A Tale of Two Goats
Right, start again.
I just deleted a goat/nazi joke. I don’t know if the world is ready for it.
Anyway. I done made a photo album of pictures from the Tina Dickow concert in December. No good shots, I’m afraid. As you might remember an usher came down and asked me to stop taking pictures. So I didn’t have my usual million of shots to pick from.
She’s been on the radio a lot lately, Tina. Good airplay. And my family is even starting to recognise her. Hehe. One night, while my dad was here, I had Winamp going. With Thom Yorke’s Eraser on. And my dad scoffed and asked what that was? He isn’t much into electronica I think. Well, after Thom comes Tina naturally. Yes, my Winamp is alphabetically sorted (White&Nerdy). And to that he said “Isn’t that Tina Dickow? That’s much better”. True story.
I miss Vanilje. I wish she’d be back soon. How long can it take to impregnate a goat? That sounds like the start of a bad joke… but she better come back soon, or she’ll be all grown up when I see her again! I can’t wait to see her get kids. The sweetest thing I ever did know was when Magnethe got hers. Remember how big she got? Big as a house. Odd to imagine little Vanilje like that next year.
Speaking of kids, I should like to give a shoutout (pretty fly for a white guy) to Desirée. She is great. She seems determined to give me a real, true Commodore 64. What a wonder. But more importantly, she has a beautiful daughter. Go look at her. Raven. Isn’t she lovely? I love the picture of her being held by her grandma. Too sweet.
I know a few people online who have kids. They always make me happy, when I think of them. Sometimes they make me want to have a kid. I had a dream recently where I had a baby boy. Little Plume Junior. It was just a dream, but holding him was still a joy. I wouldn’t put a baby in this world as long as I can’t even take care of myself, though. Plus I have heard rumours that you need a girl for it, and frankly I don’t think that’s very likely. Haha.
But other than that everything is fine.
PS. Speaking of C64, Commando theme live by Press Play On Tape.

Plume, thought of you today when I saw some plastic pink flamingos! They must be migrating early this year!
Well that’s something that your Dad recognizes Tina Dickow’s music now. Does he regularly listen to any special kind of music? Just curious.
When Vanilje returns, you will have to show us pictures of her in her maternity outfits. (ha, ha)
No kids for me, thank you. Goat kids are the only kind I want. I never had the maternal instinct for human kids. Now “baby animals” are a whole nother story. If someone left a baby donkey or llama on my doorstep in a basket (a big basket), I’d raise it in a minute.
Now Plume, never say never. Who knows, there might be a gal out there for you who would want little Plumes and Plume-ettes. It might not be this month or next, but it’s a brand new year and anything can happen. It’s good to have goals and dreams. Don’t sell yourself short.

Deb – My dad is a big fan of ABBA! Hehe. And generally Swedish music, especially old stuff. Older than ABBA. Like old Swedish folk stuff. Hootin tootin fun!
Hmm, I might go for raising a baby llama too. That’d be interesting. Or maybe I’ll stick with baby goats. They tootin fun too.
Don’t worry, I will only sell myself if the price is right.
