After Weight Watchers today, I went with my friend Kathi to PetSmart because she had to get new Bamboo for her Betta Fish bowl. Well, apparently I can’t go into PetSmart without walking out with some sort of exotic new pet. And today was of no exception.
I bought a new Parakeet.
I say new because I used to have one. His name was Elvis and I had him for about 7 years until he died. And I’ve been thinking more and more about getting another one. Sure it was kinda random to get one today all of a sudden, but I considered it faint or something. I have no reason to ever go there and since I was there – the new little birdy came home with me. I’m sure Kathi thought I had lost my mind.
My bird needs a name.
Since you were all so helpful in naming my Betta Fish – I am leaving it up to you to name my new bird. The bird is a boy… but I am not necessarily glued to having a boy’s name. After all, no one can really tell, right? And he’s so pretty!
oh my word.

congratulations on the new birdie! birds totally scare me, so i can’t come up with any names nicer than “sharp break and claws with crazy flapping wings,” so i’ll leave the naming ideas up to other people.

Uhh I would help you except for my whole unreasonable fear of the feathery thing.

I would call him “Brice” just because it would be really fun to tell Brice that you have him locked in a cage…..Zip!…Zip!….Zipit!….MR

The contest is probably over, but when my boys were young we had a Parakeet and we name him/her (?) Lolita.
