Here it is, the video I promised yesterday. <a HREF=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MI0-z5n5SMI\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MI0-z5n5SMI<\/a>. It is possibly the oddest and funniest thing I have ever seen. Sille licking Magnethe. It just cracks me up. I don&#8217;t know if she&#8217;s trying to groom Magnethe or if Magnethe&#8217;s fur just had a nice taste or what&#8217;s going on. But it makes me go lol. I oughta upload the original version to my own site, so you can see it better. But I hope you will still lol a little.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe Sille just misunderstood that whole thing about licking frogs. Silly Sille, you&#8217;re supposed to lick a TOAD not a GOAT!<\/p>\n<p>And now it is weekend. Nice. Three day weekend even, since TMU is closed on Monday. Good stuff. And I have made it through the two first weeks, the intro weeks. I have to say, I am feeling really good about it. It&#8217;s not like it&#8217;s going to be easy peasy, but I&#8217;m pretty sure I can do it and I&#8217;m pretty sure it&#8217;ll have a good outcome with a nice flexjob and things will work. Yay for positive thinking.<\/p>\n<p>But hey, don&#8217;t forget about the lambs.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-3864\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070209_lambs4_th.jpg\" ALT=\"lambs\" TITLE=\"lambs\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Aw, little Mini. She&#8217;s tiny. And she always seems to be scrunching up like a harmonica so she looks even smaller!<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-3862\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070209_lambs1_th.jpg\" ALT=\"lambs\" TITLE=\"lambs\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-3863\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070209_lambs2_th.jpg\" ALT=\"lambs\" TITLE=\"lambs\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-3861\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070209_lambs3_th.jpg\" ALT=\"lambs\" TITLE=\"lambs\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Yes, yes. Four pictures. I consider that restraining myself. But just for the sake of variety, here is one of the geesers:<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-3860\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070209_goose_th.jpg\" ALT=\"goose\" TITLE=\"goose\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>They love to waddle around on the grass field in front of the playground. It&#8217;s all muddy and perfect for them.<\/p>\n<p>I saw a picture of the new piggies that we will be getting in March. Remember I said that Kurt found them through an article in the paper? Pernille had a copy of the article and she showed it to me. There was a nice picture of a bunch of piglets suckling from their momma. And two of those will be ours. That&#8217;ll be great. They look like real cuties. Tiny and spotted. Although they&#8217;ll be a bit bigger when they come to the playground. But still, I&#8217;m sure they&#8217;ll be fun.<\/p>\n<p>The weather forecast says that we will be getting a lot of snow. On Sunday I think they said. Fingers crossed. It&#8217;s so very cold right now, so there ought to be lots of snow. Lots and lots.<\/p>\n<p>I have said it a couple of times in replies to comments, but just to repeat myself, just to repeat myself the reason that the bus situation is complicated and the reason why the TMU buildings are rurally bricklayed (those are words, I know they are) is that TMU is actually out in the middle of nowhere. Out in the open countryside. Huge open fields everywhere. The city busses in ?rhus don&#8217;t go all the way out there. So I have to take a city bus for a while and then I have to change to.. a &#8220;rutebil&#8221;. I&#8217;m not sure what that is exactly called in English. The busses that go between cities, I guess. Just imagine greyhound busses on a smaller scale. To further complicate the bus travel the people in charge of the bus routes decided to remove one of the bus stops at TMU. When I go there in the morning I can get off the bus right at the doorstep of TMU. So that&#8217;s fine. But when I have to go home, in the opposite direction of course, there is no bus stop. Apparently it was too dangerous because there is no street crossing there so people must have just been running across the giant highway road and I&#8217;m sure they all got killed like flies on a windshield or something. So what that means, just to repeat myself that means that I have to take the bus in the wrong direction. For one stop. Then I get off. And at that stop there is a street crossing so I can cross the street and take the bus in the right direction. That is all very boring and I always suck at explaining things so you probably don&#8217;t even understand it plus this sentence is getting really out of hand so just to repeat myself, the busses are complicated.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway. I think that&#8217;s pretty much it. You guyses who read this on the lj syndication really ought to visit the blog sometimes and read the comments, there are some funny people round here. They make that bus story seem like a party political broadcast on behalf of the wood party. <\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow I will be feeding the animals. I get to feed the lambs for the first time. And of course there&#8217;s Nina. I always look forward to seeing her. Good times. You know, life isn&#8217;t always that bad. Once I get through the morning then the day isn&#8217;t too horrible.<\/p>\n<p>Look at me being all positive and optimistic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay, okay, okay.
