Because around 11am in the morning I was in my office/cube talking to a co-worker when out scurried a mouse, which ran behind my filing cabinet and then behind my desk. We both screamed and ran out of the office. So I found one of the only 3 males that work in our office and he came to check it out. He couldn't find it (of course) and the second he walked away it ran out of it's hiding place and my heart started beating wildly. So I ran out and wouldn't go back into my office for a while. I wish Icould say they looked Just like Mickey...but unfortunately no such luck.
Side Note: This reminded me of the house I lived in in college with 4 of my girlfriends where it was mouse infested. My friend Abbey and I lived upstairs (I lived in what I'm pretty sure was a closet at one time, as it was like 4x4, no heat vent and the closet was in the hallway, not in my room. Anyways we used to hear them inthe walls scurrying around and chewing up the carpet. Then they would run into our rooms. It was literally terrifying. I used to want to tape my mouth shut just in case one came up my bed while I was asleep. Ugg gives me the shivers right now. I can't tell you how happy I was to be out of that place!
Anyhoo, fast forward to the end of the day and we had caught 4 mice, running all over the office. They just kept finding them. Of course by the time we called the exterminator he couldn't find any (probably because we'd caught them all!). They were all pretty small so we think that they have a nest and had babies in the office. We'll see, I don't know how many more days I can handle this. I would stomp every time I came into my office just to scare one away if it was there!
On the plus side, my washer/dryer got delivered and installed last night (insert applause now). No more having to take my laundry to my parents house! Yay!
Well it's a long day at the office today, I have tastings so I'll be working until about 8 or 9pm tonight all the way in Plymouth. Then its 1 more day of work and I'm off to Iowa for Christmas! Yippi! :)
I hope you pictured me standing on my desk in my underwear in the middle of the night when you thought about our old house!

ReplyDeletehaha yes Abbey that is exactly what I pictured...gross I hated that house!
ReplyDeleteRobyn-I didn't even get close enough to that thing to murder it, I just screamed and ran away!
