M-I-C-K-E-Y
Introducing the newest addition to the family...Mickey!
Mickey is a lovebird (no, not a love CHILD, you perv...) but a lovebird. Lovebirds are small parrots and we are happy to have this little guy join us. He is 7 weeks old & has been hand fed by some really nice people in Logan Square in Chicago. This little guy is virtually a baby still so he eats and sleeps A LOT! The really interesting thing about lovebirds is that they like to burrow, so most of the time, Mickey is digging his face is my armpit with his butt in the air, or jumping towards my face (his wings are clipped) to try to get to my neck area for some snuggling. He's a sweetie.
We named him Mick(ey) because on the way home, he first started warming up to us when the Rolling Stones came on the radio. Yes folks, this one likes rock & roll.
He's still young and small, but quite strong & super smart. We gotta get more toys so he doesn't get bored!
We've got our hands full but are really enjoying the bonding process. He's sleeping in Steve's hands as we speak...

WOOHOO!!! I can't wait to meet Mickey!! He looks and sounds like the perfect pet for you and Steve - - a lovebird!
I'll bet Mickey got the whole "shoving his face in someone's armpit and sticking his butt up in the air" from that crazy reverend who married you.
His cufflinks were fabulous, however. :)
Ha! I'm glad you still like those cuff links...I just thought they were perfect. xoxo
