I can't pick a bird

So, okay, years ago my mom told me about a teacher, kindergarten or early elementary, who would start the school day wearing an apron with different birds on it. And as a child came into class she would ask him or her to pick a bird that they would be for the day.
If the child was having problems picking a bird she would know to treat him or her with a little bit of extra care or compassion because it meant that they were a bit off-center that day.
There is some sort of scientific reasoning behind this and I will hopefully know it in a few short months, but in the mean time, today I just can't pick a bird.
Meh.
Maybe I'll scrub the bathroom floor.
