Meet Myles
Posted on Thursday, November 30th, 2006 at 20:40.
On November 18, Arthur & I adopted a jenday conure from Omar’s Exotic Birds in West Hollywood. Arthur talked about getting a love bird from the day we first became cohabitants. We successfully killed two houseplants, so we knew we were ready to take the plunge into caring for something far more expensive.
We chose an androgynous name because we didn’t opt for a blood test to determine its sex. Being from WeHo
, s/he is probably gay anyway.
Myles is playful, friendly, and trainable. He loves to sit on my shoulder or hang on to the hoodie I wear in the morning while I prepare his breakfast and check my email. Hopefully the neighbors tolerate his occasional squawking streaks until we break the bad habit.
