Have you seen Marley & Me? I thought it would be another typical Owen Wilson movie where his hysterical musings seem to never end. We were pleasantly surprised by this wonderful movie. I haven't been this sad over a dog since My Dog Skip. It almost makes me want to get a dog, just to try and get that one in a million dog that has that almost human like quality. Alas, we will just have to stick with our bird.
Bird has been with me since middle school. That would make him around 15 years old (plus or minus a few years). When my parents moved while I was in law school, he came to live with me permanently. Bird was a welcome companion. He ran to the edge of the cage (as much as Cockatiels run) to see me off in the morning. He was always there when I returned home after class.
When my husband, then boyfriend at the time, first met Bird they weren't the best of friends. Now Bird likes my husband more than me.
And yes, the bird's name is Bird. More on that later.
