A couple of days ago was the 25th anniversary of Blur’s selftitled alubm.. ehm, Blur.
That was an important album for me. Around the time when my music taste was maturing I guess. Blur’s first albums were britpop, and I quite like them. They were quirky and fun and catchy. But with Blur they really grew and the songs became darker and more personal and I really loved it. I remember back in those days there was a big Oasis vs Blur thing going on in the media. I guess Oasis was the Rolling Stones and Blur was the Beatles. And I loved the two first Oasis albums. But then they just stagnated and bacame boring clichéd rock. While Blur grew and became much more interesting. And with Damon Albarn’s solo album and his Gorillaz stuff. Just much more inventive and deep. And I feel like the record Blur was the beginning of that journey. And the next album 13 was even better.
Those were some formative years. The year after came the releases of Eels’ Electro-Shock Blues and Smashing Pumpkins’ Adore. Those two albums are still my favourite records of all time. Deep and emotional and powerful and informed by loss and experimental and powerful.
Good times. Back when you’d watch music videos on mtv and go to the record store and look through racks of CDs. Put music albums on the wishlist for christmas.
Now you can find every video on youtube and every song on some mp3 site and it’s easy and accesible, but it’s not the same man. You kids don’t know what it was like you weren’t there man. Everything was better in the 90s don’t at me.

Put the crazies on the treet, give them guns and feed them meat.

Rest in peace Ivan Reitman. Growing up Ghostbusters was one of my most favourite movies. When I was young and had a vhs collection. I’m pretty sure ghostbusters was one of the movies I taped off the telly. You’d have the storebought movies with proper boxes and covers. And then you’d have the blank vhs tapes filled with movies, or endless episodes of the simpsons. In a cardboard sleeve thing. And i’d always take that sticky thing.. whatsitcalled. The word escapes me. The thing you were supposed to stick onto the vhs tape itself and write the contents on? That thing I would always put on the cardboard sleeve and write the conents on there like that. i can picture them in my head, rows and rows of vhs tapes.
Anyway. Ghostbusters was one of my absolutel favourites and I never got tired of it. It was a strange movie, a comedy ghost movie. But also to me it just felt really real. That librarian ghost.. it geniunely scared me. Seems silly now, but at the time it just.. felt so real. It was such a funny and cool movie. It’s still a big part of my vocabulary. The keymaster and the gatekeeper, there is only zuul, stay puft. And the old Commodore 64 game. I didn’t have the manual to it so I never really knew how to play it properly, but I just remember driving around in the big car hunting ghosts and listening to the great SID chip version of the song. The song. Who you gonna call? Its still so embedded in pop culture. I haven’t watched the Ghostbusters Afterlife movie but I have it downloaded and I intend to watch it soon. Sounds like it might not be amazing but at least gets things right and pays tribute to the old ones. Unlike the reboot which i do not intend to watch.
Anyway. Yeah. I looove Ghostbustes. I know he did a lot of stuff, but for Ghostbuster alone. Thnak you, Ivan. Hope you get a good afterlife.

Happy valentine’s day to all you lovely people out there. Thank you for all the love you show me, on a daily basis. You keep my old heart ticking.
I’m going to celebrate valentine’s day by going to bed early and sleeping the whole day through because I’m sad and alone, woohoo!
But seriously, have a good day. Love like your life depended on it. You never know when the heart breaks.

Good goat times today. Got out and got my goat fix. I’m sorry if I glorify the goat time usage, but what can I say. I’m addicted.
Cold grey morning, but some sunshine later on. Little by little we’re getting pockets of blue skies and sun. Feels good.
This week is winter holiday in Denmark. I guess that’s why we got a bunch of visitors today. At one point I was over by one fence with the goats talking to a group and when they left we headed over to the other fence where another group was waiting. We were in demand today! Well, the goats. And I did a fair bit of chatting with everyone. Answering questions. One of the most common questions? Is Mia the mom of everyone? No. she’s the matriarch of the goat pen, but she’s not related to any of the littles. There was a quite attractive young lady with a few daycare kids, who asked a bunch of questions. She remembered how there used to be posters up at the fence with everyone’s names on them. She was sad they weren’t there anymore. Me too. But they got torn down pretty fast. Shame.
The old lady with the old impaired man came by too, they always enjoy seeing the goats. And lots of little kids got to pet goats and have a good time. The goats got called sheep, which happens a lot too by the kids. And of course Sky got called ‘the baby’ which happens a lot too. And several people told me to have a nice day, which I always appreciate. Not everyone really talks to me, and I don’t blame them because even if I bring the goats to the fence I don’t usually engage with people a lot unless they make the first contact. If they don’t talk to me then I just let them have their good time with the goats. But it’s always nice when they make me feel like they appreciated the goat time. If it wasn’t for me they’d be looking at a bunch of goats from afar avoiding the mud!

Today will be a good day. Happy Mio Monday everyone.
I dreamt about Mio last night. In the dream I woke up in bed and there was something big lying next to me under a bunch of blankets. I uncovered the blankets and there was big ole grandma. Lots of hugs and cuddles proceeded. I wasn’t sure if it was real or not, because my eyesight was really bad. Normally in my dreams my eyesight is perfect or just not something that occurs to me. In this dream I was asking myself if it could be real, if Mio had really come back to me. But for a minute I thought it might be real because my vision was as bad as it is in real life, the same blind stripe down across my seeing eye. I wish it had been real, but I’m glad she visited me in dreams at least.

