LOL! You had me in tears laughing! The second year after we bought this house, I opened the dishwasher to load it up....looked inside and saw a field mouse! The blood curdling scream that came out of my mouth had all members of the household, running down the stairs to find out what in the world I was screaming about!
By the time they made it down the stairs, I was outside...yup I was gone!!!
Of course the mouse was no where to be seen.
The (now) ex finally saw the nasty thing a few days later ...plugged up all the holes in the basement, got mouse traps and caught not one, THREE! Good thing I didn't see another, I was ready to put the house up for sale....sorry not stayin in no house with mice....I can't stand the things! Same goes for bugs, if it isn't a dog or cat, and it has more than 2 or 4 legs, it aint stayin in my house!
