Yesterday did not start out well and put me in a really bad mood. I got a call from SG saying that my bird had died. She was fine when she went to bed, but woke up yesterday and she was at the bottom of her cage. I am very sad about this. I loved the stupid bird not only by itself but because it was the last thing I had to remind me of XTGF. While SG felt bad, I am not sure how I feel about her right now. I know birds can be tough if you aren't used to them but still. It could have been anything - fumes from an open window, smoke getting in the house, she could have touched the rats or the bunnies then the bird which is dangerous, etc. I don't know. I told her to put the cage in the other room and I will deal with it when I get home.
The kid and I drove down to Melrose Ave yesterday and did some shopping. I picked up a few things as did she. We also walked down to Hollywood Blvd and went to the Disney Soda fountain. That was fun. We ended up walking like 7 miles in total yesterday. By the time we got back to the hotel, we were both dead. It was only 8:30 or so, but we got into our beds and watched Despicable Me on the hotel TV.
I was also a little pissy yesterday because of work. I wonder what it's like to actually take a vacation where emails aren't coming through all the time. They know I am off but whatever.
I am dreading dealing with the bird and it's putting me in a shitty mood already today. Once again, it just goes to prove that at the end of the day the only person I can rely on is me.
