Last night, while washing the dishes, I saw something dart across the floor out of the corner of my right eye. It moved very much like I would imagine a mouse would move… gah!

Today, I informed the management association that I have a mouse and then went to buy a trap. I briefly considered looking for a live-catch trap but to be completely honest, it’s a freakin’ mouse.

However, I saw the little guy face to face tonight while cleaning some things up that have been lying against the wall for quite some time now. I think that this mouse was camping out in my bedroom! I don’t know how long he’s been around, though the fact that I used to have a cat living in this apartment tells me that it probably moved in sometime after the cat moved out.

I did feel a moment of compassion for the little beast… but at the end of the day… it’s a freakin’ mouse. So I moved the trap into the bedroom and set the cardboard up so that there are no byways against the wall. I’m hoping that we can have an expired mouse shortly and that he’s a loner.
