When I was a child I would use my imagination to create happy circumstances. My family would sometimes say, "Baby has quite an imagination!!" (They called me Baby because I was the youngest girl of eight children).
So, Byrdie, in my mind The Nest is configured like this: There is the main Nesting area where Nesters usually hang out. However, there is also a hotel wing not too far from the main area. Really, it's only a short walk down the hall and one floor up on the elevator. You will know that you have arrived at the main area when you hear Nesters laughing and supporting each other while munching on popcorn and all decked out in flannel jammies and robes. After all, this is a respectable Nest!! Yes, you will hear laughter but it is NOT the laughter that comes from the Bar. Of course, there is no Bar in The Nest (absolutely not!!), but if you squint you can see the Bar on a faraway branch. The laughter there is obnoxious, fueled by alcohol. Folks sometimes stumble over from the Bar, and Nesters welcome them with open arms.
So you see, Byrdie, that you are not alone. If you want to bunk with one of us, just bring your pillow. We're kind of short on pillows. However, we do have lots of butt Velcro. We always keep extra on hand. We never, ever want one precious Fledgling to fall from The Nest.
Time to quiet down and snuggle in for the night, Nesters. Please remember to strap yourselves INTO The Nest rather than ONTO Byrdie. Thank you very much and may you have the sweetest of dreams. You are loved. ~
