If you love something set it free

This kind of goes hand in hand with bring your pet to work day. If you haven’t read it already go back and read it first to really appreciate this.

Mini-me has made a pretty good recovery, the cast and the lampshade are all off. My sister lives at home with my mom and is playing with him in the kitchen. She put a coconut in the cage and Mini-me was rolling around in it, eating out of it and just being naturally silly. My sister calls my mom at work to tell her it. With mom instinct in the air my mom says “make sure the slider is shut so he doesn’t fly away.”

My sister brushing my mom off (as she usually does) says he’s not going to fly away, he doesn’t have enough strength yet. My mom hangs up the phone rolling her eyes and goes back to work. Ten minutes later my mom is paged. Brenda: you have a call on line one. Ugh. She answers the phone. Mom, Mini-me flew up in the tree and I can’t get him down! My mom leaves work, goes home and tries to bribe Mini-me out of the tree with some crab meat (which he loves). As he climbs down the branch to take a bite he’s about to fall so he tries to fly. Successful, he flies away never to be seen again.

If you love something set it free. If he comes back to you then you got your $1500 dollars worth. If he doesn’t…………….
