I wanted to get out to see the goats today. But I had another bad night. And didn’t make it out. I feel kinda like a dinosaur trapped in a tar pit. A big fat dumb dinosaur. Gotta lighT?

I’m going to have to have an intervention for my skeleton. I’m pretty sure it goes out and parties every night, that’s the only explanation for why I wake up feeling like my skeleton is hung over and cracked.

Cold and rainy day today. I figured with my flailing health it wouldn’t be a good idea to be out freezing in the rain. Instead I slept too. Oh well. The forecast for the rest of the week seems cautiously optimistc, so hopefully I can get goat time very soon. I sorely need it.
Thanks you all humans for your support and company

This is Calby. He’s Danish, apparently. I only just discovered him. I dig his vibe. Oldskool. A lot, if not most, of the young Danish acts that I see coming up (and admittedly, I am not keeping up wtih the Danish music scene very well at all) are more rnb or hiphop inspired and that’s my scene. This, this is more my jam. Classic guitar and strings and a great voice. Just feels down to earath and real.
Music, good for what ails ya.

Good goat times today. Finally, someone let me out of my cage.
Pleasant temperatures, a little humid with a couple of raindrops here and there, but some nice sunshine too. Not too bad. Just good to be back with the goat squad. Just hanging out and relaxing, handing out treats. Getting my shirt muddy from hoofprints. I was sitting on the bench and Mia was up on the table and kept putting her hoof on my shoulder and chest. Yeah, that’s one for the laundry.
Had some nice visitors too. Especially one, I guess it was a mother with a little boy and girl. They came over to the fence and were calling for the goats. So I went over to them, to get the goats to follow. “Thank you for coming over, now the goats will follow you” the woman said. We had a nice little chat. She asked if the little goats were babies, and I told her they were a couple of years old. “Just like you, Emelie. Not quite a baby but not a grownup either” the woman said. The little girl was very sweet. She saw me giving Mia a peanut and asked if she could give the goats treats. So I gave her some pasta that she quickly handed over to Mia. The little boy was a bit more shy, but they were all very nice and enjoyed getting some time with the goats.
I can feel I’m not in tip top physical shape, though. After a couple of hours I started feeling a little woozy. I’m glad I have the bus pass to make the trip home easier. I could feel my back starting to act up too. An hourlong walk would have had me in terrible pain I think. Now I’m just feeling pretty tired.

Damn. Got some bad news. My dad is doing worse. His back and leg are hurting. He said that he’s walking worse now than before the surgery. So that’s really bad. He’s hoping to be able to get checked at the hospital very soon. Sigh. He was doing so well. I worry about him. This isn’t good for my mental state. But nevermind that, I just hope he’ll be ok and better again soon.

Oh boy. Everything’s just sweller and sweller.
Got a call yesterday from my dad. Their computer was malfunctioning. I think they have been hit by the known “missing profile” bug when Windows 10 gets updated. Because ¤&¤/¤ Microsoft thinks it’s a good idea to forcefully update people’s PCs at least 2-3-4 times a year, whether they bork people’s computers or not. Now bless my parents, but they aren’t exactly.. computerly literate. And the missing profile bug is too complicated for me to fix over the phone. So yesterday evening I was getting ready to head out and visit my parents. Luckily, my dad managed to.. not fix the problem but find a way to get his browser working. Which was important, because he was waiting to hear back from the hospital. So that was the main thing, and I didn’t have to go over and fix it yesterday. I will have to go over and fix it at some point, but I’m not sure now is the best time. Because my mother has apparently come down with a fever. And my dad said he felt like he may be getting it to? Now he says, to my concerned inquiry, that he doesn’t think i’s the corona. But I mean, it’s hard not to think of the corona. And our whole damng family is a highrisk clusterfork. So hey, while you’re sending good thoughts for my dad to get better also kindly send good thoughts for them not having the corona.
Oh and my dad will be going in for an mri on July 31st I think it was. Although he’s going to try to see if he can’t get it moved up and get it done sooner because we feel it’s rather urgent in his current situation.
Meanwhile, I have reverted to my old sleepinh schedule of staying up long and sleeping long. This works a lot better for me, although I’d like to try again to get back to a proper sleeping schedule. But right now I just need to survive. Because I feel severely deperessed and worried and and anxiety ridden and hopelessful. I slept long and dreamt superwell last night. That helps a little. Physically I feel.. better? I think. The long sleeps make me feel better, I just have to make sure I don’t accidentally sleep for 30 hours and wake up with every muscle screaming in pain and my tongue chewed up. I won’t sleep without an alarm clock set to save me, hopefully that will mean it will be ok.
So yeah. We’ll see. Hopefully my parents don’t have the corona. Hopefully my dad can get checked out as soon as possible. Hopefully I can get my parents computer fixed. Hopefully I can sleep ok and try to stop self medicating with sugar. Hopefully I can feel physically ok and kepe seeing the goats and just keep going.
Thanks everyone for listening, if you listened. I appreciate you all caring about me. Right now I just feel like giving up on my self and everything. But hey I must have some tiny value if there are people who care. Maybe I don’t know. Sigh. And that’s just the domestic stuff, meanwhile the plague is back and the world burns and ok I’ll stop now.

