Ages Of Mud
Today will be a good day. Whatever it takes.

Good goat times today. Grey and cold, though. I miss summer already. It’s gone from around 20C/70F to around 15C/60F. That’s just enough to start making me feel uncomfortable with my bad circulation. At least it didn’t rain too much today. We even got a couple (literally) of minutes of sunshine. But yeah. It’ll be like 7-8 months before I’ll be running with Mia in the pasture again. I wish we lived somewhere warmer. Just walking there today, I went pretty early so it was almost dark. Cold, dark, windy. Ugh. It affects my mood a lot. Did I mention I miss summer?
Anyway, back to the good parts. The goat parts. I was there first so I gave everyone their breakfast. A38 was snarfing all her goatpills down, I didn’t even need to add raisins on top to get her to eat them. So that was good. And she got some other goodies too. When I’m the one letting them out we have to go through the main door. Which is now leading into a mudslide. So you can imagine Mia and Mio weren’t to keen on going out that way. Poor babies. Once we were out they just stood there looking at the mud and looking at me like “What are we even supposed to do with this?”. They’re a lot more subdued when it’s wet and muddy. A38 spent a lot of time sitting in the shelter while I sat with the big girls around her rocks and the crossbeam there. Good sweet cuddling time.

Good part of the day went like this. Where’s Yogi? Under the roof that the camera was perched on.

You know you’re living in a magical future when you keep seeing people post about not having any internet. HOW ARE YOU POSTING ON THE INTERNET THEN YOU WIZARD PERSON.
I know I know. Future people have internets on their hand-operated cellular telemophones. Maybe I’ll get one of them some day.

I was writing the word thing out of my head but I accidentally spent a couple of hours geeking over Twin Peaks with the Katt and now here we are. Also, the newest episode of Ricky & Murtaugh is one of my favourites yet. Currently reading: Men Without Women by Haruki Murakami, one of my favourite writers and my second favourite Murakami. I have read almost all the Murakamis that are out as audiobooks, so now I’m just slowing down to make the last ones last forever. Maybe I should do like Desmond on Lost and save one Murakami book to be the last book I’ll ever read. I should probably make it a short one, just in case I get a fatal disease and the doctor tells me I have 3 days left to live. New favourite band: Alt J. Or at least I’m really digging the discography at the moment. Has anyone read through all this and know them and have an opinion on them? PS My world is still swaying like a willow in the wind on the bank of a great river. Maybe this is what hamsters feel like when humans keep prodding their cages to make them move. I am not a hamster, I will not be moved. Hmm, I guess I should have written the word thing instead of this thing.

So, I didn’t comment on the anniversary of 9/11. I didn’t really have anything to add to what everyone else was posting, and I’m pretty sure no one who was alive and of a certain age when it happened will ever forget.But anyway. Because of the geeking out over Twin Peaks last night I found myself scrolling back in the timeline of the alt.tv.twin-peaks newsgroup. The archives go way waay back. And it’s fascinating to look back on what people were saying long ago about Peaks. Speculating about the future, about things that are now explained. Or things that no longer make any sense in that context. And as I found myself scrolling futher down, further back in time, I saw the years counting down. And when I got back to 2001 it dawned on me that I was getting close to that date. Almost dreading what I’d see. It’s one of those milestones in history, one of the defining points on the timeline.No real point to all of this. Just struck me how when you look back there are things that you cannot unsee. Even if the towers fall, you can’t see past their legacy.

Guys, if you hear any nasty rumours about me and the parrot don’t believe it. It never happened, I don’t even have a hammer and as far as I’m concerned it’s a waste of time to go looking for the pirate’s treasure.

That’s it for today. I’m off to explore dreamland. If you need to reach me, leave a message with the parrot. Just… don’t mention anything about hammers or pirates. And for goat’s sake don’t give it any sugarlumps. I don’t want to have to go through cold turkey with that hotheaded parrot again.
Squawk the parrot “nevermore”

Good goat times today. I almost didn’t make it out. When the alarm went off this morning I went “nope” and rolled back into dreamland. But a little later I did manage to get myself going. I wasn’t feeling great, but I know the goats are always the best way to feel better. Bit of a cold day when I got outside. Did I mention I miss summer? Hanging out with the goats and horses was just what I needed. Such a happy spot. Later on we got a little rain. And then the sun came out and for a little while it felt almost like summer again. And then just as I was about to leave it started raining. Hard. So I was ‘forced’ to stay a while longer. Sittingi n the shelter with Mia and Mio. Listening to the rain dance on the tarp on the roof. It’s a really nice place to be in the rain. With two snuggly goats in close quarters. Watching them watch the rain, in between cuddles and treats. When in doubt always go with goats.

I’d just like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has posted about the new IT movie on Facebook. Because last night I dreamt about A KILLER CLOWN CHASING ME AND MY FRIENDS. %/&8&(#.
Haha. It’s a good thing I don’t mind nightmares. I haven’t seen the new IT yet, but I think the clown in my dreams was more like the old Tim Curry version. The funny thing is that I woke up because I kicked something off my nightstand. I guess I was fighting the clown and did a karate kick in my dream and then I did in my bed too. Hi-yah.

Heading off to dreamland. So, if you don’t see me again. It was probably the clown. It’s always the clown.

No killer clowns in my sleep last night. I guess that means I have escaped.
OR it means the clown has escaped and is now roaming the real world looking for me. Hahaha. Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean there isn’t a killer clown out to get you.

I love that thing when you’re giving a goat a treat and they sort of open half their mouth like this.

Is it possible to get MORE depressed when you increase your dosage of anti-depressants? Asking for a tulpa.
