Thank you everyone for participating in the thank you post. It helped steer my mind in a more positive direction. I never see any value in myself, but it feels good to know that there are people out there who get something out of my posts. It’s a reason to stick around.

Good goat times today. Twas a heavy thunder last night, and rain. But by the time I left home the sun was starting to come out. Only a drop here and there. And as the day wore on it got quite lovely. Might have reached the 20C/68F mark. Twenty degrees isn’t bad when it’s sunny out.
When I got to the goats, a group of elderly people were standing at the fence with them. As the goats saw me arrive they bleated and ran to me. Which amused the elders. “You didn’t even have to call for them!”.
We went out to the greens. Entertained the kindergarteners next door who petted and fed the goats through the fence. One kid was calling one of the goats “Mr Goat”, but I’m pretty sure he was talking to Lily. Another kid said “Watch out for the big goat, it’s very dangerous!”. Clearly someone hasn’t been face to face with the real threat. Mr Milo Goat.
But everyone was happy in the greens.

We spent a little time in the horse pen too. The horses are still on vacation. I’m glad the goats only do staycations.

Oh Oh I forgot. I ran into a deer today. I buried it in my back yard.
Just kidding. About running into it. But I saw it. I did. I swear. On my way home. Just walking away from the playground. Something ran across the path in front of me. It wasn’t very big, I thought it was a cat at first. But then out came something bigger. Now, I’m willing to admit that the fact that I’m 90% blind might cause some people to question my story. But what could it have been? It wasn’t a very big one. But bigger than Mia for example. My first thought was GOAT. But nah. It had a long face but the ears were… deerish. I wonder if the smaller animal was its baby? They came out from the parking space area of the residential area (the forbidden zone, you might remember from grandma videos). I wonder if they had been rummaging through people garbage there? Hmm.
I’m pretty sure it’s not the first time I’ve seen a deer. But the last two (I think) times it was fast and unclear in shade and I really wasn’t sure. This was running right across the path in front of me in sunlight. I’m pretty pretty sure.
Beyond the playground there’s a nature park area sort of thing. So I guess there are actually some kind of wildlife there.
Now I wonder if that dog scare we had in the alt pent was actually a deer? Remember that? I thought I saw a dog run along the fence. I still wonder if it was a wild or loose dog, why it didn’t clash with the goats when it managed to open the gate to the alt pen… maybe.. it was a small deer and it wanted to get in to the greens in the alt pen and then ran off when it was face to face with the goats?
I dunno man. But I’m pretty sure I saw a deer today. Unfortunately I had my camera packed in down in my backpack and it was gone before I could even think about getting it out. If only I’d had one of those smart phones with cameras.
Well anyway. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

By the way, in case you were wondering. Yes, we have super violent video games in Denmark too. In fact I believe the Hitman series is made by a Danish developer. If you want to look at whether video games glorify violence, fine. Just remember to go after Hollywood too, and all that. Just don’t bring it into the debate about mass shootings. You’re the only country with this problem
Only in the panhandle. And the walmarts. And nightclubs. And preschools. And kindergartern. And high schools. College. University. Concerts. You’re as likely to be killed by a toddler with a gun as by a refugee with a gun.
And so on and so forth. I blame Minecraft for the obsession with buildings walls. And Mario for the mushroom addiction epidemic. Monkey Island for the ebola virus.

So, I watched the new BH90210.
And that’s something I never thought I’d say.
If you know me, you should know I hate all the reboots and remakes and things. But I’ll admit, this isn’t the worst. If you’re going to revive an old show, this is a fun idea. I don’t think I’ve seen it done like this before. It combines two of my favourite things. Celebrities playing horrible versions of themselves. And nostalgia. I do have a lot of nostalgia for the original show. The first seasons at least. That was back when we had two national tv channels and shows coming in from America were often a big deal amongst the Danish kids. I lost interest in the show after the first few years. But I do have good memories of the first ones. And you know, crushes on most of the girls too. As a lonely boy with no kind of social life with real girls, that’s how it would often go. I don’t think there was ever a single actress that appeared on Buffy or Angel that I didn’t have some kind of infatuation with.
And that concludes chapter one of My Life As a Hermit. In bookstores this fall.

