Nuts.

So, the squirrel that has been scampering around in (yes, in) our roof seems to have gnawed its way right into the attic at last. The only good thing about this was my little sister, in a fit of panic, exclaiming "Oh my god, somebody please call the terminator!" (I still don't think she believes that it's called an exterminator

Catch and release? Uh! You know, squirrels are really just pretty rats.

[strangecreature]

With the 'release' part being on the other side of the river, of course... He's gonna have to be pretty determined to trek all the way back again! ;-)

PS - Don't think I've forgotten about certain fic-writing duties, despite the rodent madness around here either!

*bounces*

Yay!

No, I'm not really bouncing. It's drugs talking. I managed to royally jam my pinkie toe this afternoon. It's a pretty shade of blue now.

Your sister is such a cutie... *smile*! *hehehehehe*

[strangecreature]

Oh, she is! I'm so glad we get along better now that we're both a bit older. :-)

Aww! Your sister is too cute!

I think I'd be going the catch and release route too. Bugs are about the only thing I have little qualms about terminating.

(You're back, you're back! In your honour, please allow us to welcome you home with rainstorms of biblical proportions. *g*)

Isn't she just? She's very quotable like that.

Hear, hear. The only part I'm worried about is putting the cage in my car to drive the darn critter over the river. I can just see the headlines now: Terrified Squirrel Hulks Out, Attacks Motorist's Face - Twenty Car Pile-Up Ensues!

(Well, to be fair I think I brought the biblical rain back from Rome with me. Whoops. At least it seems to have stopped and therefore you won't now have to stone me.)

How goes the squirrel saga?

[strangecreature]

(Aha, the truth comes out! But what am I supposed to do with a half-built ark and all these pairs of animals...?)

The little bugger disappeared the day after we laid the traps! So it's either decided to move somewhere a little less hazardous to rodent-kind or... ick, ick, ick... it's gone and died up there. O_o

Sqirrel! Cuute!! Catch and release please!!!
"Terminator" is really good, but "exterminator" made me think of Daleks... *shudder* Exterminate! Exterminate!! You don't want *that* under your roof, do you...?? *g*

[strangecreature]

Definitely! (Plus, if we'd used poison like my dad wanted to, guess who would be crawling around in the attic looking for dead squirrels? O_o)

Hee!! The only good thing about having Daleks in the roof would be the possibility of Torchwood and/or the Doctor turning up to rescue us. *GG*

Yay for a Wicked icon!

[elebridith]

Well, if Jack and possibly Capt. John would turn up, I'd also house Daleks under my roof... *g*

Yay for Wicked! I had to balance out the CK majority a bit, but I'm not *really* succeeding... *g*
