Mucking out the pens

Now the ducks are gone, I'm "mucking out" the pens I had for them. One was already there when I bought this place, the other Steve (a boarder I had) and I put up out of stuff found in the bush (including a working door).

I drained the kiddies wading pool and bath tubs I had installed. It was amazing how much muck they had in each. I also removed half the containers of water I had lying about. It's funny, but there seem to be less mosquitoes about today. Some of the "dirt" (mostly a mixture of dirt and duck manure from one pen is going to fill up the hole left by the bath tub in the other. That bath tub got removed to up the back. I'm going to dismantle the walkway and laying boxes I'd constructed in a minute. It's sweaty work, but I feel good doing it.

It's funny, out of all the ducks I think about, there's only Stinky, Nicole (Ballerina duck) and old Howard that I really miss. All dead, all gone.

Huh?

I just found out that my Yahoo account - the one I use for being on yahoo groups - has been de-activated.

WTF?

Mugged in America?

I was just on the phone to Mum, and mentioned that all the ducks were finally all gone. She seemed happy to hear this until I pointed out that it meant that I could travel overseas next year to America. This was all "But you'll be attacked over there" and "If you get murdered overseas we'd never know".

Well, I have been stalked and attacked here in Australia, so what's the difference?

Queer as Folk

Holy shit - final episode - it has to be, because of Michael's voice-over.

Actually, a cool way of ending. Some moved on, others didn't, but life goes on.
