matrixrefugeeFinished writing/typing/posting chapter one of "A Little Child Shall Lead Him". Happy Birthday, Dark Puck! I'm thoroughly enjoying writing this fic; the ending is finished, I just have to write the middle of it: the Mero/ Oracle conversation... and his midnight ultimatum....
And my dad has started trying to get Merry the budgie to sit on our fingers! Merry won't hop up on anyone's finger when we take him out: My dad has to reach in and grab hold of him (very gently). The little widget makes a terrible fuss when he does, but soon enough, the wee birdie is sitting pretty on my dad's finger... and on my mom's for a few moments... and even mine, though he likes to bite me! But then Merry gets rambunctious and decides to go jump on Oskar the cocketiel's cage, startling Oz and anNOYing him to no end! He's such a dear little thing... our 'special sparrow'...
He's got quite a vocabulary now: "Come here!" and "What're you doin'?" are his favorites. I was standing right by his cage the other day, and he looked up at me and said "Come here!" If I was any closer, I would have to be *in* the cage with him! Silly bird...
