I could just scream

I did find a home for my Quicksilver and Goldmoon. I am so sad to give them up. The guy from my work is going to take them. I just hope when we meet him tomorrow that he doesn't turn out to be a complete scumbag. Most of the people who work here have to at least look normal and send out some small sense of normalcy so I'm sure he'll be okay (it is a professional environment in a HUGE company after all). I'm going to meet him outside of my building tomorrow at 5:00. And John suggested that I give him our new breeder cage with the birds. It's kind of pointless for us now that TK and Peachy Keen don't have to be seperated anymore. So they'll go into Silver and Gold's cage (which I've never been fond of, but whatever) and Silver and Gold will get a nice shiny (practically new) cage to go to their new home in. The thing is huge. I'm sure they'll love it. Maybe Quicksilver can actually get away from Goldmoon occasionally, poor hen-pecked little ...

Quicksilver and Goldmoon

I suck. I really do. I just feel like the worst pet owner. But I have tried and tried with these two lovebirds and they are just not friendly or sociable. All six of them being in one room is just TOO much noise and we are being woken up at 2 a.m. every night by birds screaming. It's really beginning to take its toll on John and me. So. . .someone's got to go and it's got to be them. They gave us that one great clutch since they've been with us and we found homes for three of the babies and kept Justarius, our little one foot wonder. But we just can't keep them. Not in the condo we're in now. Maybe someday when we have a soundproof bird room I could have kept them, but not now. I really have tried to work with them. Quicksilver seems like he wants to come out and play, but Goldmoon yells at him. And Gold bites, hard. I just think they'll be better off by themselves somewhere in someone else's house who doesn't care that they never come out to play or...

RENT

it's time now to sing out though the story never ends lets celebrate remember a year in the life of friends remember the love. . . . one song glory one song before I go glory one song to leave behind! No day but today. This movie was. . . an experience. John bought out tickets online a few days before opening night. Good thing too. We got there about an hour early and were the first into the theater. John is the only guy I've ever felt comfortable enough to sit in the middle of the theater with. I used to have to be on the end of the row or I'd flip out, but for the past year I sit right in the middle of the row, middle of the theater. I love it! After about fifteen minutes the teenage girls and homosexual teenage guys started piling in (not that there's anything wrong with that, as Jenn would say). I swear, an entire theater group from a high school must have gotten tickets together. They filled up 3/4 of the theater and everyone knew everyone. Someone would walk i...

Mall Review

Yesterday was really a lot of fun. Sarah and Paul got a sitter for Sadie and they showed up at my place around 12:30. We drove all over the place for work clothes for Paul. First we went to BJs. I got a cute little outfit for Dawn's son . It's all sporty. I think they'll like it. They like the Red Sox and the Patriots and this is a little football outfit so.... It's really cute. Only 11 dollars too. On the way there I gave Sarah a bridesmaid guide that I got her as a gift. Kind of cheesy, but I love stuff like that - keeps you organized - so I figured it can't hurt. She seemed to like it, and we laughed at some of the more zany advice. Paul found some pants at BJs and then we headed over to Kohl's. I have never seen a guy shop so long for clothes! lol. But I do think that the term "business casual" can confused some people. That's how I'm supposed to dress for work and it never fails that at least once a week I come into work and feel way too ...

Best Joke Ever

Banky Edwards : Alright, now see this? This is a four-way road, OK? And dead in the center is a crisp, new, hundred dollar bill. Now, at the end of each of these streets are four people, OK? Are you following? Holden McNeil : Yeah. Banky Edwards : Good. Over here, we have a male-affectionate, easy to get along with, non-political agenda lesbian. Down here, we have a man-hating, angry as fuck, agenda of rage, bitter dyke. Over here, we got Santa Claus, and up here the Easter Bunny. Which one is going to get to the hundred dollar bill first? Holden McNeil : The man-hating dyke. Banky Edwards : Good. Why? Holden McNeil : I don't know. Banky Edwards : Because the other three are figments of your fucking imagination! ~Chasing Amy And while we're on the "best. . . .ever" subject, check out this post by L&N line. I love it!

The idea is being happy inspite of pain....

My friend Jessica wrote that on the back of a smiley face sticker that had a bullet hole in its head. I haven't heard from her in ages. She lives in Washington state or Oregon or something. Last I heard (granted, from my ex, Jesse, who probably didn't want me talking to her because she's HIS friend and not mine. . .whatever) is that she's an apostate now and hates Jehovah's Witnesses so I guess it's just as well I don't talk to her. I don't know how I did it but my jaw is absolutely killing me on the left side of my face. Maybe I've been grinding my teeth every night for two weeks. I really have no idea. But it was so bad Tuesday night before we left for Brian's house that I actually took the tylenol/codeine I was given for my surgery. It was giving me a headache all across the top of my head and up the side of my face as well. It's still hurting and it started hurting a couple days before my surgery. I just don't get it. It better not be...

It's a Boy!

One of my best friends, Dawn, had a baby boy in October. Here is a picture of him. I can't wait to meet him when I am reinstated next year. At times I think "a year. . .that's not so bad." And then events like this happen and I think "Hmm, that justice of the peace wedding next month is looking pretty good." But I never want to regret a serious decision in my life and I know if I rushed this wedding I would really regret it. Anyway, here is the picture. Isn't he adorable?? (And Dawn's not half bad either. ;) )
