Good goat times today. It warmed up a little. Up to 8C/41F. That makes a big difference, even though there was a harsh wind in the morning.
I was out early again. The goats were still in bed when I arrived. I slid the door open and was happy to see Sky sitting inside and Bella standing next to her. I thought Bella was sitting next to her actually, but looking at pics I took I think she was standing. I wonder if they were sitting next to each other before I opened the door. Luna was sitting in the bedroom with the hay. But it’s just good to see Sky inside with them, I was worried she might end up not being able to be inside with them. Hopefully they all get along more smoothly when not competing for treats and attention from me. At least they seem to be at peace at night.
Later on Red Sonja came out and joined us, which was nice as well. Jeanette checked with me how long I’d be there, because she had to go off and do shopping for things, so she wanted to make sure I’d be around so Sonja could stay out and not be left unattended.
And then the sun started rising and it was quite lovely. Several groups of visitors, lots of kids in the pen petting the goats. A couple laughing because “kaka is coming out of its butt”. Heehee. Lots of cuddles for the goats.
Yeah, a lovely day. Now i’m going to get soup to finish it in style. That’s the stuff.

I couldn’t get a good pic, it was so dark that my flash didn’t even want to go off. But here’s Sky and Bella in the morning. I wonder if Bella was sitting next to Sky. Probably she was sitting on the platform in the back. But I’m just happy Sky was sitting inside with the group.

Bella, rubbing her belly on the wheelbelly, I mean Wheelbella, I mean wheelbarrow.
Did Bella end up standing in the wheelbarrow? Try and guess.
Of course she did. Much to the delight of visiting kids on the other side of the fence.
Oh and I heard one of the daycare mommas reading the new sign, translating it to the kids and laughing. Thank you again, Carine!

Hanging with Bella.
I had a pretty good back day today, least back pain in a long time. I hope it’s a sign that things are getting better, but I probably shouldn’t get my hopes up.
We got a good deal of sun today, so I brought both pairs of filter glasses to try to compare. I think the new ones are actually better in sunshine too. My initial impression that they were worse in sharp sunlight seems to have been wrong. And I can definitely see clearer with the, other than with closeup text. But all in all it seems the new filter glasses are an improvement, and the ones for computer use are a big help, so that’s all good.
Bella says, shut up and give me a treat.
And is that a feathery butt in the corner?

Remember when Luna was a tiny little baby… now she’s a giant. I hope santa gets me a shrink ray for christmas.

Luna on the box, Bella on the rock, and lurking in the background to the Jaws theme is my mortal enemty, the shelter roof, just waiting for a chance.

Santa got wegovy, no more jolly fat man. Please leave milk and celery sticks out for him. Also due to tarifs there will be no presents to Americans this year. Make sure to tune in and watch the Rudolph: Blood And Honey claymation special. He’s rednosed because he’s sniffing the bodies.
Ho ho ho, put the Jesus Christ Stop It back in christmas!
It’s beginning to look a lot like coal in the stockings.

Wide load! One angle is more flattering than the other, Luna.
Someone actually asked if Bella and Luna were pregnant. Normally it’s Sky who gets those comments.

Luna is a not. Longer version of this on the goat page, but I just had to share this snortypants here.

Good goat times today. It was a rainy one. Steady rain all day, pretty much. It was a stay inside kinda day. And working hard to make sure Sky could stay dry. When I got there all three were inside together, which was good to see. But as soon as I got there, Sky got chased out. Once there’s treats and attention to fight for, the dominance games start.
But Sky had a good spot under the shelter roof when she was outside. Kept her dry. And eventually she came back inside. She even got to take a little nap, lying in the hay by the hatch opening.
Sweet visitors today, our regular groups from the neighbouring school. The visually impaired girl Beren. She’s always very polite. “I can pet?” “I can come inside?”. She’s so sweet, and loves petting and feeding the goats.
One of their adults came over too, wanted to make sure she wished me a merry christmas, since they won’t be back until after the holidays. She’s always really nice too, very sweet and complimentary to me. I appreciate their kindness.
I think Jeanette got the campfire going for them, and they were singing christmas songs. So that was jolly good fun.
Then I came home and did an hour on the bike. Phew. Always challenging to do goating and exercise on the same day, but feels good.
Now I’m gonna give it on up for Soupville.

