Today began day 1 of the moving adventure into my own place (pictures to come- promise!). I went over this morning to get the beginning stages of the cleaning bathroom, kitchen, vacuuming, etc. I opened the fridge and noticed 2 things:
1. It smelled really bad.
2. It wasn’t turned on.
Before I turned in on with the circuits, I wanted to check to make sure it was/wasn’t plugged in, so like any normal person I moved the fridge back.
And jumped about a foot in the air.
Staring at me was a MOUSE. Literally, just sitting there, staring at me! I WAS FREAKING OUT!!! Now, this is the girl who worked at petsmart for a summer, playing with cute little animals, like mice, on a daily basis. But, this drown one scared me like no other. After my minor heart attack, I decide OK, I can do this, I can kill this mouse. I took the thing of bleach, sprayed the mouse and prayed that it was already dead. Which, as it didn’t move, I came the conclusion that it was. I then positioned the trash can by the mouse, grabbed a rag, and started wiping the mouse into the can. When it flipped over.
And I saw a squeaker.
Yes, my whole fiasco of freaking out that my new apartment actually has a mouse problem was really just a toy mouse that was stuck behind the fridge.
Happy Thursday everyone.
ha ha ha ha!!!!
