Good goat times today. Needed some goat therapy and the goats were able to squeeze me into their busy scheduled. Good for my mental health.
Tough weather tho. Down to -3C/26F. With windchill -9C/15. That is not nice for someone with my circulation. Poor goats. We’ve had nights down to -15C/5F. Brrrr. They seem to be handling it ok though. Although they were even hungrier than usual, if such a thing is possible. Nonstop competition and begging for treats. Milo got railroaded by Sassy a couple of times and Nuller was even more insistent than ever. I hope they get some extra hay, they deserve it.
Thankfully the forecast says warmer weather ahead. So hopefully we’re through the worst part.
We had some kids sledding down the path next to the pen today. Tis the season. Hopefully the goats can get some new christams trees soon. That’d be nice.
The cold affected my vision too. A traffic light that i can usually see just fine, well it was all a blur today. At first I thought my glasses were mucked up, but cleaning them did nothing. It’s not fun crossing a busy road when you’re not completely sure you have a green light… That cold wind right in my face got my vision all messed up. I think I Have oil in my eyes from the operations back in the day, I wonder if that stuff can freeze solid. Haha. That’s a freaky thought. A frozen eyeball. Anyway. It’s cleared up mostly now, back home and with the heat turned to supernova. Wish I could have brought the goats home to my apartment. I couldn’t even get them fresh water because the wate faucet outside was frozen solid. Hopefully someone came along and got them fresh water soon after I had to leave.
Spring can’t come soon enough.

Last night I dreamt that I hung out with Robin Williams. After the time travel one with David Bowie, I’m starting to wonder if my dreamscape is like the new trendy nightclub afterlife for celebrities.
Or maybe I’m just good at dreams.

Just got done watching chapter 1 of The Book Of Boba Fett.
Somet thoughts.

So much Tatooine! Mmm!
I enjoyed it a lot. It didn’t quite have the mindbeind oomph of the first episode of The Mandalorian. But it had a lot of good stuff. I’m not quite sure what to think of the Sarlacc pitt escape. The Boba & the sarlacc has been such a weird thing in the old Star Wars canon, there were multiple stories of him trapped there, him escaping, him maybe dying? Lots of speculation and joking and it was just a whole big thing. Actually seeing his escape? It was a little anticlimactic to be honest. I’m not sure I needed to see that. But after that there were jawas and tuskens and twi-leks and Mos cities and gammorreans. Oh boy. You know I love Tatooine. I’m not sure what everyone is going to think of the evolution of Boba and all the stuff. But I’ve never been the biggest Boba fan. I loved him in the original trilogy, as everyone did, but the turns his story and backstory took after that wasn’t really the stuff I loved the most. But i’m excited to see more of his story on Tatooine.
That last sandmonster was cool. I can’t remember if we’ve ever seen anything like that before? At first I thought maybe it was a krayt dragon, but that was no krayt dragon.
I’m excited to see more. Long live Lord Fett, master of Tatooine!

Four hours and change till midnight. New Years Eve is probably my least favourite day of the year. I get anxiety over all the constant explosions and voices outside. Conspirational hushed conversations and whines that you know are just people having fun but also sound like they could be from people in distress. And the thoughts of the goats in their house, possibly scared but certainly confused over all the noise. The worries of fires and people harrassing them. I just want this day and night to be over.
I had planned to order takeaway, but turns out the places I use are closed today. Which is fair, the only problem is that yesterday they all had their schedules saying they’d be open tonight. So I had to change my plans and do some fancy cooking. Boiled potatoes, carrots, peas and corn. I could have gone had dinner with my parents I’m sure, but I just don’t like going out today. I wouldn’t have minded sleeping through the whole day, but then that wouldn’t have been possible with all the explosions.
Yeah, I’m just a lonely loser newyears grinch!
But I hope you all have fun out there and that you and your family and furbies get through it safe and happily.
I’m sure we can all agree that next year will be better than this year, just like we agreed last year and the year before. This time we’ll get it right!

Aw damn. Rest in peace Betty White. What a forking bummer to close the year on.
I was kind of late to the Betty White game. I remember so clearly her guest appearances on Boston Legal. Back then I had no idea who she was. I just knew she was that really funny old lady who kept popping up and was always really great. It was only later I discovered that she was Betty White and she wasn’t some random actress who happened to get great guest parts on Boston Legal. There was a reason why she was always great and why her appearances always seemed special. It was because she was Betty White and she was pretty damn special.
99 red balloons in her honour. Thanks for all the laughs. And all the times I saw you trending on twitter and thought “oh no she can’t be dead”. They all get us in the end.

Other than Boston Legal I think I mainly got to know who Betty White was from her visits to Craig’s show. They were so great together. She was the perfect guest on the best talk show and they worked so well together. And it was only really after that I started realising who Betty was and what a great history, past presentand future, she had.
Thanks for all the good times, Betty.

Good goat times today.
My traditional, annual, January 1st goat trip. The day when I just want to stay home in bed and sleep off the anxiety. But I just worry too much about those darn goats, so I gotta get up and go check on them.
And they’re fine. Thankfully, knock on wood, there have never been any new year’s eve problems with the goats. I don’t think it’s a fun night for them, but as long as they get through it without getting hurt then that’s all you can ask. I’m always a little relieved when I turn the corner and see the goat house is still there, hasn’t burned down overnight..
And the goats were good and happy to see me. And I brought a couple of bags of goodies so we could have a little New Year’s party. Slightly spoiled. The goats, not the goodies. Just glad they’re ok, after the hard frost and the explodey night of big bangs.
We got some visitors too. A young couple with a little girl. I got the goats over to the fence so they could get some good goat time too. Petting them and laughing at the big pasta crunches and awing at Mia shaking paws with me. Hopefully I helped give them a nice start to 2022. And hopefully the goats will have a good 2022 as well. I’d like an uncomplicated year without problems, thank you. Make it so.
It was around 7C/44F with almost no wind. So that was quite comfortable. A bit foggy and wet, though. I look forward to spring and sunshine. But I sure would appreciate if we could stay above freezing for as much as possible until then.
Hope you all got into the new year okay. Thanks for being with me the past year, I hope you’ll hang in there and stick with me in the new. Maybe I’ll bring you a bag of goodies some day too.

