Soon her beard will be longer than mine. I&#8217;ll have to teach her how to shave and have a little talk with her about the birds and the bees.

And then suddenly the theme to Jaws started playing (in my head, possibly) as the buck approached from behind.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4755\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080108_buckmads2_th.jpg\" ALT=\"buckmads\" TITLE=\"buck mads\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This bench isn&#8217;t big enough for the both of us! I still find it a bit cute how Mads baahs nervously when the buck gets too close. It&#8217;s not a scared baah. Just sort of.. &#8220;baah, what are you doing? I&#8217;m not a girl goat, get away from my butt&#8221;. I think Mads is a little homophobic.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4752\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080108_magnethe1_th.jpg\" ALT=\"magnethe\" TITLE=\"magnethe\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a typical Magnethe situation. Often when Mads is standing on the bench to my right, then Magnethe is on my left. But sometimes she&#8217;s gone to the other side, and is behind Mads there. Then if I give Mads a treat she&#8217;ll almost try to wedge her way in there, so she can have a bite too. Of course if Mads senses that she&#8217;s there then he&#8217;ll swiftly turn his head and butt in her direction. It&#8217;s always dangerous when you&#8217;re fighting for your treats.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4757\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080108_magnethe2_th.jpg\" ALT=\"magnethe\" TITLE=\"magnethe\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And that last picture is of course a bunch of hay that has mysteriously  grown horns. &#8230; Or maybe Magnethe is just trying to see how far in her head will go.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, everything is much better with goats.<\/p>\n<p>I talked to Jannie today, and she agreed to feed the animals on Saturday. So that means I can go to the &#8220;wedding&#8221;. I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;ll be nice, and at least quick. I don&#8217;t think I would have liked to spend hours in a crowded church. But 20 minutes in the mayor&#8217;s office, that should be manageable. We&#8217;ll see how it goes. I wonder if I can get the goats on the guest list? If they promise to behave.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll see. That&#8217;s all for now. I&#8217;m tired and my bed is calling. &#8220;Plume&#8221; it calls. &#8220;I have a special dream for you tonight. Pamela Anderson, season 4 of Lost and all the gummi bears you can eat&#8221;.
