man...i guess i'm a screamer afterall. (not a high pitch sketchy one
though)
we have, or had a mouse running around downstairs, where my bedroom is
located. it was running around last week when i was sleeping. the next
morning, i was like, i'm going for the sure thing, kill that sucker with
poison. so i got some from safeway and deposited all over my room.
after a week, it was still running around. arrggh.
but last night, i looked at the poison, and noticed that a lot of it was
eaten up. i was talking to my sister while walking to my room, and upon
turning around, i saw the rodent at the front of my bed, near the
entrance of the door. i was like..."aaahh!!! the mouse! aaaahhhhh!" i
almost stepped on it. after calming down, i got some gloves, and a
paper bag, and tapped him into it.
yeah, he was definitely dead. i think the poison causes some kind of
paralysis b/c the mouse was stiff. he looked pretty full too...i guess
he ate a lot of the poison. anyhow....maybe that's too much details.
i hope there aren't anymore.
btw, i killed a mouse before, but never with poison. it's weird that it
was just lying there dead. funny, one time i purposely trapped myself
in the bathroom with this other mouse. i was like, crap, i don't want
you dropping all over my house. so i had a broom, and kept on trying to
whack it. well, i finally got it. but i had my adrenaline going, so i
wasn't as much scare as concerned with it escaping.
mouse stories. i have another one, but it was from a friend of a friend.
oh well..k..back to work
