Mice

[greyface]

I saw the not-rat. It was a mouse (I think). I also think I convinced it to jump out the bathroom window, by locking it in the bathroom

Maybe your computer mouse got melancholia when it saw a true mouse.

Don't say that. I'm clinging to the illusion that the mouse never decided to climb upstairs (where the computer sits). I haven't yet thoroughly searched for rodent feces, and I don't want to.

Unfortunately, you'll find that there are a lot of old men on Facebook, as well. For example, ME! And Peter, and Carlton, and, uhh, Rod.

I never signed up, Shannon signed me up. Just like she did with Friendster and myspace.

It's not the talking to old men thing. It's that my answer to "Why aren't you on Facebook?" was something along the lines of "I already have Livejournal, and why would I want to learn a new widget?"
Which is fundamentally equivalent to this conversation:
A: Look, this is that digital calculator thing I've talked about! It's very handy, do you want one?
B: No, I've got an abacus, I'm set. Thanks though.

More mice

Shannon saw a mouse poking out from under our grape vines today. She couldn't get the dog to pay attention long enough to see it. Hopefully Cash will spot it and chomp its head off.

There are a lot of "neighborhood cats" in my area. I assume they find mice and end them. But I never intentionally feed the cats, so they don't bring me the prize when they do find'em...
