Hello? Is anyone still reading this blog?
If so, do I have some great news! I've just started using dragon dictation software, and this has opened up a whole new chapter in my blogging life. I can just sit here and talk about anything, and it comes right up on my blog. It's almost like tweeting. Except that I can go for a lot longer than 140 characters. And, it's even faster than typing. I never thought anything would be faster than typing, but this is much faster. In fact, I just wrote can, my boss, a really really long e-mail, just because I was bored. Well, let me tell you about what's new. I'm really happy because I finally caught a mouse that has been harassing us for the last couple of months. I first noticed it when I was sitting on my couch and scurried across the dining room floor. Then I went out and bought a couple of those little sticky trap mechanism things that you go to the hardware store. They're the kind that have a sticky thing on the inside, and then when the mouse goes into it it snaps down on it, supposedly killing it very quickly. However, when the mouse actually got stuck in it, the mechanism didn't release. So I had to manually release the mechanism. Then, to my dismay, the mechanism simply hurt the mouse, and didn't kill it. So then I had to take the entire thing outside, and stomp on it with my booted foot. That killed the mouse really quickly, but I'm still pretty upset that the trip was so pathetic. So today, I went out and bought a couple of different kinds of traps. This was precipitated by the fact that we discovered that a mouse had gnawed its way into Britain's snack cup and had pooped in it. I thought Brin had simply nibbled at the little rubber corners, but it turns out a mouse had done that, sneaked its way in, and cooked! I was livid. So today I bought the new traps, and they baited them with peanut butter. Just about an hour and a half ago I heard the trap spring and the little rustling noise came from it. To my great delight I found a little mouse tail sticking out of the trap. The trap had worked perfectly. On the box of the trap it said that it kills mice, guaranteed. I'm not sure exactly what that means. Does it mean that it kills the mouse instantly, or eventually? In other words, does it just trap the mouse, and the mouse dies of dehydration? I sort of assumed that it meant that killed the mouse instantly, although now I'm starting to doubt that. I simply threw the trap in the outdoor garbage can. Now I'm wondering if that mouse was still alive in her. Hopefully it wasn't, but at least it's really cold outside, so it wouldn't have to suffer long I hope. Anyway, I'm procrastinating, and need to get back to my paper. Tata.
