Repetition: Twittering Tales 117

This time it’ll work out. Sure, she’s my “usual type” – crazy, party girl – but she’s not like the rest. She’ll want to settle down, I’m sure.

Written for/ inspired by Kat Myrman’s weekly Twittering Tales challenge.  This picture started me thinking about how parrots repeat what they hear without understanding it, and how we unconsciously replicate our parents’ mistakes. So this week’s effort is based on that idea – a story about how we repeat, parrot fashion, negative behaviour.
