They really are. Yes, I suppose that is kind of a harsh viewpoint to adopt, but I’m pretty fed up with birds. Really. For awhile, only caged birds were annoying, because they make noise and you can’t really do much with them, and I guess I just don’t see the point of having a pet you cheap oakley can’t play with. But now I think it’s all birds, at least the smaller ones. Perhaps, though, it wasn’t the birds making noise at 4AM this morning while I was trying to make myself go to sleep. See, we stayed at a friend’s house and therefore were sleeping on the floor. Maybe it’s just that I’m really bad at sleeping on the floor. And so we left at 7:00 this morning because Abe had to work, and I’m thinking, well, I’ll just go to sleep when I get home. But instead I decided not to, I’m not sure why. This is the last chance I’ll have to sleep in my bed until we get back from Minneapolis Sunday.

Also, we got a cat.
