It is so wrong to just never want to have to remove a dead mouse, if in fact a dead mouse exists? I need to go check the trap but I want no part of it…at all. But that’s my job, right? I’m head mouse killer.
===5 minutes later===
AAAAHHH AHHHHAAHHHHHH!!!! I don’t want to be the head mouse killer! I saw that the trap had been sprung (this trap hides everything, so you just need to look to see if the metal thingy is up or not) and it had, and I freaked out. I considered calling my dad to come get it but that would have fed into the whole “helpless Jody” thing. So I grabbed a couple of plastic shopping bags (one to use to get the back box, one to put it in…and the little tail was sticking out! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I almost dropped it, but I think that would have given me a stroke right there in the closet.
He’s gone now, but I have lost my appetite. I may not eat for days. Gah. What a big baby I am. *washes hands for the 4th time*
Here’s the one thing that bothers me most…people REUSE these traps?
