So… I’m sitting here on my computer, just minding my own business, when I see a little movement out of the corner of my eye, I look up and there he is, my new arch nemesis, Athos. It was the first time we’ve seen each other face to face, we stared into each others eyes for a brief second and then he ran along the floorboard to disappear somewhere over by my bed. The war between man and mouse has begun. I grabbed a blunt object to see if I could frighten him out and give him a good whack on the head, but he made a quick escape. I’m now very frustrated… this little mouse, and perhaps his little mouse entourage, have destroyed two of my towels, taken a roll of paper towel and a roll of toilet paper, chewed up my socks, taken all of the string out of my drawstring shopping bags, removed the fake grass from my fake potted plant, and now they’re appearing in the night whilst I sit on my couch with all of the lights on as if to mock me. I’m pissed. I just set out eight mouse traps that are baited with dollops of delicious Jif peanut butter and Athos is going down. I’m going to flush that little rat down the toilet like the piece of crap he is. Bring it on.
