She ticked me off!!

So, mom decided to do her 20-minute meditation this morning and I decided I wanted to sit next to her while she did and she decided I wasn't going to so I decided to chirp and yell her name and she closed her eyes and turned up the volume on her headset and I decided to pace back and forth on my carrier perch like a crazy parrot and she cranked up the volume even more so this is what I did to my perch...

That's just the way I roll...

We lived on the top floor of an ultra cool sky flat in Minnesota. That explains the painted concrete floor I'm walking on. Actually, I was doing more than walking but pacing back and forth in front of the closed bathroom door.

You see, Big Daddy Dave got just a little too close to my perch because he wasn't paying attention so I decided he had invaded my personal space and I tried to jump on him, which scared the living you know what out of him and he ran while yelling mom's name.

It wasn't so much that he closed the bathroom door but locked it as well! Mom had to explain that I hadn't learned how to unlock doors yet! When I do, he's in big trouble.

Out of respect for my friend, Annie, who recently lost the love of her life, Dennis, and because of the shooting rampage in Tucson, I won't be posting this week.

God bless all of you.

Food-Food-Food!

Mom is so anal about my diet! You see, a few years ago my Vet told mom I was overweight. Everyone else in our family is getting hefty so why not me?

Anyhoot, she goes all strict on me and starts forcing me to eat veggies along with fruit and pellets and since I'm a female, she has to watch my calcium intake so that means I also eat boiled egg shells. All in all, it's not so bad.

When mom goes grocery shopping the cashiers always remark on what a healthy eater she is because of all the produce in her basket. She just smiles like she's the one eating all this organic stuff. I'm sure, behind her back, they are wondering how a woman can be so chunky eating so healthy? It's a mystery, isn't it?
