Toss up between a peanut and almond.

Neither. I sleep on my perch. At night when my family turns out the lights in the den, I quietly whisper, “Nite-nite”

Sudden movements. Plus, I hate large objects.

Hanging upside down. Chatting and singing "Tied to the Whipping Post" by the Allmond Brothers..."Good Lord I feel like I'm dying." Oh wait. Isn't it the Allman Brothers?

NEVER. Well, okay, I bite often. But I mean it in a good way.

Any where my Mom goes.
