a MOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
15 years ago
General
well,.it all started a few nights ago,.my husband normally gets home around 10:45-11:30 and i was still waiting at midnight. i was very upset and decided to be selfish and go to bed without dinner....
i had been laying in bed for about 5 minutes when i heard the screams....
"SQUEEEEEEEK! SQUUUEEEEEEEEEKK!!!!!"
i was like ''wha..the..? AWWE FUCK"
i ran over and turned on the light in the bedroom, to find my younger of two cats laying on his side, using a rodent of some kind as a ball...batting it around and the poor little thing looked like it was going to have a heart attack...
so i smacked the shit out of Link and threw him out of the room.
...i went back into the closet to see the damages...
(heres the thing about our closet...its very big,.it has my prom dresses, a full size solid Oak dresser, and a litter box over in a private corner for the two smaller men in my life lol)
the mouse was fine,.no holes or bites or even claw marks..but it WAS traumatized. The little field mouse was cowering in horror behind the litter box.
i poured out a box that had some pottery i had made in it onto the bed and grabbed the empty box. I then went into the closet and sat down in front of the litter box and moved it a bit to make sure the mouse was still there...she was.
i closed the closet door and blocked it with a towel,then, putting the box up against the wall very quietly i pulled the litter box away from the corner and the tiny mouse went into the box.
.....it was a little female field mouse...with light brown fur and a little tan belly,...
"OH MY GOD YOU ARE AAAAAADORABLE!!!!"-at this point the mouse freaks out and jumps out of the box and hauls ass under the dresser.
"fuck!"
so then i put the box on the wall next to the dresser, and get down on my stomach with a flash-light to see where she ran to....
....she was gone.
But after inspecting the dresser with the flashlight,...i noticed something odd...
...behind one of the legs of the dresser was a tiny tail.
i stood up and went over to the wall and shined the light down the side. "there you ARE!!" "OH MY GOD SOMEBODY GET ME A CAMERA!"
She was about an inch off the ground with her legs against the leg of the dresser, with her back against the wall holding herself up like a tiny Ninja. But the tiny Ninja tail gave her away.
i grabbed one of my husbands many English-style swords, and shooed her back into the box.
i set the box upright and peeked over the side to make sure she was there. Just then, she FLYs out of the box, lands on my arm, runs up to my elbow and dives back down behind the litter box.
WTF it wasnt supposed to be the hard. She KNEW i was gonna close the lid T__T...
okay, so i put the box back next to the littler box and tried to shoo her into it,..she avoided the box and ran back under the dresser...and disappeared again.....
"what the fuck MAN"
so i put the box back next to the wall, got the sword and the flash light, and got down on my belly to look under the dresser...she was hiding behind the leg again, but this time has pulled her tail up T__T so i couldnt see her.
SHE WAS LEARNING O_o
i shooed her back over to the box but at the last second she vears away and runs straight at my FACE!
before i could freak out or scream the mouse launches herself through the air, lands on my neck, and the launches up and into the littler box.
T__________________T
so,.i try the box again,..she avoids it completely going under the dresser...AGAIN.
so then im like 'fuck that' and i open the door and grab the little empty trash can from my bedroom...
...i then use the little white trashcan insted of the box and she runs right in.
(somewhere in all this commotion Chris gets home and my roommates are all in our room waiting..)
...i used my Queen record to block the top.
oh my god,.so after ALL THAT,.chris and i take a drive down the street. it was about 2 am by this point. and we stopped by a ditch to let her go.
we get out of the car,.go over to the ditch with the flash light and the trash can,.and i put the trash can down so Chris can see the cute little mouse i caught....
..the mouse (without hesitating) runs out of the box turns around and then runs between Chris and me back out into the street.
....i followed her with the flashlight for a quarter mile as she ran at a walking speed along the road and back towards our house T____T
dude...wtf.
next time i catch her.. shes sleeping with the fishes.
i had been laying in bed for about 5 minutes when i heard the screams....
