I didn’t make it out of bed this morning. Sadness had me in its grip too tight. At least I managed a good exercise session when I did get out. I will have to go goating tomorrow, most definitely. I wish I could fast-foward to spring.
Oh by the way, last news about my brother is that he’s doing well. Still some seeping, but nothing they’re alarmed about. And the kidney is doing good. Hopefulyl we’ll be having that soup together soon.

For a while the Danish Weather Institute have displayed a message on their site saying they were working on a new, updated design. Today that design launched. Would you like to guess what my feelings are?
I’ll give you a hint. I have previously complained about how everything gets worse. All websites and programs and operating systems and gadgets and everything. At some point they become pretty good. And then they keep changing and inevitably it gets worse. Less user friendly, less safe, less privacy less I Can Tell What That Is.
I hate change. And I hate modern webdesign. And I hate government institutions that spend fortunes on doing stupid things. Everytime a government system gets updated it leads to massive money costs and unfriendly user experiences and sometimes crippling their departments. I read something about a new IT System in the hospitals, yeah I’m sure that’ll go well.
Grumphley. Okay, done complaining. I’ll go back and see if I can figure out what the weather is going to be like tomorrow. See you in 5 hours.

Good goat times today. I needed that.
Lots of fun. It was a good day for having goats on my back. Milo eagerly did it a couple of times. He’s always happy to do that. Then I wanted to see if I could teach the newbies to do it. But Mia was standing right next to us, so that kinda got in the way. But then.. suddenly somethiing very heavy was pressing me down. Haha. Mia actually jumped up on my back. She was only up there for a second, but wow I did not expect that. We haven’t done that in years, not since those famous videos from the old playground of her standing on my back and eating the leaves from the tree above. She’s considerably heavier now. Couldn’t help laughing, though.
But that’s not all. A little later the little goat boy got up there too. For considerably longer. And I didn’t even have to teach him. Usually I use treats to lure them to do it and then they get the hang of it. But he was happy to just do it for the lols. What a cute, talented boy. I couldn’t even give him a raisin for it, because earlier in the day I suddenly saw my reasing bag being caried across the ground by the wind. Empty. I’m not sure what happened, but I bet Milo pulled it out of my pocket and ate all the raisins without me even noticing. Sheesh.
But the little boy DID get some raisins before that. Yes, he’s started on the treats. Just a little. They get so eager when they get their first taste of treats. And they don’t know the difference between a finger and a raisin at that point, so they get veerry nibbly.
Later still he fell asleep in my lap. Safely tucked into my arms. I love that about goat kids. They run around like silly geese and tire themselves out and then they have to take a nap. He’s such a darling. Not afraid of being picked up at all. I remember Milo and Sky when they were younger, they did like being held and sitting in my lap, but they also liked to play the ‘you can’t catch’ me game when you went to try to pick them up. This lil boy doesn’t even flinch. Dozing off in my lap. I wonder what he dreamt about. Probably raisins.
I did also get pooped on. Not while he was standing on my back haha. But at some point after he was sitting in my lap I found a single goat berry on my pant leg. I should have framed it and sent it to Keiko.

Further nice stuff from today. I got to see Ophelia, for the first time in months I think. I’ve been getting used to going so early in the morning that often I don’t see any people really, other than visitors and the guy who let’s the animals out in the morning. So it was good to see her. And we may have a name for the baby boy. I don’t think it’s official, but Ophelia told me that some kids had been calling him Nuller, and that she thought it fit well. So that may end up being his name. I know it probably does not sound very good to English speaking folks? In Danish a ‘nullermand’ is sort of a piece of fuzzy lint in your pocket. I think. So a nuller could be a little fuzzy thing.
‘Nuller’ also literally means ‘zeroes’ but that’s not what we’d think of when it’s a name. We’ll see if it sticks. It’s time for them to have names already!

I had an interesting dream last night. Well, interesting to me. Not so much to you guys. I was uconvering old memories. But they weren’t memories of my own life. I think they may have been memories of another dream. Or if you want to get mystical about it, from a past life. Or maybe just nonsense, who knows.
I Was talking to my parents and brother about our chilhdood growing up. And these memories kept coming back. But as I said, not memories from my actual life. But it felt so real, like things I had lived through. I wonder how many lives we live through in our dreams, or otherwise.

A little bit of progress. The first weeks I had to go and put hay in 3-4 different places to make sure everyone could eat in relative peace. Now here they are all six of them eating in the goat house. Still split in a left and a right dining section. But it’s something.

No, I don’t have an imaginary friend. I’m not some kind of loser.

Sigh.

I woke up feeling really depressed. Like, emo teen angst sadness. “I just want to fade away” *dramatic sigh*. Eventually I managed to drag myself out of bed. I turned on my phone. There was a message from my dad. “Hey, I wantto come over and drop off some soup, call me back”. It’s as if the soup gods knew I were in need of help.
So soon my fridge will be full of mama’s soup, and I’ll be eating soup all weekend. That certainly improves the outlook of things. Even my inner angsty emo teen loves soup.

My throat is hurting. You’d think it was a ploy to get soup, but I already have soup.
I’ve been sleeping with the heater on the same level during days and nights, the other night I figured I’d turn down the heater at night because you don’t need a really warm apartment when you’re asleep. Apparently you do. I woke up with a slightly sore throat. Now it’s just hurting. But at least I have soup. So i’ll have some more soup. I’m feeling fine apart from the throat, hopefully it won’t escalate into anything more.
I need to achieve hibernation until spring.