Oh Mia. I was getting ready for our New Year party and I put the bags of goodies up on the roof of the shelter where no one could get to them… and then I turn around and look over and there’s Mia trying to get at them. For a second I thought she’d actually try to jump up on the roof, which would have been bad because she could have hurt herself. Even standing there on Nuler’s rock sliding her legs forward I was worried she could get hurt so I hurried over and got her down, but I did manage to take a photo on my way. Because even though I was worried I also had to laugh at her. Goats have a one track mind. Can’t blame her, if there had been a pizza box on the roof I probably would have tried to jump up there too.

For the premium subscribers here is some Behind The Scenes footage. This is me prepping for our big New Year Party. If you saw the photo I posted earlier you know what Mia is looking at the. The goodies still on the roof of the shelter. You can practically hear the gears turning in her heads. “Can I get to them? What’s he doing? Can I reach them? Will he try to stop me again? Should I go for them?”. I love how she’s looking back and forth from the goodies on the roof to me setting up the camera to film the party. Look at her stretcing her neck. I don’t know if evolution is the truth but this may be how giraffes evolved.

Speaking of Omikron and David Bowie.. did you know that David Bowie was involved with a computer game called Omikron; The Nomad Soul? I remember being fascinated by it, but I never got to play it because it came out during the time when I fell away from the world. Also I believe it was a bit of a buggy mess and too ambitious for the technical capabilities of the time. But it sounded fascinating. You could travel to this world and you could meet David in the game. An open world to explore. I always loved the games where the fiction was that you played yourself, that you were the one traveling to other worlds. You weren’t playing Mario or Sonic, you were playing yourself traveling to another world and exploring it. My favourite game series Ultima was like that. They had the player traveling through moongates to another world. Mmm. Open world roleplaying games, that’s the stuff. I always loved the idea of just going and exploring a world. Not some dumb ‘go kill the evil demon’ quest. Just go to another world and explore. That’s what the best movies, books and games do in a way. Let you travel to other worlds. Nevernding stories.
Anyway, I’ll shut up now. I wish I could have visited Omikron and said hi to David. Maybe he’s in there still. Hanging out.

Well I just got some sad news. My uncle Jens, my father’s brother, has passed away. Although he was in a bad state for quite a while so it’s one of those cases where it’s kind of for the better that he’s at peace. He was suffering from Alzheimers I believe. So bad that he’d barely react or recognise my dad when he visited him. Just existing without living, at that point. And they decided to take him off the treatment he was getting, and not long after that he passed.
I haven’t seen him myself in many years. That part of the family lives on Zealand and we live on the mainland. And obviously I am not the traveling or socializing type anymore. When I was younger we’d go visit from time to time, holidays and such. He was always very nice and kind and funny. I remember when I started losing my eyesight, he came over to help us fo a week or so. We found this acupuncture clinic that could possibly help, but there was a long drive back and forth and my dad no longer had a car by then. So Jens came over to our ‘side’ of the country and drove me back and forth for the treatments. They helped a bit at the time, although obviously didn’t fix me in the long run. But I always thought it was very kind and generous of Jens to come and help us out like that. He always seemed like a good man. And I sometimes wish I could go back and see my dad and him browing up. A completely different world back then. Anyway. Time only moves in one direction and we all have to get off the conveyor belt some day. And who knows what comes after that.
Rest in peace, Jens.

Good goat times today. Good to get out and get some goat therapy. A frosty morning. I almost slipped on icy pavement a couple of times. Thankfully there was barely and wind which made it comfortable enough to be out. Even though I had to break the icelayer out of the goats’ water bucket.
Got good kittytime too. I met both Nala and Heino in the morning, that doesn’t happen often. So we meowed a little. The kitties had drama later on though. First I think one of them tried to catch one of the hooded magpiecrows. It flew away, but the goats were a little perturbed that there was hunting going on in their pen. Later was worse though. Suddenly a dog came running fullspeed and barking, chasing one of the cats. I’m not sure if it was Heino or Nala. I guess some guy was out walking his dog on the path past the goat pen, without having it on a leash. I don’t think you’re supposed to do that. Well, the cat was too fast for the dog, thankfully. The goats were pretty scared though. The chase went right along their fence. They already don’t like dogs. For a second I was little worried if the dog was dangerous and might try to get into the goat pen. But it had no interest in that and the owner called it back and they walked on. But the goats needed extra treats to get over that. And the cats weren’t seen anymore that day.
Other than that it was just a lot of sweet relaxing. Among goats that are blissfully unaware of the stress and commotion of the holidays. All they worry about is whether the human brings enough treats. And he always does.

Hey, hey, hey! I got a selection of christmas cards, most of them the day before christmas. Sorry it took a while to take photos. But I want to give my sincerest thanks to Debbie Wilkins + Kathleen Murphy + Janet Duke + Deb & Sam from Iowa and my family for the cards and to Cyd Burk for the art and Keï Ko Moorakami for the drawing today that you can see on my timeline I think! Thank you everyone for thinking of me! It hasn’t been the best of christmasses, with my uncle Jens passing and some other stuff I don’t really want to go into. But I am thankful for the friends I have around the world and the love you show me. Every day I appreciate that there are people who care about me. Thank yous!
