snow envy

what a bummer! we got *no* snow down here in chautauqua county. none. not even a frost. all the marigolds are still gold.

i was all excited to hear it was going to snow, especially because i'm headed to north carolina on monday, so i could escape from it. i'm looking forward to the weather being in the high 70's. yipee!

i have enjoyed looking at everyone else's pics showing the pretty snow. enjoy your snow day, peeps!

40 happy goats

it was such a beautiful day!

i live in the country in chautauqua county. i went for a long walk and hung out at chautauqua lake, reading The Shipping News. a very good book.

yesterday, we went to visit Carl, who is a farmer and expert construction builder. he has 40 goats, who he milks every day, and gets 5 gallons of milk a day. that seems like a lot of goats for that much milk to me. but i have never seen happier goats than his. they came right up to us when we walked in, and it was obvious that they really love Carl. each one has a name and he talks to them all. it was beautiful to see how happy they were. i really love goats.

first date

oh goodness. i just accidentally found myself on a date with some guy that i would never go on a date with. i really had no idea that's what we were doing. his name? started with a "j", had 5 letters.
he enjoyed talking about how he liked my butt; i enjoyed meditating and discussing yoga.
1:10, 1:12; i missed fairy time. got to get out of here. why is he hitting on me?
at least i had the thought the other day that i'd like to see what dating is like. glad i got that over with quickly.