I’m not a highly paid movie producer, so take my advice with a grain of salt. But I really think IT part 2 should start with oldtimey Michael Palin going “It’s” and then title credits.

Look at Mia’s reaction when I go for water. It kinda breaks and warms my heart at the same time. I wish I could stay with them all the time. Or I could goatnap them and keep them hidding in my apartment.

Outside, thunder. Again.
I think the real summer may be over. Forecast for the next 10 days is all below 20C/68F. Far cry from last summer. I hope we’ll have a mild fall at least.

I still can barely believe that catcalling is a thing that actually happens in real life. It would make more sense to call at actual cats. If I see a cat I find it hard not to meow at it. I wonder if cats think I’m an asshole?

I had some good dreams last night. The best by far was a Palle dream. In this dream it was known that when he passed away it had been foretold that he would come back. And as I sat with his lifeless body it suddenly stirred and he came back to me and I hugged him tight and he was alive. It was beautiful and if I had the choice I’d still be in that dream.
Another dream was a lot more sinister. Full of dark, disturbing stuff. My key broke off in the lock and a woman was helping me get in but when we got inside she attacked me. And there were large, dark birds hurling themselve gainst my window, trying to get in. And outside, in the back yard of my childhood home, there were strange rocks arranged in a line leading up like a lader to my bedroom window. And I was saying how my mind was creating things that were attacking me. And it was all quite disturbing. But I liked it. It was interesting.

Good goat times today. It started out grey and cool with little raindroplets here and there. The forecast warned that we could be in for some heavy rain, but that didn’t come while I was out. Instead the sun came out and there was a heavy, humid heat. Got above 25C/77F, and it felt thick. Last heat for now. We’ll get back to the usual Danish summer struggling to get to 20/68. Although we’re only just heading into August, so I guess there’s still a chance we could get more heat later on in the summer. And that’s the weather, now over to Ollie with the sports.
Oh wait, the goats. Yes. Took them out and they enjoyed their greens. We had some nice socializing too. Nelly came out of the kindergarten fencing with a boy named Milan. And they had some fun with the goats. Nelly is hip to the fact that Milo is a bit of a wildcat. She made sure to protect Milan from the savage beast. But Nelly is cool, she doesn’t get initmidated or angry at the goats, she held Milo off and they were almost playing and she likes when the goats jump up against her to reach the leaves above. She’s fun.
And our two older lady friends came by again too. They are always very happy to see the goats and appreciate the playground and animals and my connection with the goats. And we all agreed that it was nice to meet and talk like this regularly like we do. Good people.
And then relaxing in the pen, as the sun baked us. It’s still vacation in Denmark, but I think most of the people who have traveled abroad are back now, so there were more kids coming by. There was a trio of boys who asked questions and petted the goats through the fence, before they went off to play on the swings. The boys, not the goats.

Butt what?
The Nullerfunk seems to have lost a bit of his fluff. Maybe because he’s growing up, maybe because of the summer heat. I mean, he’s still got fluff. it just doesn’t seem as ridiculous as it used to be.

Oh for fucks sake. Not enough bleach to scrub the country afterwards. So much for winning those ‘happiest people’ polls. The worst thing is, no matter how many protests there will be, he’ll go home and say Denmark loves him and all the Fox news viewers will believe him because facts don’t matter anymore.
go to North Korea again instead, you sack of shit in a shirt.

1-4 times in a canoe! Intro trip in Sweden first year of gymnasiet (high school ish). A couple of times out on a Swedish river. You wouldn’t catch me in a canoe today, but hey we all have a wild and crazy past.
Congratulations to the winners!

Looks like real bad news from El Paso. I was looking on twitter and couldn’t figure out how bad it was. This is life now. Trying to figure out if it’s just a couple of people dead or if it’s a big one. Human life doesn’t hold much value anymore. It’s like a currency conversion. How much death before it’s even worth a headline? How many fatalities for it to trend on twitter? And then we wait to find out who did it, so we know what to talk about. Ban guns. Ban refugees. Build a wall. Thoughts and prayers. Good people on all sides, women and children first. And then we wait until the next one. The real world is a shithole.
