Moments ago...moments ago!!! I was sitting on the couch getting ready to write a nice post about "i love you's" and how hard it is to drag those words out of my kids mouths, lots of "right back at you's" and "me too's."
Anyway, i heard a little scritch scritch underneath me, from within the sofa! At first i thought it was lucy or doodle scratching at the couch to make a bed (a leftover instinct from sleeping in barns). But no! They are upstairs in bed with the kids. It was something else, something little and prbably rodent like. OMFG. The horror.
We realized a few weeks ago there were mice (or something worse) in the wall and the crawl space so we put in some traps and caught one alarmingly large mouse (or small rat.) And then we hilariously thought that was that. Then we heard more scritching...
ALERT - i was just instant messaging and the mouse peeked out from under the couch at me! That sound you hear is me running screaming upstairs.

I hate rodents. I had them at my old house and the place I rented in college was infested with them. I lived in a string of townhouses and all of the roofs were connected, so the mice just ran back and forth between the roofs. *shudder* I'll never forget walking into the kitchen to get something to eat and finding a pregnant mouse on my kitchen floor giving birth! Talk about disgusting.
Anyway. Back to you. YUCK. Mice suck.
