As you may know, many a mouse have found their way into my house lately. Well, I was in my kitchen this evening, and I saw something scurry across the floor. My dad was in the other room, and I said to him "WHAO! There goes another mouse!" But, it was HUGE! So, I said "IT'S HUGE!!" He told me there was a container next to the fridge for catchin' mice, so I went to fetch it, but it was WAY too small, so I said "Oh, this thing is way too small!" He asked "How big could this thing be?!?" Well, he saw it, and said "That's huge!!" I got a closer look at it, and it wasn't a mouse at all... it was a flying squirrel!!! But, nevertheless, it had to go, so the chase began. It was a wirey little bugger, and it gave us a run for our money... bouncing off walls and running into corners. At one point I dove across the room and tossed the bucket I had to try to catch him, but I missed by half an inch... DAH!! Well, we managed to get it cornered by some floor level windows, took the screen off one of them, opened it up, and wrangled it out... but, the point of the story is THERE WAS A FLYING SQUIRREL IN MY HOUSE!!!! Next thing you know racoons and foxes are gonna be walking around and chillin' on my couch... dang critters.
