All I want is...

A Pet Peacock!!!! Am I asking for too much? Let me explain. After the dirtiness happened on the shelf in my room, one lizard was dead. I wanted to wait and let my language tutor move it the next day, but I was scared it would start smelling. So Abby and I tackled it. I successfully scooped it into a box and Abby then threw it over the balcony. It was a great team building exercise.

Well the next day my language tutor said that I should get peacock feathers and put them in my room. He said that they are scared of the feathers b/c peacocks eat lizards. I don't want to chance it with feathers; I want a peacock!!! I have been thinking that I could keep it out on the balcony and bring it in when I see Papa Iguana. When we went rafting last weekend, we saw a wild peacock on the side of the mountain. Maybe that was my God given chance to capture it and bring it home w/ me. I'm getting ridiculous thoughts. The peacock is the national bird here, so it would roughly be equivalent to me having a pet eagle back home. I'm losing my mind.
