Day 131: February 27

My dad is putting in my new whiteboard (!!) and I asked if glass was magnetic (it's a glass whiteboard). Good job Lauren.

So it seems the Internet is going through a goat phase. First there was the 'Goats that sound like humans' video my sister sent me because no-one actually knows. Then there was the 'I knew you were a goat when you walked in' remix by Taylor Swift and the goat. From there, there has been Bon Jovi and the goat collaborations, a party in the USA (Goat edition) and Dynamite featuring goats.

You goat-ta believe it.
With a whole world of goat related humor, you go for goat-ta? (reference to Harry Potter if you uncultured souls didn't know).
