On vacation in Paris, Amsterdam and London, the apartments we rented had no window screens, yet there were fewer bugs in the apartment than we'd expect at home. Are the flies differenet, do they not like to go indoors?

I have been wanting a bird for the longest time....and I think I want a budgie, but im not sure if it would be the right choice for me. Here are what my personal lifestyle and criteria for a bird is:

~I live with a 5 year old (but she knows not to hurt to hurt the bird)

~I have a cat (i could keep the bird in a closed room away from the
cat)

~I want a fairly small bird

~I want an inexspensive bird: $300 or less for initial cost (including cage and toys) and less than $30 every month after

~I want a bird that "could" learn to talk (its ok if it doesnt)

~I dont want a bird that can live over 25-30 yrs (I would take care of it if it did live longer than expected, but only want a short-lived bird)

Please help, and could anyone tell me on average how much a budgie would cost including cage, toys, etc.?

When my sister in law had a baby I watched her older child for about a month during this time. It was continuous she even spent the night for about 2 weeks before the baby and 2 weeks after. I took her to the store and told her she could pick out any outfit she wanted as a big sister gift. The only thing she wanted was underwear, because her mom doesnt make her wear it. So I bought her underwear and a cute dress. A week later the sisinlaw had a garage sale and sold all of her new clothes that i bought her. As I walked around, I found some of my stuff and My other sisnlaw found her stuff in the sale. put in the sale w/o permission. Stuff we accidently left at our momnlaws house. We grabbed our stuff and put it in the car and left. I feel so disrespected. She never said thanks to me for watching the child for as long as I did, and tried to sell my kids stuff at her garage sale. I try to help but she doesn't appreciate it.

befor I explain i am going to say I will get along with almost anyone as long as mutual respect for others is there and people who take responsibilty for themselves no matter their sex, race, age, sexual orientaion, or other differences.

but if you guys really want to know why there is till rascim read on:

as i said in a previous answer in my department at work there are two minority women, the only two who dont feel the need to tend to their job responsibilties. Sad, very sad.

In my apartment complex, we have a multitude of katrina evacuees, the ones still living off the government. They are loud, obnoxious, I have freinds that wont even come visit anymore due to the behavior of these people. isnt that sad. And people wonder why some races get a bad name. It is very sad that people like I have just desribed act as they do, it causes alot of people to look down on the entire race.

more details/......

Due to physical and mental decline, an appt. had just been set to get tested for dementia and then fell, broke her hip and is now in assisted living with diagnosed dementia and in a wheelchair, can't get up or walk on her own at all. The nurses say try hard to walk, etc. to go home. They say that to make her work to get strong but know she is unable. Our sister wants to tell her she will never go home...we feel the urge to protect her and know she forgets anyway...what should we do?

I have difficulty making my characters stay quiet while I'm writing. It's like another track of dialogue that runs in my head. Is there anyone out there with the same problem, and what is the best way to stop it?

Any roleplayers who want to answer are welcome to as well. It's akin to getting stuck 'in character' after a roleplay.
