Hello all! I'm back! With a few updates! and questions :)

Apartment Update:
After getting all moved in and Lucy settled, the internet goes out... -sigh- that will be getting fixed on Saturday haha

Job Update:
Everyone LOVES Lucy! <3 she follows me around between my office and big boss man's office just toddling and chirping along happily :)

Lucy Update!
She's fantastic! haha she's got lots of pin feathers coming in (i'm assuming she doesn't have all of her feathers in yet since she's young, so is that normal?) so she's rather nippy. She's learned her first trick (kisses!) and makes kissing noises :) It's so cute! She also took her first bath on her own yesterday, that's quite a funny video haha her current bathtub is a frisbee. (is a frisbee deep enough for her?) I'll share video and pictures when I get more bored at work and have time to upload them!
Edit// She's also quite fond of hard boiled eggs and chicken!! haha kind of a bit of cannibalism... but she likes it! she also happily eats leafy kale :O shreds up green beans and is fond of orange bell peppers, she seems to be afraid of the color orange though... she runs from it!... but will decimate the peppers....
So how are everyone's fids doing? :D

How adorable!

So you take Lucy to work with you? What's that like?

PS: Birds are decedents of dinosaurs, so it's no coincidence that your baby tiel aspires to be a raptor, lol.

lol it's not my tiel but i love playing with all the baby birds <3 Lucy is fun, it's a challenge to keep her occupied as she has recently discovered that mouse pads are tasty and my boss LOVES her and so does the secretary and big boss man, EVERYONE! I ordered her a play perch for work, usually she just sits on the back of my chair and plays with her toys or eats my hair lol

awwe! haha

My mom watched "the Birds" when she was really little (like when it first came out lol) and several run in's with birds makes her scared of them (her falling asleep on the beach and being dive-bombed by gulls at the beach courtesy of my sister throwing her sandwich bits around her while tanning... and my dad's crow billy not liking women and constantly trying to attack her feet many many years ago... LOL)

You'd be surprised how many people are nervous or dislike being around birds (crazy, I know)! My step-sister couldn't stand Alex being near her when I was back home!
