askye, so glad it went well and wasn't stressful!
Once I get my world a bit more stable, I've got to travel to meet some of you folks.
Connie, I have a nice comfortable spare bed, if you don't mind cats.
So one day she put food coloring on a q-tip and stuck it in the trap and painted the mouse's belly. Sure enough, same mouse.
Hell, at that point, it's a pet. Put it in a box and name it George.
I think it's the same 2 stinkbugs that come inside, and then we catch them and release them [because if you kill them, they stink], and then they come back inside. Although I guess we could flush them.
I grab them in a tissue and flush them. No stink. Catch-and-release is for bugs I like, like praying mantises.
askye, I'm so glad this finally went well for you, after all the worry and bad communication beforehand. I understand about the terrible fear of being perceived as a less-worthy person because of a missing tooth. In fact, when I came to Bitches with my own teary fears, I think it was Teppy who calmed me down. And I'm so glad Will's been with you through this when you needed him.
Maria, I'm glad you're getting some factual closure, and I'm thrilled you have a new someone in your life, who's good to you.
I agree people are scum. StY was present when his best friend accidentally shot himself in the head. They were both 16. The friend's family accused StY of having done it, despite all the physical evidence. They followed him whenever he went out. His friends rallied around and made sure he was never alone. The parents stopped him on the street and yelled accusations at him. He was sixteen, and had just traumatically lost his best friend. People can suck. But all the great kids who supported him, and the rest of the family, proved that people can be pretty great, too. I'm sorry you had to deal with Rob's parents, on top of your own grief.
We seldom had mice at the old house, mainly because of the cats. We've had a few here, usually one or two every fall, but traps and vigilance keep it down to that.
Good grief, what an awful experience for StY at such a young age. I'm glad he was surrounded with love and support.
Florida is always a nice winter escape, Connie and others. Always have room for visitors.
Once I get my world a bit more stable, I've got to travel to meet some of you folks.
I'd love to meet you, too. Wherever I may be at that point.
What do we think about a F2F this summer? I'd be willing to pimp KC...
I can testify to Strix's KC tourdiva skills, fwiw.
I'm glad it went so well, askye. Take a painkiller before the Novocain wears off.

YAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
I took Alieve first (per the doctor's instructions) but that didnt' seem to help so I took the pain med he prescribed. And I think I'm due for another dose. But now I'm wondering I also need to take my klonopin and I now I'm wondering if it's safe to take them tonight or if I should stick with the Alieve and if I wake up in pain take the hydrocodon-acetaminophine.
