August

Well, here we are in August again. I'm sitting in my filthy work clothes, too lazy to go shower right now. It was actually not to bad out today, still humid, but cloudy, so no burning sun making life miserable.

The horses and chickies are all doing well, no one is sick for once.

Chocobo the little rooster is being a bastard to the hens, but he's still young, only a little over a year old. He will settle down and by next year should be way more mellow. I just hate seeing all the hens with their bare backs. I would make them wear jackets, but it's been too hot.

This is Lucy with her jacket. I miss her.

There are a few girls in my current flock that are snuggly, but none like Lucy and Ella were. Beauty is a neat little hen. I've wanted Sumatras for years, ever since I first saw them on feathersite.com. Reading about them I expected a flighty little bird who is half wild. Beauty broke that perception. She's so tiny but just full of attitude.

She likes to be spoken too and will cock her head and talk back. She's one of the only ones who will come to the edge of the roost and demand attention when I'm in the coop.

Went to see Cowboys and Aliens last Friday. I really liked it, although that may have had more to do with the ridiculous amounts of Kraken I snuck into the theater. Really though, booze make any movie better. And Kraken is a new fav. I mean really, who can resist such a piratey rum?

Well I digress, oh wait, can you really digress when you have no aim? Hm...
