Fucking a’!
We’ve had this mouse (whom I’ve named Ralph after Ralph and the Motorcycle) make an appearance in the apartment from time to time in the past 2 months without any luck of us catching him. He’s tiny and he’d be cute if he weren’t a stray mouse! We’ve had this little black box trap set up ready to go but he’s been sneaky!
I got home today from work and I’m chilling on the computer when Mommy got home from hanging out with Kitty when she noticed the door to the trap is closed! w00t! Except for one problem: neither Mommy or I can bring ourselves to touch the box to throw him out! This leads to Mommy second guessing if Ralph is trapped and thus causing me to second guess myself. After freaking out, she says call Shelly as she figured Shelly would do it…so I did and she agreed (or rather she agreed to bring Yecenia to throw it out for us). Great!
Not so.
They get here and shake the box and lift the box…but nothing. You can’t feel a mouse in there, can’t hear it, doesn’t make any kind of thunk or scratching when the box was kicked or shaken. So Shelly and Yecenia tell us, nope no Ralph and I figure ok, they’re right because what do I know about catching mice? I open the trap ready to set it again when out of the freaking trap comes none other than Ralph scuttling toward the oven!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGH!!!!! Ralph is on the loose again and I go to bed another night nervous that a mouse could potentially climb a wall and into bed with me
In other news…
It’s July 1st so it’s FREE AGENT FRENZY! I love Free Agent Frenzy and seeing where everyone goes! So a few thoughts:
-Does Chicago feel now that they won the Cup, they feel “hey, we can wait another 50 years for another win!” Seriously Chicago, can you stop trading your team away…it’s getting a bit ridiculous.
-It makes me giggle that Adam Burish who made fun of Chris Pronger isn’t a Blackhawk anymore. Jerk!
-I love Antero Niittymaki <3 However I’m quite depressed the Niittyshark (as phrased by my LJ friend who is a Thrashers fan) is now a Shark! At least when he was in Philly or Tampa, they’d play Washington often enough! I don’t get Sharks games here! I guess there is adthe.net when I need a Niitty fix.
-I’m kind of confused though as much as I love Niitty…who gets rid of Nabokov and then decides on Niitty for a number one goalie? I’m really curious now to follow the Sharks season with a Niitty/Greiss tandem! This is his chance to prove himself ![]()
-I’ll be happy when someone that’s not the Caps picks up Theodore. However, I’m not so sure how I feel of a tandem of Varly/Neuvy in goal – it could be wonderful or it could be disaster.
-Why did the Habs get rid of Halak for Alex Auld and Curtis Sanford? Do you really have that much faith in Price? I know I don’t and I’m not a Habs fan!
-I really like the signing of Martin Biron as a Ranger except I’m really confused by the Islanders. They’re going with Roloson and DiPietro…who hasn’t played a full season in 3 years?!? That’s what happens when you sign your soul to a goaltender who can’t play.
-I would like to know why Jody Shelley is so hated.
-Boogaard is a horrendous last name!
-I get confused every time I go to the hockey TSN site and they talk about a capital situation and I think they’re talking about the Caps only to remember it’s a Canadian site and thus they’re talking about the Ottawa Senators.
-Actually I take that back on the goalie situation in Washington…dear Caps who I adore…please get Nabokov or otherwise please keep Theodore? I don’t want to see any of the other free agent goalies as a Caps player and I don’t like the idea of Varly/Neuvy! Kthx!
