Mew and the Glasshanded Goats

January 24th, 2007

A couple of youtubers today.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=vFGaJr2SYKM. Magnethe and Mads in-fight. They were going at each other a lot yesterday, I’m not sure why. Normally Magnethe just backs off because she knows Mads is stronger. But here she stands her ground. It’s also funny to see that she does that goat “jumping up” attack thing a lot. While Mads doesn’t. He does a half one and that’s it. You could speculate that it’s because he knows that he’s the strongest so he doesn’t have to try too hard to intimidate Magnethe. However, I lean towards the possibility that he’s just too big and heavy to be jumping around like that. Hehe.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=9CtL2f6D7XM. Letting Mads chew off of a stick of carrot. If you turn up the sound you should be able to hear his disgruntled groans when Magnethe gets too close. The really funny thing is watching Magnethe though. She knows she can’t come too close because Mads will chase her away. But she wants the carrot so bad! So she does that streeeetching her head thing, moving around as if she can somehow get a bite of carrot even though she’s too far away. Adorable. And I do manage to slip her the last bit of carrot, even though Mads tries his darndest to avoid it.

I love those silly goats.

Meanwhile, you could check out comments that I left for Jools. With several good youtube links for bootiful music.

Oops, I think you have to be Joolses friend to see the entry. So you probably can’t see the comments. Oh well. If you’re an LJ user then you should just add her cause she’s funnier than a comedian on crack after a weekend at comedy school. And if you’re not an LJ user, then don’t cry over spilled milk. Just go look for Mew videos on youtube.

L8ter g8ters.

Go Go Goats

January 23rd, 2007

Why do I do stupid things? Like taking a nap. Twice. When I KNOW it will make it harder to sleep at night. Especially now when I’m trying to readjust my sleeping rythm and get to bed earlier. It just makes for horrible sleepless nights and tired mornings. And I have no one to blame but myself.

Thankfully I have the playground to keep me happy.

Mads sniffing at Magnethe.

Magnethe sniffing at my shoe. I had some snow on it and she proceeded to nibble at it.

Yeah, she is lovely. When I was writing that “history of the playground” entry, I looked through some of my old videos of her. From when she was just a kid. How cute she was. Those videos were made with my old camera. Poor quality and no audio. It kinda reminded me of when the hero in some TV show or movie sits down and looks at his childhood movies. You know, from a projector, all grainy and black’n’white and stuff. Okay, my old videos aren’t that bad. But they still have a little of that “long time ago, low tech” feel. You can see for yourself here for example.

If you would rather have a hi-tech new youtubed video then here is the promised one of Mads eating snow: http://youtube.com/watch?v=sK8TcmIHj_s. I swear I did not hide any nuts or raisins in there. Pure as the fallen snow.

End entry.
