Mouse House Part 2
<<2007-10-23 - 11:16 a.m.>>

I've been asked multiple times since my last blog, "So, have you caught the mouse yet?" No, I hadn't but since I hadn't seen him or any new mouse poop, I thought that maybe, just maybe, he had gone through the floor before my uncle closed it up.


I was wrong.


Last night as I was walking my my bed to the bathroom for a final teeth brushing and to pull back my hair, I saw something on the floor that didn't look quite right.




If you're wondering why the picture is somewhat blurry, it's because the thing IS NOT DEAD!!! It was while looking through the lense of the camera that I saw the movement and I'm not sure if the blur is from it moving or me moving. He was obviously very sick, and I think it might have had a broken leg.


Anyway, he wasn't alive enough to put up much of a struggle, I scooped him up into a paper bowl. It wasn't until just this moment that I notice the irony in the bowl I picked:



I quickly went to my back door and launched him into the night.


Ladies and gentlement, my mouse issues are over, except for the nightmares and skittish feeling in my legs when I go to bed.




PS-I sent some of these pictures to some friends and family over my phone. I got the usual responses like, "yikes" or "Ewwww" or "Ickkkkk" or "why did he let you pose him that way?" Of course, the most memorable comment was from Curtis: "Aw, isn't that sweet?"

Sweet isn't exactly the word I would have chosen.
