And so thus did the world end...
Early one tuesday morning, so early in fact that I could not tell if it was night or morning, I woke with a start to a scuffling noise. As soon as I woke up, it stopped.
I dismissed it as only the wind or some other force of nature.
I closed my eyes again and slowly drifted out of consciousness........SCUFFLE SCUFFLE!!!
Dang. There's something under my bed. But what? Every time I move, the noise stops. Every time I am almost asleep, it starts shuffling around again. After an hour or so of this, I still can't get up the guts to see what it is, and so I simply go to sleep, weird noises and all.
Next morning when I wake up, I look under the bed. I don't see any alligators or elephants, thanks goodness. But when I got home from school, my mom tells me that something had gotten caughtin in one of the adhesive spider traps under my bed..........
A Mouse!!!!!
He had spent all night trying to chew his way out. So sad.....
