jessdecutie18 Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 So today I've been thinking, and thought I'd start this and see what people have to say Lol, I know some of my friends think I'm 'bird obsessed' and I only have 1 now! So here goes it: I know I'm bird obsessed because I can sit and watch my bird forever, getting into things and being goofy. Today in the kitchen I watched her for 15 minutes as she tried to figure out how we make water come out of the facet, trying to grab it with her beak and throwing water everywhere. I know I'm bird obsessed because I love visiting bird stores, even when I know we don't need anything. I visited a new store today just to play with the birds and talk to the fellow obsessed store owner with over 20 birds of her own! Finally for now, I know I'm obsessed with my baby because I can't get enough of this forum! I love hearing new stuff about everyone's Greys and getting ideas to try with my baby!
lovethatgrey Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 When I go grocery shopping I'll see a food item that I would usually ignore and say to myself '''hmmm... I wonder if Sachi and Emma would like this purchase." Then the food item goes into the cart. Only for my fids would I do this.:blink:
particle77 Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 When you start looking at floor plans for new apartments, even though you HATE moving, because maybe if the furniture was arranged just right you could fit that 8ft. diameter walk-in aviary you saw online into that apartment...
pearllyn Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 ...even tho Alfie prefers my fance - won't look at me when he's in the room, bites me when she's in that mood, is the messiest little critter I ever came across, not content with just dropping food off the edge of her bowl - she actually throws it! And I love her to bits! particle77 wrote: When you start looking at floor plans for new apartments, even though you HATE moving, because maybe if the furniture was arranged just right you could fit that 8ft. diameter walk-in aviary you saw online into that apartment... Lol - this takes obsession to new limits! Great thread - it has the potential to be very entertaining! Thanks for starting it! x
JillyBeanz Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 You come in from work each evening, walk past your husband and kids and go straight to your parrot (or is that just me!!!). I used to buy myself something every weekend - I'm more likely to buy a new toy or treat for Harvey!!! :laugh:
ramsabi Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 Before my contribution, Karma to you for starting this thread. I am looking forward to great posts !!
katana600 Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 Uh oh, it seems like all the obsessions are rolled into one for me. Hopefully it is because Juno is so new and we waited so long. Yesterday I bought a pomegranite and fresh figs even though I have been thoroughly warned it will make a BIG mess. In a week, the toy cupboard is empty, he has three cages now and a mammoth tree. Please tell me this will fade in time and become more reasonable.
ramsabi Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 Your browsing history and favourites show only bird websites, bird-toys sites and the Grey Forum !!!
Joolesgreyuk Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 Christmas presents for the fids are first on your list
Janfromboone Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Jillybeans took mine - I have to watch that. You know your obsessed when you find yourself answering your friends with your birds favorite sayings and with his same expression and delivery. This really happens. I hear my birds words when I talk. Am I OK??

jessdecutie18 Posted November 16, 2009 Author Posted November 16, 2009 Lol, I knew I wasn't alone in some of these things
pearllyn Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Lol Jess, you most certainly are not! Great thread tho, thanks for starting it! x
kittykittykitty Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 When I make phone calls so I can hear her talk, when my first question is about her, when I plan a trip so I can see her and be with her.
rbpittman Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 When your husband is away from home for 2 months and all you talk about to him on the phone is Dixie and Beau, her new words, how he's doing, and he has to ask about his 13 year old son and his camping trip this weekend (yes this really happened, today to be exact!).
CuteMandaPanda Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I could have written this post myself! Glad I'm not alone.