Gotta wonder what the average American Joe and Josephine who voted for lower grocery prices think now that the golf kart terrorist is already walking it back before even taking over, meanwhile literal billionaire is acting like he owns America. Which of course he does he bought the election fair and square. Don’t worry, the elongated muskrat definitely cares about your grocery bill. It’s his top priority, right after the robot care genocide and invading Mars.
Anyway, just kidding. I know what they think. They think “we owned the libs lololol”. Dumkopf knows he doesn’t have to deliver anything. First they took the media, then they took the social media. When you control the entire conversation then you control the people. Just focus on the trans abortions and books turning your kids gay and all that. You’ll get your healthcare as an NFT. Can’t wait for Ivanka to be the first female president, YES WE CNT.
LA la lala lala falala and so on and so forth. It’s December 19th 2024 and I’ve already had it with 2025.
Anyway, let’s see what this does to the dwindling friendcount.

On a brighter note, let’s me talk about something I love instead.
I love Skeleton Crew, the new Star Wars show. I had zero excitement for it, it seemed like something I was barely interested in. Because it seemed like its own thing with no real relevance to the sage.
And that’s exactly what I’m loving about it. I didn’t realise how much I need some good old fashioned fun without deep consequences to the saga, without canon implications and characters that have been building for a decades.
Just fun. And yes, it’s somewhat manipulative, it’s Goonies In Space, it’s aimed at kids. But it works. It oes it so well. It’s so enjoyable. It remins me of the original Star Wars movies, without so much baggage and just designed to excite kids and young people.
If I ha been a teenager today I would have loved Skeleton Crew sooo much. And even as an adult I still do. It’s so nice to just sit down and enjoy Star Wars.
The kids are great, I love Neel. Lil elephunt boiii. And SM-33. Smee! The pirate stuff is fun, maybe sometimes a little on the nose. But still, fun. That Teek thing from teh Ewoks movies. I LOVED the Ewoks movies, I know they’re sheet, but I love them. I so wanted to crashland a spaceship and have adventures with Ewoks.
Yeah. Halfway through, two thumbs up from me.
Also two thumbs up for Matlock. I could have done without the Matlock branding, but I love the show. I wouldn’t mind if they finished the revenge arc and had Mattie realise that she can do a ton of good by continuing her law work and then just have her do case-of-the-week episodes. That’s my dream. More Kathy Bates please.
Finished Murakami’s The City And Its Uncertain Walls. I didn’t love it as much as I had hoped, I was so excited for a new Murakami book. I found it hard to get engaged with it at first. I was about halfway through when I really started feeling it. Getting into that Murakami mood. By the end I didn’t want it to end, so all in all I liked it. Bht not my favourite of his.
Now I’m reading a Star Wars book, because I’m a Star Wars fan after all. A new Mace Windu book. It’s pretty good, harmless entertainment so far. Mace was always cool.
I watched Dune. The old David Lynch one. I managed to get through it. Haha. I watched the extended versino, three hours. Way too long, and yet not long enough. It was a bit of a clumsy mess, aslog to get through at times. But it was also weird and fascinating and cool. Maybe it’s just because I’m a David Lynch fanboy, but I couldn’t help kind of loving it. Even if it was directed by Alan Smithee. The souper must awaken! The soup must flow! He who controls the soup controls the universe! And so on.
Okay, that’s all for this tiktok. Don’t forget to like comment and subscribe and ring them bells.

The amount of times I have to assaert I’m not a robot… it’s starting to make me question whether I may in fact be a robot. What if I’m a robot and I don’t know it. Damn you, captchas.

Did you ever notice that Mary Poppins is just Perry Mason spelled backwards?
Now that’s not true, but if it was it would have been pretty interesting.

With the platform lowered, Bella and Luna aren’t using the troughs along the wall so much to stand and walk on. But Luna is contemplating it.

Seeing the new Superman trailer I almost, ALMOST, want to watch a superhero movie for the first time in a decade. I’m not a crypto bro, i’m a Krypto bro. When you put the superdog in the movie, I may be interested.
Why isn’t there a supergoat tho? There must have been goats on Krypton, some of them may have been out grazing on an asteroid when the planet exploded, it practically writes itself. Give me a herd of supergoats. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY BITCOINS

Got a Pepsi & Protein delivery today. And I finally got a B & J! Going to enjoy some Ben and or Jerry’s tonight, save the rest for Christmas eve I think. But this time no mussels and no cheap plant based knockoff. Just a good old Benjamin and Tomholland. I think I’m running out of alternate name for BJs.
Anyway, the iced cream is for tonight. Right now I have some soup cooking up. Running hot and cold.
