It's Wednesday, it's been disgustingly hot, and now it is time for a GRATUITOUS PIG SPAM. Because everyone needs that.

I also wanted to thank everyone who expressed concern over

starsandgraces's pigtragedy last week, and pass on that Milly and Mandy are under careful watch but doing fine. And Molly is fondly and lovingly remembered, and her sisters likely survived because of her. Hail Molly.

So the weekend before last I bathed my own pigs, which is always fabulous picture fodder, and now I throw it all at you because I can.

Nicky is usually very well behaved, but I think at this point she was starting to lose her patience and feeling downright embarrassed.

Safely in her drying-sack. And so for Nicky, the terror was over.

But for Olivia, it was just beginning!

I finally realized that one of Olivia's (many) problems is that she hates having her feet wet, especially the front ones. So she tries to stand on her back legs and slips and gets more wet and everything is terrible. Holding her front feet for her helped a little.

Awww, escape attempt.

Oh, the indignity.

Oh, the pigmanity!

But at last it was over.

She sulked on the rug for a while, though.

Nicky meanwhile had completely recovered and was all about the grass. Mmmm, grassmogu.

Post-bath grazing is important.

Olivia has not yet forgotten how she suffered.

And we all lived happily ever after. Well, for a while. Then the mosquitoes came for me.

The end!

Thank you for your time. I hope everyone has a decent day.
