i still have this awful cough that I can't seem to get rid of.I tried to get into the doctor but they are booked until Tuesday.I went into the pet store with my daughter earlier this week not intending to buy anything but I ended up buying a parakeet.It was an impulse buy but I'm glad I did it.I can't have a dog or cat where I live so it's nice to have my bird.He just started making noise this morning.He likes Faith Hill and Tim maGraw.I heard him chirping but I wasn't sure it was him at first.He's been quiet since I brough him home.
