Missing Merry

[matrixrefugee]

I had a pretty good day today: brought back some DVDs to the library, picked up a few used books at their mini-book-sale (including Anne Rice's "Queen of the Damned", just days after folks were discussing it in the carpe_ho_ras chat room). Also went to Blockbuster for the first time in months and rented a few more DVDs (first two disks of the first season on both "LOST" and "The Tudors").

But I was tooling around FaceBook just now when an ad for a game called Birdland caught my eye, and for some reason, the blurb and the adorable little cartoon parakeet that accompanied it just brought back to mind that it was a year ago this week that our little wonder-bird Merry passed away after a brief illness. I just lost it and I cannot stop crying, thinking about our little birdie buddy. Flurry, our little yellow parakeet, whom we adopted a few days later, has blossomed into a shy little sweetheart, who delights us with his soft little chatter and his acrobatics, but I just miss our little blue mischief maker.
