for about two months.He has the run of the condo
and he landed on my captain's hat and hung down
from the peak and looked me in the eye.
I looked up and said: "Whatcha doin? "Now as
I said he's not that old and his reply was not

What he said was: "What's it to ya? "
I didn't have the heart to correct him.

Write! This was a singular moment. None of my budgies spoke. But I was in your moment. Now it is mine.

He knew what you said. He wasn't trying to repeat; he was just giving a smart-Alec reply!
