I caught it outside!
Thursday, February 26th, 2009I was after a mouse in our house when mom said “last call to go outside.” I couldn’t pass up that opportunity–the morning is a night away. So I went with mom and the others.
I may have missed the mouse in our house, but I caught one outside during “last call.” Sometimes I give mom a little bitty teeny tiny problem when she wants to go back inside before I’m ready to go–but not tonight. I went willingly.
I went straight to our bedroom, and mom never saw what I had in my mouth. She must have gotten suspicious; I bet it was my playing with the mouse that made her come in the bedroom and turn on the light. I guess I was making too much noise. All I was doing was throwing it a little ways from me and then grabbing it in my mouth and throwing it again. We were just playing.
When the light came on, mom caught me with it in my mouth. She didn’t yell at first, but when I wouldn’t drop it, she got that mean and angry tone in her voice; then she yelled. I knew better than not to mind her when I hear that voice. I dropped it immediately even though I was on the bed at the time. Mom got a tissue and picked up the little worse-for-wear creature. She took it outside; I think to the garbage can.
I can’t believe she took my little playmate away. She sure knows how to take the fun out of anything.
