So I had been having depression issues again, and Mr. Samoa had massive work stress. For this reason, we decided to procure a second pair of zebra finches. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebra_Finch We had had them before and found them to be very cheering; the current pair is no exception. However, the procurement of same was a trip.
We trooped off to Pet World and asked the smiling clerk for a pair of finches, one male, one female. (They recommend you get them this way, not sure why, but whatever.) Weeeellll. The cage full of finches was not so easily bested. They immediately began flapping ("FLAP YOU!" is the new epithet of choice in Casa Z-S), squawking and fluttering about the cage, in general mayhem. It took a half hour, two clerks, and the efforts of both Mr. Samoa and myself to corner two of the little shits. On the way out the door, I said to Mr. S, "Well, now at least I know what to name them- Bonnie and Clyde!!!" So, Bonnie and Clyde they are. Cheeping away, so I guess we won't turn 'em in for now. :D
