Good goat times today. A lovely, summerly day. It got up past 20C/70F. That’s what I consider summer. Very nice. Unfortunately we didn’t get much time in the green. I’d justlet the goats out when Alice came over. There was a big gathering of kindergarten visitors, they were doing some big happening. And Alice felt it would be better if the goats stayed in the pen. Too bad. It would have been a lovely day to sit and watch the goats graze. Instead it was a lovely day to sit and watch the goats be lazy in the pen. I did go and pluck some branches with fresh leaves so they could have some green. There’s green in the pen too of course, but they never eat a lot of that. The grass is greener on the other side I spose. We had several visitors at the fence too. Big and small. So the goats got to entertain and they graciously allowed the kids to bring them more fresh leave. Always eager to help the kids have a good time..
And then just as I started walking home the clouds rolled in and it even started raining a little. Refreshing on a warm day really.
Good to get my head away from the computer. I kind of feel like I have ran my head into a brick wall, all the little issues that needs taking care of and things that need syncing and backlogs of editing and tv and yuotube piling up. I miss Windows 7. But hey ho, oinkwards and upwards.

There was a bit of confusion today as I brought the goats right back in after letting them out. Milo and Sky went to the rocks and were like “we’re waaaaiting”. There was a considerable amount of protesting bleating. I could have sworn I took a picture of Mia standing there in front of the rocks staring at me. But I can’t find it in the folder. She stood there for ages just looking at me like “I .. I don’t know what’s going on. Why are you heading back to the goat house? This is not normal, I don’t know what to do now”. Maybe Mia thrives on routine as I do.

Accidentally had my camera aspect ratio set to 1:1 instead of 4:3 for some of today’s photography. Oh well. Milo still look goood.

Having some performance problems with my new PC, and I’m not sure if it’s something to be concerned or not. And it’s doing my head in all the googling and testing. Oh bloody heck. I think I’ll sign off now. Sleep for a long time. Then come back and do my head in again. Time to dream.

Ah, I love that exercise with the sun and spaceheaters blearing. The sweat running down my naked back as I flex my shoulder muscles. Sexy, right? You probably need a cold shower now? You too, ladies.

Good goat times today. Hot hot hot. Above 25C/77F. That’s not something we get every day here. Although last summer we kinda did. But might have been the first time this year. For the first time I felt I had to bring a bottle of iced drink. Came in handy for the walk home.
The goats were panting and shaking in the heat too. When I went to refill their water bucket, Mia, Milo and Sky dived right in. To drink, I mean. There’s no diving board on the bucket. They needed the water.
We had good times out in the greens. Spent most of the time walking along the goat and horse pens, on the isde down to the path. We haven’t been there much, so there was good greens. And people walking by on the path enjoyed the sight. One guy came up to us and said “it’s like being out in the country! They’re so cute” and then as he left “Have a great day!”. There was an older many who came over to us too. We had some problems communicating. He was speaking sort of half Danish and half Englsih, but neither was very good and he made noises that didn’t even seem like words, not in another language either. He wa gesturing and I was having a hard time understanding him. It kinda triggered my phobias. Communicating with humans is hard enough when you understand them, when you don’t even understand them it gets even more awkward. But he did seem very nice, kind of old and a little frail. He sat down with me and watched the goats for a while, and petted them when they came close. Even if we don’t speak the same language, we can all appreciate the language of watching goats.
Several kids got some facetime with the goats too. There was one young mother who was wearing a long skirt and Milo kept trying to eat it. She’d laugh and move away but he’d just follow her and keep trying. Yeah, I think we have a bit of a skirt-chaser on our hands..
I think it rained last night. It was quite humid and hot in the morning. And the grass was a bit wet. Which meant I got some nice wet hoofprints on my neck as Nuller kept jumping on me. It’s like a struggle trying to keep him off, he’s SO determined. Unstoppable little fella. So cute and cuddly.

Caught the tail end of a big Sky yawn. Or, mouth end. I’m pretty tired too. Off to bed, perchance to dream. Bleat you later.

Hey, in case I haven’t told you lately, I appreciate you being part of my social circle, in whatever way you are. I don’t have much of a social circle outside the computer (of humans, I mean). So it matters a lot to me to have people on the interwebs who care about me and what I do. Thank you.
Also can I borrow $500 ?
Just kidding. I need more like a grand.
No no. All I need is your unquestioning devotion and a sample of your dna plus your fingerprints.
No really, I love you. That’s why I’m going to display you all in glass cabinets.

When you realise that you had your usb 3 devices hooked up to the usb 2 ports. Amirite? At least that solves that problem.

We got birds in the goat house again. They have a nest in there. Sometimes they’re just running around on that little edge around the walls.
