My head is hurting. And I’ve been feeling tired all day. Maybe I’m coming down with something? Or maybe not. I bet it’s one of those two possibilities though!

So the stuff I wanted to tell can wait for tomorrow. Apart from one thing. When I got to the playground today Magnethe was very upset with me. The first thing she said was “How come Mads gets a tribute video when all I got – mmm nice carrots *glmph glmph* – when all I got was a collage? Don’t you love me too? It’s not my fault I didn’t win a prize in the animal show, they wouldn’t let me participate! I’m pretty sure I heard Kurt say that if they let me in the show then all the other animals wouldn’t stand a chance because I’m so wonderful! I’m just as good as Mads and I deserve just as much”… and she went on and on! So I finally had to promise to make her a tribute video too, just to shut her up.

Done and done. And then some.

I also uploaded both videos to my own webspace. In case you want to see the real good version. As I call them. Youtube is fine for a quick view, but if you download the full versions then you can appreciate the photos at their (almost) original size. Which is a lot nicer. So here:

Tribute to Magnethe

Tribute to Mads

Of course you have to be pretty crazy to want to watch 4-5 minutes of goat photos in the first place. I have to keep reminding myself that not everyone is a nut like me. Some are cashews some are walnuts. Some are begonias and some are pineapples. You really can’t label people. Unless you have one of those label makers. Then I guess you could.

No, I think I have to go to bed now.

I went to the housinge organization today and dropped off the signed contract. One appartment coming up. I could have just mailed it to them, but seeing as thouh their office is pretty close to here and since I also had to show up and give them proof of the correct spelling of my middle name, I figured I’d just do that all at once in an amazing feat of getting-things-done. So now I just have to drop by the bank tomorrow and pay the bills and then it’s all done.

Except of course it won’t be all done, there’s still loads of stuff to take care of and think about. But I’m taking it a little bit at a time. In the hope that I won’t get too scared too much too soon. As I done said in my lj “I feel like a little kid. Not in a candy store, no, but in a store of giant bureaucratic expectations and responsibilities”. It’s an awful big world, an I’m awfully small. Relatively speaking.

Do you remember the collage I made of Magnethe? I figured it was about time that Mads got some recognition. He is after all a prize winning goat now. So I made him a tribute. Not a collage this time, but a slideshow on youtube. http://youtube.com/watch?v=LarD_xw3nkE. A lot of lovely Mads pictures through the years. I only wish I had been there to see him when he was just a little kid. But at least there is one picture of him back then. Wasn’t he just the cutest?

There’s a lot of stuff going on these days with the appartment and all. Nothing takes my mind off it quite like sitting in the sunshine with the goats. That is where I am at my happiest.
