When shopping for a new house there's only one thing that matters; will the aviaries fit in the yard? 135. When you run out of microwave containers because they all somehow found themselves in the aviaries full of seed (boy did I get into trouble for this). 136. When emailing another budgie nut who's attached overseas you spend 5 paragraphs describing every minute detail of the past budgie month and finish the email with, "So, how are you doing". 137. When friends visit you announce that, "There will be an aviary tour departing in the next 15 minutes but places are limited so be quick". 138. When you can't sleep the night before a budgie auction because you're too damn excited! 139. When taking a sickie your boss signs off the approval form, "Caring for sick budgie.....again".

When, in an intimate moment, your wife asks, "What are you thinking about?" and you know it's certain death if you admit you were thinking about whether your best Opaline hen would go okay with your best Grey Green cock. 147. When you tell your wife, "Hey, remember that time when I told you about the Opaline Sky hen and the Grey Green cock, well they just hatched their first chick and..........ummmm......ohh.......never mind". 148. When you wonder if there's some way of using that Harvey Norman voucher you got for your birthday to buy more birds. 149. When you have to convince the pharmacist that "No, I'm not a druggie, I just need a small syringe to fit my crop needle to". (I really don't think they believed me).
