Kirie, I can’t imagine why this post would pop up in a search, but thanks for leaving a comment so it’s no longer hanging out all by itself. I do remember saying ugly things during the phone call but none of the details–thank heavens. And I remember feeling really bad about the whole thing. I loved seeing the photo of the little bird again–from a hotel stay in California. I believe you make up all those details because you are a true storyteller.