Quick status: My throat feels a little better. Hopefully that means it’s just a big nothingburger and it’s almost digested.
Had a quick look on twitter and remembered that everyone is the worst and world is not worth saving.
About to change my mind with soup and Rick & Morty.
I’ll report my findings poste haste.

How many times can you eat soup in a day before you have a problem?
And by have a problem, I mean run out of soup. That’s the problem. The problem is you have no more soup. That’s what I meant in the first sentence when I talked about having a problem. Please refer to footnote 3-17 if you need further explanation.

Stray thought, I miss comics. Good old fashioned printed ones. Do they even still make those? It’s probably all digital now. I can’t read them whether it’s paper or digital anymore. Not in an enjoyable way. But back in the day. I spent so much time in ‘bogshoppen’ looking at old, used comics. Buying them, bringing them home, bringing them back to swap for others. Gold age (I think it was) Superman. Or the bigger comic album. Lucky Luke and Asterix. The Marvel Star Wars comics. Flipping through pages. Calvin & Hobbes. I must stil have the huge complete box laying around somewhere. One of the few comic related things I kept after losing my eyesight. So many memories. I wonder what it’s like to grow up as a kid today. Lots and lots of things are better now. But I don’t envy them. Social media and phones everywhere and everything so rough and yeah, I don’t know if I’d survive as a kid today. And movies to day all suck. i’d take a bad movie from the 90s over anything in the cinemas today. And we did just fine with 1 national tv channel, and then we were spoiled when we got A SECOND channel. And then we got cable and I could suddenly watch The Simpsons and MTV. With teletext, that’s how I met my first girlfriend. Who was also my only girlfriend. And there was snow at christmas and you couldn’t talk on the phone while surfing the net because it was all one cable, which is a thing that connected devices back then doncha know. You get off my lawn, YOU GET OFF MY LAWN RIGHT NOW.

I’m heading to the bed.
Not sure how I’m feeling. Throat is better, but not back to normal. I was coughing for a while, but it seems to be gone. A little snotty, maybe? I feel like I could wake up tomorrow feeling completely fine. Or I could wake up sick. We’ll see I guess. Maybe I’ll wake up in a wig and a dress snuggled up to the fullsized academy award statue under the covers. Or in a biohazard suit snuggled up with a lifesized ET doll. You just don’t know.
Place your bets.

How am I feeling? Not too bad, but not great. My throat was hurting last night, but it’s not bad right now. But not normal. I feel a bit woozy and weak. I think I probably have a mild cold. It so happens that I have people working in my apartment (sometime between 8am and 4pm yay) so I have to stay home anyway. A couple of days of relaxing and eating soup is just what the doctor ordered.

Good goat times today. happy silly goaties. I found out that the new goats don’t actuallly hae names yet. That surprises me. I don’t think I will get to name them. But I do hope they get names soon. If for nothing else than so I can get better filenames than 190128_newgoats1.jpg, 190128_newgoats2.jpg etc. (NSPAA date format for lyfe)
There are some dominance games going on. Especially between Mia and the lil not-mamma. She’s the biggest of the new ones, I guess she was probably boss at the old place. Mia is very keen on showing her that in this hood, Mia is boss. There’s some grunting and snorting and humping going on. Lil not-mamma is taking it pretty chill. She seems to be ahead of Milo and Sky in the hierarchy, for now at least. We’ll see how it all goes. They just have to get used to each other and settle the hierarchy.
The lil boy is so darn cute. I love sitting with him. I wish he had a little playmate, but ok his mother is almost kid-sized anyway haha. And he’s got me.
I keep hoping Mio will poke her head around the corner. It’s strange not having her here. It still seems like she just went inside for a rest or something. That she’ll be right out. Sigh.
But at least all the new goats are a good distraction. Good goat squad.

Milo and Sky got a little tired of the newbies…
It’s funny, I would have thought Milo and Sky would be more dominant, since they’re on their own home turf. But the newbies, especially the lil not-mamma, seem to a little stronger. Everyone is still getting used to the new order of things, though. Hopefully they will all gel into one big, happy goat circus.

Ten months ago I uploaded two short clips of Justin Timberlake on SNL, doing a soup song/dance, to my alt youtube channel. One of them has more than 15,000 views. The other one has 0. Literally “Views: None”. I find that pretty amusing.
I guess “Soup there it is” ranks higer in the search algorithm than “Souperdoup”.
Most of the other videos on that channel have between 1 and 30 views. Hope I get that phat ad revenue soon!

Heading to the bed. I have been having a hard time getting into the dreamscape lately. I’ve had good dreams, but not those long deep journeys with semi-lucid trances. Maybe it’s because the nights are cold now. Or maybe it’s all the things that have been going on with goats and family, maybe the balance is off. There’s still a blanket of sadness over my head. Maybe I just need to sleep harder. I’ll go try. Don’t wait up.

Things I appreciate:
When your screenshots of hilarious memes, deep thoughts, and provocative politics don’t have the colour-scheme of black text on white background.
Fun fact: I can manipulate the colours and fonts of the text you post, but I can’t do that if it’s a screenshot.
Okay, I know most of the screenshots posted originate from Other People From Elsewhere. But if you ever find yourself making a screenshot that you want to go viral… consider that a white background is problematic for a lot of visually impaired people.
