Remy...

[fajrdrako]

I got home from work to find that my new blue budgie, Remy, had fallen off the high perch and died in the fall. Hardly more than a baby, and such a sweet little guy. I never even had time to take his photo.

Budgies: so fragile.

Oh HELL. I'm sorry to hear it. *hugs*

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thank you. *Hugs* back.

I don't remember when you get back to Ottawa - ?

[neonnurse.livejournal.com]

Oh, man, that sucks. I'm sorry.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thanks. *hug*

[rosiespark.livejournal.com]

Oh, no. I'm so sorry.

::hugs you::

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

*hugs back* Thanks. He was just so cute! And here so briefly.

[kikibug13.livejournal.com]

Gulp! So... unexpected!
I'm sorry :( *hug*

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Yes. *hug*

[ataniell93.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry!

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thanks. You'd think utter cuteness would be some sort of protection from cruel fate, wouldn't you? But life just doesn't work that way.

[femme-slash-fan.livejournal.com]

*hugs* I'm sorry... Life really blows at times.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Yes. It does. It's the downside of having sweet, fragile pets.

[bright-lilim.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. :(

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Logan is singing tonight and it makes me think of Legolas' song for the death of Gandalf at Rivendell.

[judymoe.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. Poor little Remy.

:::hug:::

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thank. Yeah. Cute little guy. *hug*

I'm so sorry! *hugs*

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thanks! *hug*

[dargie.livejournal.com]

Aw sweetie, I'm so sorry.

[monsieureden.livejournal.com]

Oh my god. :( Not a good week. *hug to you*

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

No, not a good week. A strange week. *hugs back*

[acampbell.livejournal.com]

Oh, NO!!!

I'm so sorry.

That's why I quit getting parakeets. I'd get so attached, and then...

Poor little guy.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Yes - that's the thing about budgies. So easy to get attached.

Aww. I had just sent Remy's Awesome Adventure to DW. Dying in a fall seems odd for a creature as light as a bird, but they have such delicate structure.

Best wishes to Remy wherever he flies.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Yes - thank you. I'm sure the ghost of little Remy thanks you. Yes, he was light, but he was also fragile.

[benbenberi.livejournal.com]

Oh no! Poor little baby bird. :-(

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Yes. So little, so fluffy. I can't help thinking "out, out brief candle". There's a certain perversity in thinking about Shakespeare when I'm feeling down.

Thanks for commenting.

[silverwhistle.livejournal.com]

Gutted. Just gutted.
Poor sweet little baby. This is just...
Big hugs, my dear. I am so, so sorry to hear it.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Empathy appreciated!

[iibnf.livejournal.com]

Poor tiny little soul :(

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

So tiny, so feathery, so... blue.

[wijsgeer.livejournal.com]

condolences for Remy, at least he was not alone on this wis world (someone has to say it).

Maybe next time an other type of pet, a bit sturdier? A hippo or elephant?

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

An elephant might not fit into my apartment. A phoenix, perhaps, who would at least rise from the dead again? I wonder where Dumbledore got his.

Thanks. [hug back]

[gem225.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry. *hugs*

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thanks! *hugs back*

[star-momma.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm soooo sorry! Especially to have another loss so soon :(

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Yes. Doesn't seem right, does it?

[jkluge.livejournal.com]

Oh, no! :-( Oh, poor budgie. Dearest, I'm so sorry for your loss.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Thanks. He was such a great little bird - ! I'll miss him.

[wijsgeer.livejournal.com]

well, if they do breed, do keep an eye on them and let me know if subsequent generations end up smaller than their parents. (thanks)

[loreleif.livejournal.com]

Oh, poo! *HUGS* I'm so sorry to hear that. How are you and Logan doing?

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Okay, mostly. I still feel disturbed when I think about Remy's death and I keep worrying about Logan's welfare. My latest fear is that possibly Remy succumbed to a stray Teflon molecule still in the air, so Logan is visiting maaseru while I air out my apartment with all windows wide open and the kitchen exhaust fan turned on high.

Though frankly, despite my fears for his health, Logan seems happy and healthy and lively. He's sitting on maaseru's table listening to CBC radio right now, no doubt enjoying a change of view.

I'm very sorry to hear this.
