:p So upon checking my favorite bird place (here) I noticed a few people wrote on my profile to wish me a happy birthday. THANK YOU!

I was so happy to see those messages. In some way it made me feel a little less weird... You see, the only thing I really wanted to do for my birthday was go out of town to a specialty bird store! :eek: I had planned for possibly two but it was near closing time and the human kids were hungry sooooo we just went to the one.

I took advantage of it being my birthday and splurged on a couple new toys, another nifty looking perch, some food and treats.

I did see a few cute birdies that I would love to have taken home but my logical strong husband helped me though my bout of weakness. :rolleyes:

Many happy, happy returns on your special day, Brenda! :clap:

I'm glad you were able to do something you enjoyed :)

You know, it's funny how non-bird people don't really understand how getting things for the birds is basically giving things to yourself :giggle: Mallorn and I celebrate our birthdays around the same time (first week of December) so when I told everyone I was getting Mallorn a new cage for my birthday everyone said "Well, ok, so what are you getting yourself?" :laughing:

Silly non-bird people. They never learn, do they? ;) :p

You are so right.
I did happen to get an amazing new sewing machine from my husband a few days early, I had put off getting a new one for years. However what I just HAD to have was more bird stuff, and visit the bird shop.
While looking through the toys my husband said: "don't you think they have enough? You're not going to have room in the cage if you get..." He doesn't seem to understand that I like to have extra, you know, to switch things out now and then. :p I also like to see some things in person, this paid off for me because I wanted to get a cool looking toy that I had also seen online but after inspecting it in person I decided against it, as it was clearly much to large.

Sounds like you had a very nice B-Day, and even though you didn't get another bird, a sewing machine and some
new bird toys is a pretty nice haul....:)

I did have a good one this year.
I really would have loved to take in another bird. I have a fondness for green cheeks, but my current residence is a tad small and rental contract only is for 2 "quiet little parakeets" and an old puddy tat. I have flirted with the idea of: "what if it's just a little parrotlet or love bird; no one will notice... right?"

Some day though, after we buy a place rather than rent. I'll be filling the need for another little friend or few. :p
I also need a horse, goats, ducks, and a dog.
