Mornin.
Just got up a few minutes ago, but went to 'bed' 3 hours ago... funny, they give us this busted fold out cot to sleep on here, I'm about 30% too big for it. Sooo... being the 'smart' avionics guy that I am, I brought my air matress in... nice.
Couple more hours, then I go home and sleep it off.

Yes it is.
Imagine that.
You need to get your mind out of the gutter. Three things when dealing with farm animals. 1: Never let them in the house to sleep with you unless you think its going to rain or if they are afraid of the dark. 2: Don’t let them eat dinner with you if you are having steak, lamb chops or bacon (chicken is ok). 3: Don’t dress them in lingerie or clothing of any kind unless you think they are cold. If you follow these guidelines your neighbors wont shun you. I learned the hard way.
Nice mess, enjoy the nutz.
It's hard to sing when your head is swollen from the A.K.
Morning.

G'day all you sleepy heads.
For the record, the sheep were in here LONG before I showed up...
Killed 13 trillion skeeters last night, or so it seemed. Gotta love mosquito fogging duty!!!
Pre-tenderized BBQ sammys on the counter. Don't mind the paint marks...
