Now that I'm done for a while with con reports, I can add an inane post to this LJ.

Slippers. Simple little things, but oh so useful.

Got up the other day (fell asleep watching TV). Didn't bother to turn on lights as I went for the door. I stepped on something in the dark that went CRUNCH. I went, crap, I just KNOW it's something the cat or dog left.

Turn on lights.

Squashed mouse.

EUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

At least I know the cat killed it so I stepped on a corpse, but ick, gross. Thank god I put on slippers first.

Well, at least it wasn't just a mouse head. One cat did that. Left it on the landing. Eeeeu, shades of The Godfather....

Well, one cat once left the guts of something inside my car (eeeuuu) while another left a decapitated rabbit on the front doorstep. The newspaper boy wasn't happy, I'll tell ya.

Oh, that brings to mind another cat... who killed several mice and buried them in his kitty litter box. Little dead mice, head and shoulders sticking out, stiff little paws. It was macabre!

Oh god! LOL! I think I would have had to given the cat away. :) The worst thing my little ball of fluff ever did was bring in *live* mice into the house so she could play with them.

Oh heck, at least he brings in DEAD mice, or half a dead mouse.... I'd rather them be dead than get beaten to death off a wall (he likes to throw them everywhere and if he throws them too high and they end up on a shelf...well... it's not a pretty smell).

Wow, who would have thought a post on a dead mouse would stir such conversation! ;)

Ewww! Thank god for slippers! ;)

One time I had been away for several days and came home to find two mice that had fallen into the bathtub and couldn't get out. Upon entering the bathroom, I smelled an awful smell and pulled the shower curtain back and there they were. I'm not quite sure how they got in there in the first place but there they were. The awful smell was the stench of the remains of their third companion, whom they had eaten to stay alive! Ewww! Managed to scoop them up w/a paper cup. They were dazed and weak and didn't put up much of a fight. I handed them over to my dad (who happened to be there at the time). He took them outside and "squashed" them out of their misery. Poor mice.

Euuuuuuuuuuuuu. I had that happen with two mice who fell into a bird feed bin. When I opened it, one had 'melted' and the other was barely alive. I put it outside and hope it recovered. Poor thing!!

isn't it? At least the mouse went crunch, not SPLAT.

Haha yeah. Ohmigod, what if the mouse was so strong or heavy or something that you noticed it and ended up hopping over it, so your foot kinda rolled over it? Hahaha.

If a mouse was that strong, I'd be getting out the BB gun to dispatch the next one! ;)

Hahahaha! That's probably true...
My father used to always make jokes about driving over squirrels and shooting them and whatnot. Splat! Hahahhaa....It's so horrible but it's just so funny too.
I can just imagine the answer to one of those "if actor had control over an episode..." and Torri said "smoke pot and listen to John Lennon's 'Imagine'", I wonder if anyone would say that they should get really drunk and grab the P-90's and start shooting squirrels off world.

Heh, the squirrels would probably shoot back! ;)
