mouse funeral

[sirfeste]

on our way home from the store today we found the body of horace (the mouse from last night) on our front porch steps. i am heartbroken. we held a funeral for him in the backyard, where we told our favorite memories about him ("i remember that time when ithought you were a cat toy, and then you weren't," "i remember when you crawled in my skirt,"

After reading this entry, you are my new official favorite person on LJ. I think that's amazing you read out of Redwall for him. <3

yay being favorite! <3
i found one of his brothers in the dining room yesterday morning, but i was on my way out so i didn't have time for a fancy funeral or anything. i just put him in the flowerbed and covered him up with leaves and bid farewell to horace ii, who was surely slain in battle against the evil dungeon monsters. valiant mouse ;(

Dungeon monsters are vicious. We have one of those at our house. He rears up on his hind legs and bats his fists at my boyfriend's legs, no jokes. It's pretty amusing to watch, but scary sometimes, too. Why can't we have a sane dungeon monster?
