i believe a day is productive if you do something you've never done before. today i have done two things i've never done before: 1) i got a Mantoux tuberculosis test. 2) i saw a huge geyser of pigshit.

the first was at work. the second was at my house. just part of farm livin', guys and gals. no kidding. it was a geyser about 25 feet high. neat, huh? my dad was making it with his tractor and some kind of pump, i guess. (special to tim: the manure lagoon needs aeration. also he was pumping it into a tank so he can spread it on our fields. tee. can't leave the windows open today!)

it's super gorgeous outside today. mmm. sunny.
