I used D-Con until one of my victims decided to curl up and die behind my computer monitor. After that I got a little mousie-sized Hav-a-Heart trap.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

flea, I'm sorry. That's no fun. Would it make it any better to tell you that we recently had to rescue a possum from my 91-year-old grandmother, who was beating it with a shovel?
No, really.
FTR, the possum was unhurt, if a bit stunned. We got it into a trash barrel and released it in the woods.

Our wings are not tired.
Great stuff! It is very much fun to use, but don't get it in your hair. Yes, this warning comes from experience.

We are going to try to stop up the entrance hole with the foamy insulation in a can stuff.
That helped a lot at my old apartment.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Stoopid double post. But this is worth saying twice:
Happy Birthday to Raquel and Kathy!

Mousetraps are better than both gluetraps and poison. I have had mousies die in the walls and smell, from poison. We remodeled the kitchen, ripped out the sink and found an old mouse's nest with teeny little baby mouse skeletons in it. I felt so awful. And if you've ever dealt with a mouse stuck to a glue trap...
...it's a horrible,horrible slow way to die, for any creature.
Um, and on a completely different note,
Happy Birthday to Raquel and Kathy!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Brynn, holy moly. I never, ever knew this before Googling it six seconds ago, but it's not Wilde. It's Wilde's lover, Lord Alfred (Bosie) Douglas, who in addition to being Wilde's boytoy was a very minor poet who wrote one truly great poem "Two Loves." The final stanza goes:
What is thy name?' He said, 'My name is Love.'
Then straight the first did turn himself to me
And cried, 'He lieth, for his name is Shame,
But I am Love, and I was wont to be
Alone in this fair garden, till he came
Unasked by night; I am true Love, I fill
The hearts of boy and girl with mutual flame.'
Then sighing, said the other, 'Have thy will,
I am the love that dare not speak its name.'

ION, OUCH OUCH OW GODDAMNIT MARCH, STEP OFF.
I just got a call from Hec; he's in a local ER with Emmett, who took a hard baseball to the face at very close range, has a blood-gushing broken nose, and never wants to play baseball again, ever.
FUCK YOU, MARCH. HANDS OFF THE BOY, ASSHOLE.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I no longer ever use poison, because of the number of times I've had to deal with dead rats and mice in my house. When you trap them, you know where they are.
Great Stuff works really well, but wear gloves and clothes you don't care about.

Crap. Poor little Emmett!
