Looking through old photos when depressed wasn't a good idea
This is Mimi. I hand raised him. He was my second but I can't find pictures of his dad Tori. He kept me going the longest and was so sweet. I could take him out without a harness and he'd stick with me. (Very foolish still in retrospect)
When I was too depressed to eat he would even try to feed me. He was a playah and would try to woo all the ladies he met.
I really struggle tonight.

Condolences :( . We recently lost our cockatoo. She was 38. Feels bad, they end up being family.

I miss my dad. He could fix anything from fighter jets to high heels.

Those pets we choose to accompany us are really some of our best companions and also our biggest heartbreaks. I'm sorry for your loss, and okease remember all the good moments too. When he made you laugh, when he was the cutest, when he did a smart or dumb thing...

He tried to squeeze into the toaster once. I guess he thought it looked like a good nest. (Toaster was always unplugged).

That was dumb! Thankfully you were there to take care of him!

He was clever in some ways. Understood roads for instance (I forget the term. When you know to get to Y, you first have to walk away?)

When they know to turn around an obstacle in the most direct route is very smart

He never mimicked human speech but he was smart in other ways for sure. Goodnight.
