An Incident In A Day In The Life Of Anna

Posted by on August 14, 2008

Umm, tomorrow is not a day for vegans on the farm. Mike Erickson is coming in his big truck and this years lamb crop is leaving in it in a very altered state.

One lamb is staying. And what is rather humorous, (sorry can’t help it, I break promises like that all the time, besides its nearly tomorrow) is that the one that gets to remain for the rest of her natural life (approximately 7 or so years)or until she can’t keep lambing, is this year’s bummer.

Not such a bummer after all to be a bummer. Especially Anna’s bummer. I’ll look for some pics for tomorrow of Tilly as a bottle lamb (that is what a bummer is).

But here are pics of another of Anna’s bummers, albeit a bummer of a different nature.

Mind you she came to me herself with camera card in hand, “Here blog this, ” she says. “What happens when you forget what you’ve done.”


“Anna” Fluffy Joe calls. “Better come here, I think you have a problem.”


“Oh, cracken snapple! I forgot to shut off the water,” Anna cries.

“Well now you better turn it off. I am sure the hydrangea has enough water,” Fluffy adds rather sarcastically.

He is old and grumpy, sarcasm comes easy, especially when it isn’t his mistake. Not so sarcastic and snide when he was on trial for murder, but that’s another story for a different day.

“This may be what happens when you don’t water the hydrangea when your mom asks you too.”

“Alright already, Fluffy, I get it! You want your hair balls combed out now, Matt?”

“Uh no, I didn’t say that. I’ll go back and lay down and mind my own business and next time I’ll just let the river run through it.”

“Oh, now that is just a dumb use of a movie title,” as she heads towards the Cook’s Porch door. “You don’t even watch movies, you’re getting the comb and scissors tomorrow for sure.” Anna says as she shuts the door behind her.

No rocks were harmed in the filming of this docudrama. But tomorrow there will be some hair spilled. And because this incident was produced by well water no water was really wasted. In a few days it will be right back where it started. So activists can just sit back and enjoy the humor and unwrap their panties.