Other than the wonderful Mio dream I actually didn’t have the best night last night. First off I ate too much soup. I was bloated and had something like heartburn or whatever and had to make several stops to the bathroom. That one’s on me, I regret nothing. But I also had a bout of tinnitus. I have had it before in short spells. Like a loud tone in my ear that usually disappears almost right away. It hasn’t happened often, but maybe once or twice every 2-3 months. But last night I got both the higher tone I’ve had before and a sort of lower note one. And they didn’t go away. And I was lying in my bed thinking I just wanted to die because it was so uncomfortable. I managed to fall asleep and I had some kind of high-speed chase dream, I don’t know if the tinnitus affected that. But I woke up and the noise was still in my head. I did a soup deposit run to the toilet and went back to bed. And eventually managed to fall asleep again. And I woke up later in the night and the tinnitus tone was gone. At least the low one, which was the really uncomfortable one. I have to sleep with earplugs because I’m sensitive to noise and there’s always noise in the my neighbourhood. Even at night it’s not uncommon for me to hear music or television from somewhere else in the building. And the elephant younglings upstairs usually start dancing and howling around 6 am. The earplugs help against outward noises, but they can sort of amplify your inner noises. Like your heartbeat and stuff. Anyway I’m rambling. Thankfully the tinnitus noise seems gone. I hope it doesn’t come back. I feel bad for people who have to live with that. I guess you have to manage it with ambient noise and things like that, to drown it out.
Anyway. I had planned to go see the goats this morning but when I woke up in the morning I was feeling even more tired and depressed and I rolled over and stayed in bed. My mental state hasn’t been the best lately with everything going on.
Aaanyway, I’m going to go repeat prior mistakes and eat way too much soup. Why? Because it’s there.

On a brighter note, boy I love me some soup. I have enough for one more serving tomorrow. And it’s only because I’m completely physically full that I don’t just eat it all right now. Mmm.

Good goat times today. Managed to get out and get some goat therapy. Good for the soul.
It was a grey and muddy morning. But later on the sun actually came out. I got a little bit of time with blue skies and sun. feels like it’s been months since the last time that happened. I look forward to spring with lots of sunshine and dry ground, hooves crossed.
We had several groups of sweet visitors at the fence too. Some anti-Keikoers. “I don’t want to look at their butts!” one kid say. And we got a few “eww they’re pooping” cries. Ah well, at least they got to pet the goats a little, the ones I managed to lure over to the fence.
Now I think I’ll finish off the last of the soup and get ny belly up to goatsize.

I’m sad that I don’t have anymore soup. The tragedy of soup is that it doesn’t live as long as its owner. Wait, that’s pets. Well, soup too.
I wish I had an everlasting soup fountain. Where’s my cursed monkey paw?!
Mmm, curse monkey paw soup.

Watched the finale of the Book Of Boba Fett.
Some thoughts
.
.
,spoilerspace.
.
Unleash the rancor! Haha. I did not see that coming. When its claws came over the rooftops I was thinking “what the fffff” and then I realised it was the rancor. King Kong vs Robots!
I didn’t talk about the previous episode because of the personal stuff going on when it came out. But I just want to mention that I absolutely loved seeing Luke and Grogu. And Ahsoka. And Cobb Vanth! Oh you know I love cobb Vanth. I really wish they’d give him his own show. Sheriff Of Free Town. I gather Olyphant has previously starred in western themed shows, I may have to seek them out and then just pretend it’s a Tatooine western instead of America.
I loved the finaly. I know that Twilek majordomo isn’t as furry as the jawas, but I hope him and Amy Sedaris shack up and live happily ever after. And Grogu with the rancor. Omygosh. For a second I wondered if he’d try to eat the rancor, I mean it’s a big rancor but you know Grogu has an appetite. It was so sweet when they napped together. And Cad Bane. If you watched the CLone Wars and other animated shows you know him showing up was a pretty big deal. They did him very well in live action. I wonder if he’s dead dead or if he’s tv show dead. I was worried Cobb Vanth was dead too but thankfully they showed him in the bacta tank at the end. Not much hope for the gamorreans I guess tho…
Anyway. I really enjoyed the finale, and the show as a whole. As I have said many times, all the Tatooine stuff is just really what I love. And the how delivered so much of that. Perfectly. I can understand why big Boba fans might be a little disappointed. Two episodes he wasn’t even in it and the others it was sometimes a little hard to figure out what his motivation was, why he’d even want to take Jabba’s place and what the point of it all really was. If you’re a big Boba fan I can see why it might not have been satisfying all of it. But it was satisfying to me. The only thing that didn’t really click for me was the mod kids. I liked them okay but their introduction didn’t work for me. ‘Oh you got nothing to do, well you do now come work for me”. It didn’t really seem convincing. I was also a little bummed that the tuskens got wiped out, because their big episode where Boba was accepted into the tribe was some of my favourite stuff. Of course it was, expanding on Tatooine and Tusken lore, exactly what I wanted. Banthas. Yeah budddy,
So thumbs up from me. I hope we get more adventures of Fennec and Boba. And heck all the other characters. Just get me Tatooine; The Show.
At least we got more Tatooine coming May 25th when Kenobi starts. I’m looking forward to that!
Did they change the song at the end? I swear in the previous episodes I never heard the words Boba Fett but this time it sounded like dum dum boba fett boba fett dum dum boba boba FETT dum dum dum FETT. I liked the music, just like I did with the Mandalorian. It’s different from John Williams but I think it’s cool.
So anyway, it’s 4 am and that’s my Star Wars post. dum dum boba FETT boba FETT dum dum
Oh and Gonk droid. I will never get tired of Gonk Droid.

Does Sassy want a biscuit?
No. Sassy doesn’t want a biscuit. It’s going to be my new mission in life to get Sassy to taste the biscuits. I know if she just tries them she’ll like them. What goats don’t like baked goods?! She’s a funny old lady, she doesn’t like unfamiliar foods a lot of the time. That old wives tale about goats eating everything? Definitely not Sassy.
