so apparently we are gross people. i was eating my pumpkin pie tonight, only to turn my head when i hear a noise and see a mouse staring right back at me. completely unafraid. belligerent creature.

he had no intention of going anywhere, so aaron got out his pellet gun. it was awful.

i'm not sure if the fact that we have them makes us gross people, or the fact that my husband shoots them with a pellet gun.

does anyone know a humane way to get rid of these things? they are cute, i don't want to kill them. i thought about the no-kill traps, until aaron reminded me i'd have to check them daily so they don't starve to death. that is probably unrealistic.

off to nevada tomorrow. pouring rain here; chance of rain in death valley: 0% all week long.
