My Arm Has Fallen Asleep

Oh, the discomforts I go through for the sake of my birds. Numerous times a day I will have: various body parts go numb, restless leg syndrome, bleeding eardrums, feathers in my coffee, and feetie prints in my mashed potatoes.

As I type this, I have a precious baby, snuggled against my chest, leaning into my hand for support. We've been sitting this way for an hour, her sleeping and me playing around on my computer. I was content sitting on the couch with the dogs, but she wasn't content being on her cage. So, she hopped to the floor and started walking towards me, letting me know that she wanted held!

I've had people tell me that birds, "do not cuddle. That's a human want." Yeah, ok. They're missing out on a lot if they think that.
