i'm at sabrina's house, i've spent most of the day here just hanging out. i had to wake up at 6 in the morning so my mom could drive me and it took me FOREVER to fall back asleep. it was probably because Sabrina was freaking me out!!! she would cuddle up close to me and then make this weird laughing sound, roll over and have this really creepy smile...all this while she was sound asleep. i finally got to the point were i just pushed her face away from me, rolled over and shuddered internally every time she made the weird noise. we woke I decided to make this really cool hammock thingy (amanda brought down this tinkertoy box thingy, it's sticks and stuff of wood that you can make into different forms and such). anyways we decided to make it really tall and remove the hammock portion of it because her bird didn't like it lol. it was fun, but we tore it down.

in other news i'm going to the clinic tonight because my stomach has gotten really bad. don't want to go into any details but i'm in a lot of pain most days and it effects what i can and can't do. anyways today is pretty bad but not as bad as it's been in a long time so i'm hoping if i load up on extra-strength advil the pain will slowly dissipate.

anyways Ferin is doing quite well wink i've done so much research on cockatiels i could write a book lol. it's funny because theres a bunch of toys in his cage but he doesn't know what to do with them. i'm planning on making my old room his "room". his cage is already in there but i'm planning on having a play pen in there for him and a bunch of other knick knacks so that he can walk around and play. it'll make him a little more independant, but still bond with me at the same time because i'll be in there helping him and teaching him that toys are fun wink We had this old cat house that the cats are too big for and so Sab and I re-painted it and i'm planning on hanging toys and having treats in there for him. there's two stories in it so i think it'll be quite fun for him.

speaking of birds, Sab's birds had babies again. theres 2 little ones and there so cute. i don't think i'll take a second one though because i only want one bird. when oyu have 2 they usually bond to one another instead of with you and that's not what i want. plus my cage isn't big enough for two birds. anyways because school is starting in 2 weeks or so, Amanda and Sabrina aren't going to be able to feed them 4X a day, so i'll probably come over during the day and feed them. knowing me i'll probably bond to one or both of them and it'll be extra hard when they're old enough to give away. oh well, i can't just let the littlins starve! anyways i doubt my parents will mind if i end up taking a second one since they're in love with Ferin, but i'm not entirely sure if i should or not, especailly since they're siblings i wouldn't want them mating...or if they're two boys i don't want them being aggresive towards one another. anyways the only way you can tell they're sex by they're feather patterns is when they're 6-10 months old and that's too long because they'd already be living together for months and months and i wouldn't be able to give one away....

annnnnyways i should go, my mom is leaving work in about 5 minutes and i should get ready before she comes to pick me up. i'll update when i come back from the clinic to let you know how i'm doing.
