Malcolm came by today for a surprise visit. I was very glad to see him, because I hadn't heard from him since last Tuesday. It turns out I was right. Their phone was disconnected. But instead of getting the bill sorted out; they decided to encourage us Muggle families to get into the whole bird-mail thing. They got us a parrot!
It's a Gang-gang Cockatoo. He's so cute!!! I love him. He's well-trained, so we don't need to keep him in a cage. Well, at least that's what Malcolm says. My mum's complaining a bit about the noise he makes. I don't think it's too bad though. My dad is going to buy him a perch thing so he can rest on that.
We haven't sent him out on a delivery yet. Well, we really just got him a few hours ago.
Malcolm didn't stay long. He had to get back to school. It's so amazing to me that he can get here and get back again in a few minutes. And well...that probably proves he doesn't have feelings for me. If he really liked me that much, he'd be coming here all the time.
Oh well. I'm not going to whinge about that now.
The parrot is fantastic. We haven't given him a name yet. My dad suggested Potter...for obvious reasons. I kind of like that. Julia didn't seem thrilled with the idea. Harry Potter is a hero to us, but to Julia I think he's just one of many classmates who barely noticed that she existed.
Maybe we should name him Malcolm since he gave us the parrot.
Or would that be creepy?

Bit creepy, I like Potter though or Harry.
I'm okay with Harry.
We can name him that if you want.
Really?! You're okay with it?
It's fine. But if you go all mental about it, I'll change my mind.

Please be nice to each other, even if you disagree with what the other person is saying.
If you suddenly feel possessed by a futuristic Muggle, PLEASE go to the OOC section to the right.
