The common house sparrow, which is actually an invasive species from Europe, is probably my least favorite bird. :-)<br /><br />Elly and I share many interests, including bird watching, gardening, cooking, wine, and reading. We both love dogs. We have similar taste in music, movies, and art. We both prefer to spend our time at home. Consequently, when we're not at work we spend almost all our time together. We rarely go out to eat. We never go to bars. Some people would say this sounds really boring, but the truth is we never have enough time to do everything we want to do.<br /><br />On the other hand, we have any number of couple friends who don't have many common interests, spend much less time together, but nevertheless seem very happy. I guess it just depends on what people expect and want. Relationships are complicated.<br /><br />FiskeFiskehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04563358992094908683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-140635431552056763.post-34090765656419458742009-05-07T06:36:00.000-05:002009-05-07T06:36:00.000-05:00Neat -- you and Elly are lucky to share a (few) co...Neat -- you and Elly are lucky to share a (few) common interest(s). <br /><br />Sparrows are one of the reasons I wanted to be a "bird watcher". I wanted to be able differentiate between the "little brown birds".Cedarwaxwinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07644657373513518914noreply@blogger.com
