UghhhhhHHHHH 😍 (shut up I'll straighten them later)

Also if anyone knows the artists on the Medusa and the orangey moon goddess, I got those at Anime Boston years ago and have no damn idea who they're by anymore.

Then get the bird in the carrier super easily and don't have to use any tricks. Tada!

(She was very accommodating. It's not usually that easy.)

Here are your essential pieces of equipment for rescuing a bird. A carrier with some paper on the bottom, some high value fruit treats, and a towel. Preferably welding gloves if you can find yours but I can't so 🤷🏻

You know, I've never really sat down and watched Miracle on 34th Street (1994) that I can remember. I catch it on TV here and there in bits.

I put it on while I was putting my Christmas lights up in my room and the scene with Santa signing with the deaf girl is really very sweet. 🥹

I am really just in "Clark Griswold at the end of Christmas Vacation" levels of post-holiday "I did it" bliss here. Gosh.

These two are happy to be back in their own domain.

Holy shit that's a good bird. Probe thermometer betrayed us, it's overdone, but the I'M TOO HUNGRY TO WAIT ANYMORE tests were still perfectly serviceable.

Everything isn't quite back in place yet, but it's getting there. 😭 WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG TO ACTUALLY DO THE WHOLE ROOOOOOM

Look, I know my feelings won't stay this way. I know I will not be happy about this forever. I'll miss the green soon.

But sometimes the grays and the browns come together and the air is chilly but not cold and it just feels correct.

Camped out in the guest room with my very confused cats, BOTH OF WHOM HAVE NOW USED THE MEOWANT SC02 (it's not plugged in but still!!!)

They're quite out of sorts, poor things. Tabatha is OFF THE WALLS affectionate.

Sorry kids, but 😍 he got a first coat on most of the room today!
