Dumb Pluckers

Two stressed out birds plucking their feathers + special food for them + special toys to put their food in to distract them from plucking = unhappy and penniless owners.

We brought Tonks into the house and Gunther has lost it. The bird is crazy. He plucked his entire left leg and up to his chest. Jealous little boy. Tonks is nervous from her move so she plucked feathers out of her chest.... Stop the ride please, I'd like to get off.

Tomorrow I'm going to Feathers with Kirsty and we're going to get Harrison's and a foraging wheel. I just want my Gunther to be okay. :(

Good news - Kirsty is going to watch Amelie for us when we go to Florida. And maybe the lovebirds too. That way we'd only have to board Tonks and Gunther. And that way I wouldn't have to worry about them dying in a fire while we're gone. (Since Pixel is going to John's parents' house.)

More good news - the family taking away my creamino... I mean, giving a home to our two lovebird babies, is really great. They came over to visit last weekend. Ray and Jean. They have two daughters who are 7 and 5. Nice kids. They were really interested in Gunther and they loved Pixel too. Our house is like a zoo and most days I really love it. I'm glad that the two babies have found a good home. They're going home on the 10th. I shall miss them....... But I won't miss the screaming.

ROTS Review - it's not all puppy dogs and ice cream

Well, Revenge of the Sith opened last night. I’m told it made 16.5 million with just its midnight show. I’m not surprised. This was the long-anticipated end to a huge saga. And I have to say that after having last night and some of today to reflect on it, I was a bit disappointed. The die-hard fans are furious right now, I’m sure. “What? But. . .it’s Star Wars. . .How can you not like it??” I will tell you how. First of all, I’m not saying I hated it . I enjoyed it enough and I definitely plan to see it again. There was so much to see on screen that you certainly need to view it more than once to take it all in properly. I did not hate every second of it. I left with a mostly satisfied feeling. But let’s cover what did bother me and then we’ll end on a high note with the things I really enjoyed. WARNING: HUGE SPOILERS AHEAD. 1. Anakin and Padme – the dialogue between them was definitely lacking. I cringed during the whole “I love you because you love me” part. But that ca...

Update from the road

I don't use blogger anymore. I love the interface here and I like it better than livejournal but there is just no sense of community for me here anymore. I still read a few people's blogs but that's it really and I never hear from anyone on here so... I switched to LJ. If you want to know any of the happenings of my life, you can catch up there . I'm driving cross country currently with my husband, Seth. We started at my home in Mass and are in cali now. We're going to be in Washington State by Sunday. That's where Seth's job is. For any of those of you who have my cell phone number, it's shut off right now. That's what happens when you get fired for no reason from your job, denied unemployment, and you can't pay your bills. But it'll be back on again soon. Even though i'm going to miss my family and the few good friends I had there, I am so glad to be out of that god-forsaken state. I can't wait to start fresh in Seattle. Eventually ...

Great Questions from my Favorite Movie Reviewer

In a note on my previous post kennelworthy said: " Okay, I'm sure I could find the answer to this by going through your site's archives, but I'm at work and therefore don't have that kind of time. Feel free to chide me for being lazy. But...without getting personal, I have a few questions. For starters, ( 1 )what kinds of things cause the JW's to excommunicate someone? ( 2 )If they would accept you back into their fold, would you want to go back...or was your df'ing something related to "core beliefs." For instance, the Episcopal denomination is currently fueding with itself over homosexuality in the pulpit. It's caused a split in the church proper over "core beliefs." So, is there some aspect of the JW's you disagreed with that led to your df'ing...or do you still hold the same belief system as them but they just won't let you back in officially? If the answer to the above is "yes", then ( 3 )why would you wan...