Well. I had been planning on a goat trip this morning. I did not make it out. Couldn’t fall asleep for a lot of the night. Got pretty depressed and stressed. When I started actually falling asleep I woke up again with a runny tummy and had to do some toilet runs.
I’m kind of just feeling sad and tired. My vision isn’t great either, it gets affected by the lack of sleep.
I guess I’ll give it a little more time, trying to adjust to a proper sleeping schedule. Maybe I’m just not meant for a regular day rythm. I feel better sitting up late and then sleeping late every other day or so. It’s an irregular schedule, but at least I then get enough sleep and I have the freedom to do it, so I don’t know. I just have to make sure not to accidentally sleep for 24-30 hours on a hot summer night/day. It’s still my best guess that that was what happened to me and knocked me out.
But bla bla bla. I’ll see how it goes. I missed the goats today but hopefully I’ll get there soon. Gotta get things sorted out longterm, a week or two of getting adjusted is fine if it gets me to a better place where I can be there for the goats more regularly.
Hope you’re all doing okay out there! Feeling a little disconnected from everythingm, life goats people. Don’t forget about me even if I’m flakey right now!

Good goat times today. Managed to get up in the morning and head out, thankfully. Although it was a bit of a dreary day. Around 15C/60F and rain on/off. Managed to get quite soaked on my way home. Let’s hope that doesn’t make me sick(er). Grabbed a hot shower and turned the heat on.
The goats don’t like the rain either of course. I found them all sitting together under the half-roof in the horse field. It’s lovely that they can all sit together. I mean, they still have their little territorial episodes, especially when I’m there with treats and afection to be fought for. But the fact that they can sit together all six of them like that, that makes me happy.
And we got out and ran around in the field for a while during the sunny spells. I’m strill takign it fairly easy, just trying to get back in the hang of things. So far so good.

Hey, let’s get the brain trust together and figure out the best response to a global deadly pandemic.
I know, let’s go through with withdrawing from tthe World Health Organization !
America, the country with the biggest brain in the world.
And you know the average Trump supporter is going to rally round and applaud it because it’s more important to make a park of monuments.
You know, there’s no love or honour or respect for your country or your god if you’re blindly forcing and being forced to kneel or not kneel or salute the flag or the god whatever. It means NOTHING when you want people to not have the choice. What’s your freedom of speech worth if you don’t want people to have the right to protest? Independence day, as long as you follow the rest of the flock to the slaughter. Just blindly follow the commandments and I’m sure you’ll get into heaven on a technicality, I’m pretty sure that’s how god works. BLINDLY FOLLOW TECHNICALITY WTIHOUT COMPASSION AND YOU’RE GOOD.
Ahh, I must be getting better if I’m back to ranting on fb.
I’ll try to stop. I just had to fart this out.

Religion is the number one cause of suffering, misery, bigotry, hatred, inequality, war and injustice in human history, and the fact that you let your madeup gods cause all this hurt is staggering. [deletes rest of rant] don’t worry, the rich old white men are definitely who Jesus wanted you to follow. We all know Biden and Trump are the fucking shining pillars of compassion and justice..

Good goat times today. The weather picked up a bit, warmer and good bit of sun. Almost felt like summer again. Much better for us all. Did some runnning around in the field, and we had some visitors at the fences too. Kids getting leaves for the goats, which they were very appreciative of. Fun for everyone.
Just taking it easy and trying to get back into some kind of swing of things.

Ok, I’m feeling shitty so I’m gonna rant to take my mind off it. *spins topic wheel*. Ah, monuments and statues. Here’s my hot take, which I think most people will probably disagree with even the people whomst normally agree with my on the issues. I think statues and monuments are dumb and ugly. All of them. They are big ugly birdshit magnets and they’re a waste of money and space. You don’t need statues and monuments to preserve history. That’s ludicrous. You look at a statue and you already know the history or you don’t. You’re not going to remember or forget historical figures or events based on whether there are statues. That’s what fucking history textbooks are for. That’s what documentaries on pbs are for. That’s what novels and movies and folk stories are for. Statues and monuments don’t preserve history, they glorify people and events and sometimes the glorify people and things that turn out to REALLY not deserve it. But even even if they glorify people and things that deserve to be glorified they’re still dumb. Spend that money on feeding the poor. Use the space to shelter the homeless. I’m not going to forget Hans Christian Andersen if there isn’t a statue of him. And i’m not going to praise some slave owning general just because there’s a statue of him. It’s painfully evident that humans aren’t going to learn from their history anyway, so tear down the damn statues. If you need to keep confederate flags around to remember your history, maybe your history isn’t worth remembering. If you’ren to learn from it then it doesn’t matter anyway.
I don’t have any cake and I feel like someone has to pay for this.

Denmark has registered its coldest July morning temperature since the 1990s. Almost down to freezing in places. It’s so cold that I can’t get Danish cucumbers in the supermarket and the tomatoes are garbage.
Also I can’t sleep more more than an hour or two at a time and I think Cthulhu’s landline is down cos I’m not getting any of its calls.

Didn’t have the best of nights. Shortly before bedtime I started having indigestion. Very unpleasant. Also some runny tummy. My own dang fault for not being able to control myself and what I put in my mouth.

You know what the fun part of indestion is? When you get that ‘heartburn’ thing and it feels like it’s behind your chestplate and you start thinking “is that my lungs? are my lungs hurting? is it covid? am I dying?”.
That’s a great way to spend the night.
“Luckily” I have experienced that heartburn feeling before, not often but enough to recognise what it was.
It’s almost gone now too.
