Mouse-Capades
2009-Oct-19, Monday 08:08 pmSoooo, I'm sure (via twitter) you've all heard that... I have Mice in my house. Well, Dad got me this thing that's supposed to plug into the wall and scare them away (doesn't seem to work well), and a couple of traps. Now, they don't look anything like the old-school traps that I remember. They're all white and plastic. Anyway, last night I set the traps and this morning I peeked inside one... and there was a pair of beady black eyes staring back at me. So I took it outside, opened the shoot and thought I was dropping a dead mouse into my back yard. Well, that changed when the dead mouse hit the ground running and scampered away o..o
So, I tell Dad this, and he replies with, "Well of course. You're supposed to drowned the mouse." O..O I very heatedly informed him that I did not like the idea of killing mice at all, much less having to do it personally. I know it's naive but it seems so... mean. Seriously. I don't mind finding a dead mouse, but finding a live one and then having to kill it? That's different >..< And then one bit me >..> I was trying to get it out of the trap and it bit me.... /sigh. I keep trying to tell myself not to be a child and that it's nothing more than pest control. It's not like it's a terrible thing anyway, considering how fast they reproduce and all.... but... still. It makes me sick. I told Dad to get me poison or traps that kill the mouse right away =..= I don't like having to be any mouse's hangman....someone doodle that in a ScampComic :D
....that's really all I got. For some odd reason, I decided to start watching Heroes last night, S1.... bizarrely enough, I assumed I wouldn't be sucked in to the story line.... Note to self: It'll be a long long time, after man many marathons, before I'll actually be able to resist the story line that is Heroes =..=
...It's been a long day =..=' And... I'm on the last disc of Heroes . So... Later, Sunshines.
