.. for those who know ..

" en camino to another cita, we came across a parrot in the street just walking around. my comp picked it up and put it on his shoulder. it is weird that the parrot would be in the street, and not inside the house, so he told me that since the owner wasn't taking good care of the parrot, it was his now. he decided to give it as a gift to the daughter of our pensionista .. its carla's cumpleaños today. so we just went ahead and walked a few more blocks to their house and just as he was trying to give her the parrot, some guy comes up and basically says : " uh señor, i'm gonna need that back " haha i couldn't stop laughing. melanie, i am so glad we don't have that striped sweater anymore. i am glad you wear my golfland hoodie instead.
