This is my day off...
what a beautiful
California day...
I was happy.
Ilean and Dutchie were happy
I was happy.
Ilean and Dutchie were happy

SamDammit was happy
(we were playing after all)

even those of the caprine variety
were happy
UNTIL
I show up with the
weapons of mass torture:
Then I round them up.
Corral them all.
You know who...
...the desperate...
...the untamed...
...the pygmy goat...
Now no one is happy...
(especially me)
and suddenly I have no friends...
Except Big.
He's just confused.
But when I tackle him and torture him,
then he's not happy either.
Everything is going well, until...
... there is one, just one, who it turns out is capable of ruining my day...
Meet
"City Lights Roxy"
isn't she sweet?
Here she is again. Do you see that discoloration on the dirt?
That's mud from the flood.
What flood?
The flood than ran through this pen:
The flood that occurred when this pipe was broken.
There's a lot of water pressure in a 1/2" pipe.
And when I went to give Roxy her CDT vaccine
and
she jumped straight up
and
knocked me into the fence
and
I fell back
and
hit that pipe
and landed flat on my butt:
all that water shot right down the back of my pants.
Oy. I can't make this sh*t up.
Oy. Yes, you can. I don't believe any goat would be so crass as to jump straight up and knock anyone down. I think you're making that up. :)
ReplyDeleteMarigold, I was there and I have the pants to prove it! Of course, Roxy is certainly not nearly as genteel and dignified as you...
