Feedin' da bullz.

So this is the story all about how I got to feed the bulls instead of the cows, I'd like to take a moment just sit right there, I'll tell you all about how a bull licked me hair. (That actually happened.)

So, the other time ago, (Yes, I'm saying that. Eat it and die, Grammar Nazis! Ahahahaha) I got to feed the bulls.

This is how they usually greet me as I walk by.

The posture and pretend they aren't watching me and snort deeply.

But then, they notice I was going to the feed barrel.

Then they become a whole other being. 

Imagine this: An almost 2 ton cow dancing around slamming on slates. It's quite intimidating. 

And yes, the one bull also flails his tongue around.

After this wild ordeal and you go put the barrel back, as you walk past the the transformation has happened again.

And they are back to being big fuzzy mean bulls. Although, now that they are used to me and know I don't fear them, they come up and let me scratch them. They even pump they're heads up and down a little to assist in the scratching.
Even though I don't trust them, I do like them. 
Even when the lick me. 

That occurs on an almost daily basis. It happens to all the other workers too, apparently.

Anyways, I'm heading out of this blog now.

Scratch you later bro!

Ewewewewew.....ew.

Some cows just wanna watch the world burn.

Cleaning tons of poop with tiny little wipes is really hard. 

Also there's this cow that has two big festers. one on her lower leg that has already burst and leaks all over, and one on her upper leg the size of a beach-ball and growing. I just hope that doesn't burst while she's in the parlour. 

If it does and I get some on me, don't put me out after I set myself on fire. Let me go out with a little dignity.

That's all for now!

Sorry that I missed several weekends.... I blame society. 

Peace out!

It's the weekend!

Hello peoplez! 

So this week I've been working hard and getting dirty.

I had to clean out a combine head. And a Flex head.
So basically I have to twist my body among metal spokes to pull out stalks of Soy and corn. I took a chunk of skin off my arm doing it. 

Did you know it was possible to impale yourself with a stalk of soy?

Because I didn't. Til now. 
Needless to say, after I yanked out the tree branch and tidied up the blood, I put on gloves.

So to clean it out I have this air blower dealio thingy to blow the chaff and junk out. But before I used it I'd clean out the big stuff.

It didn't help much. 

No matter how much you pull out with your hands, the air blower finds more to cover you with. 
Every time I horked a loogie it was mud. It was awful. 
Next time Keith asks me to clean out a header I will say yes. BUT IT WILL HAVE A TINY BIT OF HESITATION.

That's right.

I'm a rebel.

Same thing when I have to wash the slates, except it's not chaff from soy; it's poop. And it gets on my eyelids. And everywhere else.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM yum. 

The good thing is though the after I blow out all the chaff and stuff I get to drive the skidsteer. :D :D

                                                    Because it's seriously so much fun to drive.

Anyways, that is all for now. Apparently I have stuff to do today. Also, We have snow!!! I am SO PLEASED. I love snow so much.

Cheerio people!

Hiyah guys!

So, I've started this new blog.
BECAUSE.
Talking about work all the time is apparently boring. So I've decided to write about it.

Because it's cool and I want to share it! And the great thing about it being a blog is that people can choose to read it or not.
Besides, it's more fun to type.

By the way, I'm foul and feisty at times, so I say words like poop. And piss.
So you don't have to stay if you don't like naughty words like those.
I mean, I'm a farmer. Born and raised. The barnyard is where I spend most of my days. Chilling, shoveling stuff like poo, running in the dirt when I finished my school...
A poor excuse, but one nonetheless.

Without further ado, I welcome you to my lessthenhumble blog.

You can visit my other blog if you like pictures and spam.
