Another One Bites the Dust

FUCKKKKKKKK MAN! Okay so I’ve (we) have lost one grandfather, one grandmother, my best friend Jill (yeah she’s a fucking dog, but she was my world), and now our cocktail flew away into the clear blue sky. So who’s the next one to go ...only time can tell. Hopefully I’ll be here tomorrow but the way the luck is going around that could be an underestimate. I’m only joking, I’ll be here... till the end of time.

As for poor Al, Aaron left the front door open without checking his cage first (as I have always told him to do). And yes he flew ...flew like a bird that had never flown before. We spent all night trying to get him to come off the electric line across town. (Aaron chased him for about 2 hours prior to me finding out what happen.) At about 10:30 p.m. we gave up. We went home and talked about him till Aaron felt better. See he loves this bird so much, he is taking it really hard. It was his first bird and we have had him for four years now. All was well by the time we went to bed.

Come morning I guess Aaron decided to drive by the wire we left him on. Sure enough there he was. (OMG I could tell a long ass story but I’m cutting it down a lot). I had to go to work so I left him and my mother there ...yelling for this bird who looks like he wants to come down but doesn’t really know if he should. 20 minutes into work I get a call, "Honey we called the fire department and they are going to help, see if you can get here asap because Terry (fireman) says he would let you go up the ladder to get it, but only you can do it."( How embarrassing is this?) So as soon as I could I left to find them, get another call as I’m leaving the office, "We are two house down from your bosses house in the back yard ...hurry." I get there and OMG there is the fire truck (with the lights on ..lmao), an electric company truck (with his flashers on), my brother in his box-truck for work (with his flashers on), my brother’s girlfriend’s car (with the flashers on), and my mother’s car (with her flashers on). You would think there was some kind of major emergency or something! So I decided to park at my bosses and walk down. As soon as I get there I see the electric guy with this huge pole about 7 inches from Al. As soon as I came in sight Al went to step on the hook on the pole, but instead flew so far away not one of us could see him anymore.

I thanked everyone and told them to GIVE UP! *LMFAO* Terry tells me they got a picture and are thinking about putting it in our local paper. I am dying here folks ....OMG! So all of us loaded everything up and split. Mom said she was going to buy Aaron another bird, but I told her not to because Aaron would only be sadder. I pray Al can find food and shelter and make it out in the wild. Otherwise I hope he flies high ...back to the angels!

~feathery kisses to our birdy, wherever he may fly~
