I got the birds up this morning and didn't get any good morning noises, only grumpy hisses.

Yeah, I know that feeling.

Part of The nightly routine of putting Serra to bed is her having a ten minute hiss fit with the cage cover.

She never thinks it is time for bed.

It turns out there is a follow up spray for the bedbugs that I was completely unaware of. Possibly I'm an idiot. I found this out just after taking some weed oil, so I can't drive anywhere.

So, me and two cockatiels are going to be spending the next four hours in my car in the parking lot, while I am stoned. This is amazing. gently caress me.

Bring a book or mess around on your phone and it'll be a little boring, but fine. The boys might enjoy being able to check out the world around them through the windows, and you being there in the car with them will be comforting. You'll be okay!

I really am a mess of anxiety at the best of times. Much like a bird, I suppose. Sorry.



I'm reading. I walked down to dairy queen for some food. I have an assurance from the guy with the poison that this stuff basically only kills bugs, so the birds will likely be fine.

I doubt you would have any problems but if it was me, I'd just make sure the place was ventilated well for a few extra hours once you're back in but you've probably already thought about that.

I'd definitely be up for 4 hours in the car with my birds, then after an hour I'd probably be over them destroying my car.

I think they just enjoyed hanging out with you! When you get a chance you should double-check and see if they plan any more follow-up sprays, just in case. That way you don't have to panic.

Near the end of it they were very tired of it, especially since Ozzy wanted to be put to bed (he always wants to go to bed at five) but he was unimpressed with the idea of sleeping in the car. I tried very hard to get a picture of Sera on the steering wheel, but he didn't stay put long enough. He seemed quite overwhelmed about the experience. Our biggest issue was when crows flew overhead and that was terrifying. Also at one point they saw a dog.

But we're back and safe.

Crouton became a member of the alt right by mangling my copy of Diary of A Young Girl so she is definitely going to hell. Galbedir is an innocent baby but also besotted with Crouton so he would get a pass to go to heaven but would choose to follow Crouton to hell instead.

Trevor agrees, but only cos he has plans to take over Hell.

Cricket tho, is a Goode Birb, and would only go to Hell to stop in to visit friends and relatives now and again.

but long live Toupac, and that other tiny toucan he is now caring for whose name I forget

Watching the progression Toupac has made since he adopted him his amazing, especially the before/after beak photos.

Yeah, it's totally nuts. "Oh I just used sandpaper and coconut oil and now he's on a good diet". Hopefully Tupac's bumble (?) gets better but it sounds like maybe it won't.

Stained, dirty, smells like weed, possibly a relic from the sixties.



That is 1) a quality felting job; and 2) a remarkably accurate Australian ringneck. I know this because one bit me yesterday during a nail trim.

I wouldn't have a realistic felt bird around because Serra would inevitably start laying eggs for it.
