news, though. My favourite pizza place was closed all last week, and it’s closed today too which means it’s probably going to be closed all week again. I guess they’re on holiday. There really ought to be a law against that. It’s a good thing I’m hopped up on happy pills or I’d be sad about that.

It’s my goal in life to get as relaxed as A38. And find someone to feed me treats.

Maybe it’s a good thing there was no new episode of Twin Peaks this week. If I had watched episode 8 while high on the new meds I might have ended up in the cuckoo’s nest.

Diane, what if we are all ants suffering from the delusion that we’re humans? Maybe this is all just a mass psychosis. I don’t know, I think I may be on to something.

I like to say to myself “Well I’m sure nothing could possibly go wrong” right around the time it looks like things are about to go wrong in the movie or TV show I’m watching.

Good goat times today. Quite lovely and sunny. Pleasantly warm, although I’d like some summer heat. But a fine day to spend with goats. We had lots of visitors today. Probably because it’s summer vacation so all the parents and grandparents can take their kids out early in the day when I’m also typically out with the goats. There was a group arriving just as I got there, I think it was daycare group. They were a bit loud. Making those excited/terrified squeals that some kids expell when seeing the goats. And one kid was very adamant that the goats should know what they were. Poitning at them going “GOATS! GOATS! GOATS!”. Or maybe it was a cheer. Mio stood calmly and let them pet her as much as they wanted. She’s a saint. One of their grownups kept going “No, don’t poke it in the eye. No, don’t stick your finger up its nose. No, don’t pull its horns.”. And Mio just stood there, happily. She’s a perfect petting goat.
The goats were much adored and I got to answer questions, and smile a lot. A woman I see often came by with some kids and said hi. She oftens brings some bread for the horses. And always calls out to me. It’s nice when they remember you, and even know your name.
I’d been feeling quite good, but after a couple of hours I started feeling a bit queasy. Not too bad. But still, I thought I’d better head home just in case it got worse. But then more people arrived! And their kids wanted to feed the goats and it was a whole big thing and too funny to leave. So I stayed a while longer. Worth it.

I’d post a GIF of my celebrity crush, but I don’t think a pizza with a cutout of Kristen Bell’s face makes for a very interesting animation.

It’s funny, this time last year I was nervous when I left the house because I was worried I might run into scary clowns. Now today I’m scared to leave the house because I might run into criminal gangs. So, at least that’s gotten better!

Heading to bed. Very tired. But that’s mostly because I stayed up last night. Little bit of nausea still, but it’s not as bad anymore. Generally feeling okay. Haven’t had a real moodswing since I started the new meds, although that’s probably just coincidence since it’s supposed to take a while before it really works. Currently reading The Chris Farley Show, so I’ll probably end up crying anyway. May the rest of the 4th be with you. Goodnight, America wherever you are. And goodnight rest of the world, wherever YOU are.

Good exercise today. Well, decent at least. First proper one since starting the new meds. I still feel a bit of the nausea, and it gets worse with exercise because I seem to get more sensitive to the smells. Like sweat. And having hot, stale air blown right at me from the space heaters. But alright. I got it done. Maybe the meds will stabilize my moods and I’ll be less dependent on pizza to keep the spirits up. That would be nice. Idea: Pizza with antidepressants as toppings. Patent pending.

I bet Chris Christie was behind denying the VISA for that Afghan all-girls robotic team. He knew they’d beat his BeachedWhalebot3000 in the big robot competition.
Okay, maybe political satire isn’t my biggest strength.

True story, when I read the headline about Hobby Lobby smuggling tablets I thought they were some kind of weird Iraqi brand of iPads or something.
My second thought was that maybe it was a leaked script of a modern reboot of Indiana Jones.
My third thought was that I was hungry and that people probably wouldn’t be interested in my thoughts but that I should post them anyway just in case. I mean you can’t be too careful.

Good goat times today. Pleasantly warm and a good deal of sunshine through a thing cloud cover. Quite lovely. Pretty relaxing day too, with the goaties. They were in relax mode already when I got there. And we didn’t have many visitors today. Just a couple of young girls who came over to say hi to the goats. I like when people come by and now Mia and Mio’s names. It shows that they’re part of the place now, not just loaner goats. I overheard one of the girls saying “I’ll never forget Popcorn. The goat that kept jumping over the fences”. Haha. She was talking about Peanut. I have heard someone else talking about Popcorn who was on loan here, so I guess they just had the names mixed up. They must have called Peanut ‘Popcorn’ all the time he was there. Oh well. It’s still nice that he’s remembered. And yeah, it still cracks me up thinking about him being there. Those low fences. He must have spent more time out of the pen than inside it. I wish I’d known how easy it is to get to this playground, I could have visited him and seen him with Yogi. I wonder how they got on. I can imagine who was the boss… Or rather, I can imagine A38 sitting down and relaxing while Peanut was causing all kinds of trouble. What a comedy duo.

Well, since she couldn’t bring her pet rocks, this will have to do.

That thing when the pizza delivery guy says “bon appetit” but you’re expecting him to say “have a nice day” like all the others so you’re already replying “you too”.
Well, at least he didn’t assume I was inviting him in to join me for pizza.

Okay, off to bed. I’m still experiencing the nausea on and off. It’s not so bad that I can’t power through it, but I do hope it goes away soon. Before I have the callback with the doc would be nice. Also waiting to hear back from that Nigerian prince. I’m trying to scam him out of money. If you ever get an email from a Danish goat herder, delete it immediately. They’re notorious scammers!

I’m not feeling so great. Not sure what it is. Sad? Empty. I don’t know. A little setback I guess. It’ll be fine. Just feels like there’s something off. I feel like my head is having restless legs syndrome.

    Good to hear you talked to your doctor about meds. That’s a big step in the right direction and all your friends know just how hard it was to do. We have all been there, too and you aren’t alone.

    Try eating a few crackers or bread before your meds or with meals. That might help with the queasy feeling. Sometimes it takes a while for the side effects to go away. But if it is still too bad, be sure to let the doctor know. There are other meds to try until you find the right one.

    I don’t think you will turn into a stockbroker either! You will just find it easier to be the best Lasse you can be – the one who is funny and witty and kind to goats. Not to mention a great blogger with a real gift for writing.

    And what’s this I read about someone from America who stopped in to see the goats and you at the playground? I thought you would be running away from them, screaming all the way, or you would melt into a puddle on the ground.

    Sounds like you handled the visit just fine! A couple hundred more visitors and you will be so desensitized to meeting people, you will be leading your own tour groups! You might not ever enjoy it, but you survived it just fine now, didn’t you?

    Keep up the good work, my dear Danish goat boy. Remember, you are a Viking after all is said and done.

    I think the nausea is finally gone. For now anyway. Talking to the doc soon about how it’s going, so we’ll see what happens there. But so far so good.
    Haha, I didn’t have time to run from the visitors. Not would looking quite odd! But hey, every little step forwards is good. So I’ll try to keeep going!
