0_0 #1 - The mice ate FOUR oz's of the posion. totally decimated two trays of it. (which is better than the cheap wal mart poison which they never ate and I got sick off of.) This freaks me out realizing the size of/how many mice there are. You know they won't do me the service of dying where i can find them. No, they'll die in the wall.

0_0 #2 - Dudes, it snowed a little last night, enough to make the roads slick. I'm already doing legal road speed (i.e. 60 mph) when I shouldn't be and you idiots are PASSING me like I'm standing still. we're all going to die


0_0 #3 - well SOME of you got free virtual gifts from me. it went to pay status in mid purchase and yeah...NOT that excited to drag out my credit card.

Yours cheaply

Thanks for the gift - free stuff is indeed fun!

Ouch to the poison thing. Is it warfarin? We had a chap from the council come round to dose up our sneaky rat with that stuff. He claimed it was "totally humane", snort.

Our rat ended up dying under the living room floorboards. Dr H triangulated its position by sniffing the floor in a grid pattern until she arrived at the point of strongest stench. Then our landlord levered the floorboard up and I had to pull it out by the tail. My landlord's comment: "Ooh, he's a big lad, int 'e?" (he's from Manchester - landlord, not rat). Helen was out at work that evening but I totally took a lovely photo for her.

Apparently the smell does fade when the creature rots, though - and mice are quite little so at least they'd become skeletal a lot more quickly? I hope you find them, anyway.

I got mine - Thank you! I love running across the freebies :)

And, I wonder... Was it intentionally free or did they catch it and correct it after the transactions started rolling in? The same thing happened with that snow cookie.

Ooo, a cake! That makes two birthday cakes for me this year (yay for being high on the alphabetical list, and I must someday post the pictures of my actual birthday cake--the one I ate as opposed to the one I can just admire).
