thezI just nearly gave myself a heart attack lifting weights. Damn my weak girly arms! DAMN THEM.
So, yesterday was Mother's Day. As it turns out, my mother purchased her own gift: a baby green conure. She is unsure of its gender, but she's calling it a "she" and has named it Angel. The little tyke is three months old and is the CUTEST THING IN EXISTENCE. It is a cuteness that cannot be described, but only experienced.
I love birds. They remind me of lizards, you see.
What else have I been up to? Well, aside from schooling bitches at work, I've been studying the strange and cryptic art of IRC and file servers. I haven't used IRC since I was, what... twelve? That would be a decade ago. I don't remember it being quite so complicated, but then, the software was ten years younger as well, so perhaps it actually wasn't that complicated. I primarily used it to chat with various and sundry groups of Gargoyles and Star Trek fans, like the small uber-nerd that I was. Now I'm using it to download anime... like the rather tall uber-nerd that I am. The more things change, the more I'm still a dork.
To every rhyme there is a reason, and a season for every geek under heaven. It's a song. Shut up. It is.
I need a vacation. Good thing I get one starting Saturday.

I am very sorry about your bird. I've been trying to get rid of mine for years, and he still makes me deaf. I have the sun conure (see the first one on that site). He has a nice personality but was never trained, and will draw blood when he bites you (he could snap your finger too if he were mad enough).
Buy earplugs. Do it now, and prepare to inherit that conure, because it will live FOREVER. THEY DO NOT DIE.
You love birds? You've clearly never had eleven of them in your lifetime...
