I'm going to BLOG!!
Sooo...
Lately I've felt like blogging then not blogging so its been really odd.
I went to the ren faire... AGAIN.
I was joking with Jennie that she had to help me "pick up chicks" as it were, but she took me serious and was trying to hook me up with girls at the faire. Actually, it was more her friend "Kryss" who was there with us.
Speaking of Kryss, that guy was cool. I told him if he lived here instead of Charlotte that we would probably hang out playing Xbox, talking shit and drinking tequila.
We got to see some fun shows at the faire and my friend Jessica was there too.
I had a rough night driving out there, I forgot my ren shirt, and left the window open next to my new bird, Freek. I was afraid the poor thing would freeze to death and I would have killed my 2nd bird. Well, I dunno why the first one died but anyway... I now have a lovebird.
Freek is pretty awesome. Wanda, the pet store owner, gave me a lovebird book. I read they like branches so I got one outside and put it in his cage. He loves to climb around on it and even hang upside down, which is great to watch. Just today he seems to really like the swing perch too, swinging on it a lot.
I built him a custom perch with dowel rods, wood screws, and some plastic gutter shield (to um, catch the droppings) and I put him on it. He is getting attached now so that every time I put him on the perch he just flies back to my shoulder or lands on my head.
When I went to the pet store to pick him up last week it was cool. I saw a parrot named Broccoli. Wanda had taught it to slide down one side of his circular perch and say "Wheeee!" at the same time. That was hilarious.
Then I got a Sun Conyer on my shoulder, Tequila. He pulled my hoop earring out. Then he wouldn't leave my shoulder.
They had a dog there... Bailey I think. It is a puppy. It likes to pull people's socks off. I had my boots on so it would latch on to my boot and try to pull it off. I played with bailey a lot, it was fun. Oh yah, Bailey is a she.
I thought my bird was a he, but then the bird book says if it sits with a wide stance on the perch its a she. But then it said how it keeps its tail feathers shows more what sex and it does it kind of like a he. So I'm leaning toward he again.
At the faire I was dressed like a pirate. I had some great fun role playing with some kids. They had a wooden sword and I offered to show them the "real" way to fight with a sword. They were shy at first but soon we were all talking about Blackbeard and fighting at sea. When I left one of the boys gave me a plastic doubloon which I twirled between my fingers. Later I saw some kids in a wagon and a little girl about 4 or 5. I had fun talking to them, and the girl said she would be a Pirate Princess when she grew up. Even after I left she kept coming up to me saying "ARRRR!"
I've felt weird this week, like my meds are off. Really weird. But I just have to push through it. I didnt even want to go to work to day. But what can I do, call in "weird"? :)
I started writing my first pop-punk song for my new band. Its called, so far anyway I'm a Stalker. Here's part of it:
It’s been three months
I lost my head
I said three words that night
And broke the rules
With you
Now I’m a stalker cause I
Said I loved you
So, this weekend is NERO... I'm going to play my minstrel and sing, SING, SING! So look out.
Ugh, what a mess. I warned you I was about to blog!
