(That&#8217;s a good way to start an entry, don&#8217;t you think?). <\/p>\n<p>I mentioned that people were coming over to replace my heat and water counter, right? So I was sitting around for hours, waiting. Nervously. Because you know, strangers etc. People. Scary. Eventually a plumber rang my doorbell. And I let him in. And he recognised me! Yes, he knew me from our old school. Gammelg?rden. Wow. That&#8217;s like.. last century. Millennium, even. He asked me if I remembered him, but I didn&#8217;t. He was a couple of years younger than me. And was apparently thrown out of 7th grade. Although he later corrected that to &#8220;transfered out&#8221;. Hehe. But what a trip. That was the <i>last<\/i> thing I was expecting. We talked for a bit. He saw my computer, just 5 minutes before he came I had loaded up a game to pass the time while I waited. So we talked a bit about computer games. Turns out he is hooked on World Of Warcraft. And he wanted to recruit me. I have never played any MMORPGs (that&#8217;s Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game to you sad people that ..aren&#8217;t nerds). I have been meaning to give Ultima Online a shot though. Since I&#8217;m a huge Ultima fan. But WoW is hugely popular. And this guy, Lars, asked if I wanted a free trial. So I said yes to that. He&#8217;s going to come round tomorrow with it. I am invited to his &#8220;clan&#8221; apparently. So how about that? Maybe I have made a new friend? Or if nothing else then a free trial for <a HREF=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/World_of_Warcraft\">World of Warcraft<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, life can still throw a suprise at you  every once in a while.<\/p>\n<p>When he was done fixing the water counter I went to town and picked out a desk to replace the one that got broken during transport. The new desk will be delivered tomorrow. I had to pay a little extra, but then the desk is much nicer than the one I had originally picked. So I shan&#8217;t complain. I&#8217;m just looking forward to getting it. Also tomorrow an electrician will come to change the heat\/electricity counters. I thought it would all be done in one go, but I guess you need a plumber for the water thing and an electrician.. for the rest. I wonder if the electrician will want to be my friend as well? We&#8217;ll see. But that&#8217;s the plan for tomorrow. Electrican and desk delivery.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday I was back at TMU. Talked to Anne, the physio. Just briefly. About my back mainly. I&#8217;m trying to get retirement for psychological reasons , but they just have to cover everything in the &#8220;application&#8221;. After that I talked to Peter, the boss. He&#8217;s almost done with the new text for their website. So I can get started on that soon. Hopefully I can come up with something useable. He is insisting on giving me a &#8220;reward&#8221;, even though I tried to talk my way out of it. They&#8217;re too nice out there. I feel like I owe THEM, not the other way around. But we&#8217;ll see what happens with that.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the goats are the best thing in my life, did you know?<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4530\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070827_madsme_th.jpg\" ALT=\"mads\" TITLE=\"mads\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My buddy Mads.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4532\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070827_vanilje_th.jpg\" ALT=\"vanilje\" TITLE=\"vanilje\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And Vanilje sniffing around. That is surely one of the greatest things about goats, their curiosity. They&#8217;re always sniffing around. If you ever walk up to a goat, chances are it will start sniffing around you too. Maybe it will try to chew on your clothes, just to see if you&#8217;re edible.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4531\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070827_magnethe_th.jpg\" ALT=\"magnethe\" TITLE=\"magnethe\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Magnethe baahing. She must have spotted something. Could it be&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4533\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2007\/070827_pergoats_th.jpg\" ALT=\"pergoats\" TITLE=\"pergoats\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Yes, it&#8217;s Per. He was rummaging around inside. And Vanilje heard him. And when she hears people inside then she always gets excited and starts baahing and running up to the hatch and trying to get in. So Per took pity on her and came out with some food. All the goats were very happy with that.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s all. I&#8217;m afraid the kitten brew will have to wait for tomorrow. I&#8217;ll reheat it for you, don&#8217;t worry. It&#8217;ll be greeat.<\/p>\n<p>Oh yes, also a very happy birthday to The Debster. The Debsterminator is one of the nicest people I know, and I hope she realizes what a positive, positive thing she is in my life. And not just because of her goats! Happy birthday, and many more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A funny thing happened today. (That&#8217;s a good way to start an entry, don&#8217;t you think?).
