These posts are cracking me up ...and I can relate to all of them! Is it bad that I'm thinking "what's so weird about that?!"

lol
You know it's bad when : your husband wants to go out to eat but insists on taking the motorcycle because the restaurant is in the same plaza as Petsmart and no way you can take a bird home on a motorcycle.
(I think he under estimates my bird transport skills)
LOL This is funny!
I had to be literally dragged out of a pet store once by my partner with my heels in the ground because I wanted to buy a canary who was 'speaking' to me.

You spend more time talking to your birds than to people, and the conversations are better.

Now I'm envisioning my finches wearing goggles and a long scarf like Snoopy when he was the Red Baron!!
@Diana Did the canary throw himself against the cage as you left and shout "Wait! Don't go! I love you!!" ?? Because that's what the do to me when I walk away
@Nerien My husband recently commented on how much I talk to my favorite Society, Mr. Bump. I said I didn't think I did it that much and he informed me that I only carry on a full conversation with him every time I pass the cage

Societies
Indian Silverbill
Green Singers
Red Billed Fire Finches
Red Cheek Cordon Blues
Owls
2 Parakeets
Umbrella Cockatoo
A Beagle, a Basset Hound, and 2 cats!

You know it's bad when you identify people as their finches.

I am flattered, she is the most beautiful finch I have at the moment.

But I understand. My mother used to call my dog with my name and me with hers sometimes:)))

...you're sitting in your living room on your sofa when random bits of feather fluff float by and land on your face.

You know it's bad when you buy a new bird/s, and then remember that you didn't pay the bills.

It's even worse when you know going in that it's either the electric bill or a new finch, and you still go for the bird!
And I just noticed this morning I have more bird seed in my freezer than people food.
