Who's pissing on your chips today?

I had the door closed to keep it trapped in the one room. I chased it around and around the room, with all the windows open, just hoping it would eventually veer out one of the windows. Me in my boxers and undershirt all goosebumpy and spooked out but chasing it anyway. Took about 5 minutes and I really wore it down. It was dragging as it slowly climbed up the wall and out the window. Chipmunks don't have stamina.

My wife had stuffed the bathroom rug under the bottom of the bedroom door, and was waiting out in the safe hallway. The kids never woke up.

I wish I had a video of it. I'd post it here. I'm sure you'd all have a laugh.

lol!

Reminds me of the mouse we finally "trapped" last night. It just drug the trap around the house by one leg. We both just stared at it like...what now? The trap was supposed to kill it. Previously it would just take the cheese and not set off the trap at all.

We ended up scooping it off a counter-top and placing it outside hoping a creature more vicious than we are would find a mouse dragging a trap around and kill it.


I fear the worst this morning, whatever is in here now is aggressive. It's been making lots of noises, and the trap is still on the other mouse's leg. I thought we only had one mouse........
