I forgot to share a story about the Hindu temple yesterday. The people who run it also have a small farm type thing on the grounds. They have mini cows (I don't mean calves, I mean a mini breed of cows), Lamas, huge carp fish, peacocks, and a parrot. I was standing by the parrot cage (which is a feat because birds and I aren't really the best of friends) and the parrot starting moving it's head up and down and then it stared at me and said "Hi!" It was actually quite cute. Then it moved closer to the front of the cage so I stepped back and to the side and he moved to the side with me and did the head thing again (I think it was bowing) and said "Hi!" again. It was quite the experience for a bird hater like me. Maybe all birds aren't created equal.My word of the summer for today is lugubrious. it means expressing sorrow. I'll use it in a sentence:
Katy said that Butch Walker had to postpone his tour in Arizona, I'd like to be more lugubrious but I really don't care.

I remember when you were little and while on a visit to the pet shop, you quietly said, "that parrot is trying to eat my pigtail." I turned around and sure enough, this huge parrot that was just standing on the top of his cage, was trying to pick off the little balls on the rubber bands that were holding your pig tails. I always thought that was the reason you really didn't like birds.
