The Great White Hunter

As I stalked my prey, I could feel the fear in the room. Yeah, that was my wife screaming and maybe shedding a few tears. I think that she was the only one that was afraid the first night, and the second night, but not the third night. Well maybe just a little. But she shall fear no more, for I, David of Silva, have snared the beast in the craftiest of ways.... Actually I went to Safeway and for around a buck eighty-seven you can buy a pack of two mouse traps... Michelle insisted that I buy three packs...

Well we didn't have any action the first night, and there was much panic. We went to work the next day and hoped it would find its way to the wonderful treat we left, but no such luck... Coincidently we went for dinner to Perkins because we couldn't stand the thought of the beast in the next room, oh and yeah, as if they don't have mice! This morning I checked the house and inspected all the traps.... Nothing! Will the madness ever end?

I got home from work, I first checked the Kitchen.... then the dinning room.... then the living room by the TV.... then by the fish tank.... NOTHING! Please one more left, please let it be the one....


DING DONG THE MOUSE IS DEAD, THE MOUSE IS DEAD, THE MOUSE IS DEAD, DING DONG THE WICKED MOUSE IS DEAD!


And now we shall not fear, for we have conquered the rodent that haunted us at night.... Well mostly Michelle, I slept like a baby....

I am sure that Michelle will have her own take on the events, but I wouldn't believe them if I were you.

By the way, for ideas on how to catch a mouse, check out Wikipedia Mouse Trap

Yippee! Dave vs Mickey, and Dave won!
I hope that was the one and only mouse who decided to take up residence in your house.
R.I.P, Mickey Mouse.
